It's an F7F Tigercat, not a bearcat, you look kinda like Nicholas Cage (he's a dick, too) and your beautiful wife can obviously kick yer ugly ass. ;)

Nice pics!! Best sympathies to the missus!

Uh gents. May I point out, for those with photoshop capabilities the rampant possibilities in at least ONE of the above photos. This could be far better than Nielsens floppy photo! What's more is that the requisite hour has passed and he cannot recall the photo from the bbs.
DEFINITION OF A VETERAN
A Veteran - whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve - is someone who, at one point in their life, wrote a check made payable to "The United States of America", for an amount of "up to and including my life."

No, sorry Nilsen. Thought I'd got one but was using crappy AVS camera and it didn't come out! Next time I visit I'll try get some. Bought new Digicam now.  Duxford houses the fighter collection and they have a fine example of the P47.
