We had a couple of Phantom pilots who served in RVN who were still flying in the early 80s.
One guy named Guttenrichenheimenberger <or something like that...we just called him Major
G+13
> told a neat story about attacking boats with an F4 incountry. Apparently he got all
of them but one but ran out of ordnance. He decided to drop a wingtank on it just for giggles.
The guy in the boat had just seen all his buddies get wiped out and then the jet comes back
and drops what looks like the biggest bomb he's ever seen at HIM! G+13 said he wasn't even close,
but the guy in the boat bailed and the boat continued to sail on down the river.
