A few years ago, Robin Olds was on a documentary describing how he had fought long and hard with the Pentagon, who were sure the day of dog fighting was over. It was going to be
missels only, and the SecDef's decision was final.
Fast forward a couple of years and Olds and crewman are going "Downtown", into a bit of flak.....
Old's allegedly tells the GIB not to worry, because according to the Pentagon , it wasn't happening.
Like Douglas Bader and others, Robin Olds was a man either loved or loathed. Whichever side you take, he was a leader, who his men would follow.
