Historic Vietnam War photos - 1972 Mig Killers

[Liberator]

Found online is a stunning set of photos 96 in all but about 70 are related to USAF in Vietnam ... Mig Killers colour showing aircrew, F-4 Phantoms, F-105G Thuds, KC-135 tankers and based life at Udorn.

Many photos ive never seen before showing Mig Killers at work and play.

I am lucky to have had books signed by Chuck and Steve in the late 1990s. They are truly rare items alongside other Mig Killers like Madden.

Enjoy the photos and gain a glimpse into air striker, mig caps and heros.

What a great slice of time! You wonder how many of those folks survived and are alive now, you can see lots of them are running on adrenaline. The semi degraded slides especially the air to air stuff is kind of interesting in a negative space and color shift way.
Nice find.

Thank you for posting this link. After viewing the photos I was able to identify the only unknown (to me) F-4 crewman in a photo I have of several members of the "Triple Nickel" 555th TFS. His name is Mike "Cisco" Francisco. Sadly, a quick search showed he died on Veterans Day two and half weeks ago.
