I'm a happy camper today and I'm not even in my old canoe out on Little Lake! Received a gift from my old 87th FIS Phase Dock supervisor Billy Marshall, MSgt (Ret) today, which has made me forget for a moment all about the crap we're dealing with from North Korea! Here's my new (old) 87 FIS Mug Bill donated to me with a photo of F-106A 57-0241 as a backdrop. The 57-0241 photo was take by James Wuepper and presented to me for my assistance with the Sawyer Six Museum Project several years ago. This photo here with the mug I took just now. www.f-106deltadart.com/photo_gallery/var/albums/87th-FIS/87FIS-Mug-with-570241--0.jpg?m=1365650919

Neat....... Those guys at KI presented me a great photo of that A/C as well... What is really neat about your trophies is they were presented by your former boss.... Means he thought very well of you.... Has anyone really stopped to think about what this Irishman in Korea has made with his forum? What if those stories that will be told at WP in Sept were added to those here in forum? ?? There is more history of the F-106, FIS and ADC here than any place else. In fact, there is history being told in every topic and thread here. That's right, even in purgatory, there is history- you can find our generation's thoughts on what has happened to the world we spent so much time protecting..... Thanks again Pat Mc........

Thanks Jim. I am somewhat amazed at just how big we've gotten, and it's not the membership that really reflects that, it's the references I see all over the Internet. Facebook, although I know many here don't partake, is always abuzz with references, photo's, stories of and from the site and everyone on there knows to refer here. When you do a Google search on anything F-106 related, aircraft, units, patches etc, not only does the majority of the results come up with www.f-106deltadart.com links, but other websites that come up almost always reference us here. Good stuff, who would have thought.
