I am the grandson of John "Andy" Anderson. I know he flew with the 604th 69-70. If anyone has any stories with him, I'd love to hear them.

I was with the 604th from jan 69 to jan 70, loved working on the aircraft I still have all my patches, I was there when the aircraft was grounded for a crack on the wing spar a team from the states came over to supervise my roommate peter and two others guys went to the alert pad until we got caught having to much fun, then it was back to the flight line.

To all A-37 veterans - I was a member of the initial A-37A Combat Dragon group that deployed to Bien Hoa in July 1967. I was a S/Sgt comm technician. Please feel free to drop an email and let's catch up a little. I would be very interested in hearing where everyone ended up and how they are doing.

Salutations to all Dragonfly nation, the Dragon is still being used by our nation, itīs really a formidable and very confidence deadly living legend, and the oneīs under their attack learned to respect it too, you can hear comentaries from the counterparts about the way they ran to hide when the Dragonfly apeared, we respect all the antique Dragonfly pilots and crews and their comments, in all itīs part of many nationīs history.

I was with the 604thSOS from Jul 68 to Jul 69. I flew 306 combat missions. We had the best maintainance and support. We often flew in the most adverse conditions to support the ground troops. The A-37 was a stable and accurate munitions delivery platforms. We had a great mix of seasoned pilots and young bucks. We did our job well and it was an honor to serve with such great patriots.

In reference to #23206- Hello Simmons! Glad to know you are still alive! I was crew chief on 509 and my pilot was Major Anderson. I recall kicking your butt at the NCO club...maybe it was the other way around? Long time ago....Palermo and Calbeck would remember I'm sure. I was known as Iob the terrible back then...changed my name for some intoxicated reason. Before we get too old why don't you Email me at tablerockjack@gmail.com so we can talk about old times. Anyone else from 68 to 70 at Bienhoa in the 604th make contact! I think we are running out of time so I hope you guys that are still alive will start comunicating!

I believe complete A-37A or B airframes can be bought for about $50,000 each plus shipping and handling if three to ten are bought.

Was assigned to the 604th ACS from Aug. 68 thru July. 69 as a weapons mech. If anyone can remember me, they would remember me as the squadron drunk. Been sober for quite some time now and would enjoy hearing from some of the guys from then. A-37 was one of the easiest aircraft to load and was heck of a plane. We did major damage.
