Salute!

Great story, Beagle, love it. And best tactic for the VooDoo was head on face shot. Best thing with the Genies was we carried two. The Falcon heaters both went same time, so you were done.

No problem, ex-fast. Two countries separated by a common language, and my flight commander in F-102 training was Sqd Leader Cowley, a Lightning troop. The Dick Wharmby in my A-7D sqd at The Beach back around 1974.

Hey Bubba and others, we had some code word during our exercises when NORAD would give the secret code ring to RCAF so they could release their warshot Genies. I was just a nugget, and did not understand all the politicks then, but that had to be a serious decision for the RCAF command authorities. Seems it was like Hiawatha Arrow, and many code words had native American connections. 'course Cokec Pistol was big, then there was ... there was....
