Title: Combat Pilot Songs
Post by: Widewing on April 11, 2014, 12:08:19 PM

Many by Dick Jonas, the balladeer of fighter pilots... Dick flew Phantoms and completed 125 missions in Vietnam. He earned the Distinguished Flying Cross with two oak leaf clusters and the Air Medal with 12 clusters.

Scroll through the many pages of songs, they will play on your machine.

I have most of Jonas' albums. I like this song, especially.

One great lyric. Flying CAP for a Jolly Green on a rescue mission....

Pull that pipe from the gashole, tanker, let me go!
I got a buddy on the ground up north in Route Pack 4.
