Exceptional - brings back many memories.
I was in UPT class 65G at Reese AFB. When I got there I found I had a well established reputation in the local pubs. It seems there was a student in 64G with the same name but 'J" instead of "A" as a middle initial.
He was shot down and became a POW a year before I arrived in Vietnam .
It amazed me how many friends thought that was me.
I salute him and the sacrifice he made.
