Pilot attempted ejection; Unsuccesful. An investigation was inconclusive. Pilot: Maj. Bruce "Phoid" Netardus, WSO: Lt.Col. Wendell "Sheik" Johnson

I was thrown off by your first post saying the WSO was the only one who died.
Wendell....yep....that sounds familiar
Sorry to dredge up old memories.

I started off mainly at night and then we got switched up quite bit - day, night, night, day, etc... You should have stopped in and said hello in the old 'Tent City'
