Viagra est la pilule la plus connue pour le traitement de l'impuissance chez les hommes. La molécule active de cette fameuse pilule a été à l'origine identifiée par le Laboratoire pharmaceutique Pfizer qui conservait l'exclusivité de la fabrication et la commercialisation de la viagra jusqu'à l'expiration de son brevet. viagra cialis levitra

To the son of Major Wayne Fitts. Yes I met him except they called him Scrote. Just so you know, he was probably one of the finest aviators to ever ride double ugly. I believe he was a graduate of Fighter Weapons School and a hell of a good guy.

I served with the 106th Squadron in the 117th from 1954 to 1959, crewing a Douglas B-26 and then the Republic RF-84F photo recon plane. I left in 1959 and joined the Army for active duty.

My dad flew RF-4's out of Birmingham til they were retired in 94. The year before, one of his buddies crashed one of the planes and died, which is one of the reasons they were retired. If anyone here ever met Major Wayne Fitts, email me, and I'll hook you up.

My dad was in the old 117th. He retired from it in 1995 I think. The 117th the world class. I hate to see the 117th go. My dad was a jet engine mech. I live real close the the b'ham airport from 1973 till I moved in 1991. I missed the roar on the f4 on wedsday night so bad when i moved i couldn't sleep.

RB is correct, once an RF4-C, always a RF-4C. They served in the Gulf War in 1990 / 1991 and continued to fly in the 117th at BHM until May 1994. Some were drones and some were storage at Davis Mothin, Az.

Greetings...I'm a 12TRS alumni from Vietnam times (1969-70). My nickname was "Baby Huey" (from "Baby Lieuy"), given to me by Major Andrews, a unit RSO (RF-4C). Why not? I was 6'3" tall and 200 pounds-taller and firmer than any toothpick "butterbar" at Tan Son Nhut AB serving in those days. I heard Birmingham got our PPIF (I was a photo/infra red interpretation officer in those days in 'Nam) vans and stuff after the war. Questionm: Can any Birmingham folk lay their hands on an AlaANG lapel pin-sized insignia? I'll explain later.
