    Ed Ramous wrote a book about his flying in the F105. He is shown in this film as he completes his 100th mission. Later he talks about being an instructor pilot with a war injury limp. It is a great read.

    My uncle Jack piloted the F4 phantom in Vietnam, as a kid I was in awe, thank you to all who've served and who serve today, it's human nature to forget quickly and I think many don't appreciate the ones who served and the many who died for our freedoms, we are overdue for a major war and it will happen sooner than later, then a whole new generation will be reminded of the sacrifices for freedom. 🇺🇸

      BS! These guys WON the war in 1973. The Demonicrat Congress gave it back to their buddies in the North in 1975. The South was sold out by the American Congress AFTER the Vietnam war was WON by the military.
