| Comments: I didn't serve in VA-12, but my father did.
He apperas on your '77 and '78 roster lists. I still remember him taking me to the air base and letting me sit in the Vought Corsairs. I sent him a link to your site and hopefully he'll visit. I live in DC, so he may just go to the next reunion. V/r, Nathan |
