With the crew of "Thunderbird" at Lackland or Randolph AFB in 2003. The folks from LSFM have ALWAYS treated me nicely. Waaaay back my family and I used to talk to the older Mr. Gregory - and sit under the wing of the Dauntless during the afternoon show. He was always friendly to us young'uns and that has always been a good memory. Mr. Lawrence on the left in the picture is a great guy and we got to sit with him in the nose of the B-17 one year when it rained at the show. Not to many folks were sticking the rain out, but we got to sit in the B-17's nose and talk history for a little over an hour in a rain/low clouds situation that reminded me of the what I've read about England! Waaay too neat.
