Amphib decks commanded by SWOs ? by
Mike Weeks
Does anyone have any knowledge (general or otherwise) as to when the
USN changed its policy regarding authorizing surface warfare officers

Was Harpoon ever integrated into A-7 Corsair II? by
KDR
Was Harpoon ever integrated into A-7 Corsair II? I've never seen a
picture of A-7 with Harpoon.
And I'd appreciate if anyone could post a link to the McDonnell Douglas
PR photo showing a late production F-4E carrying four Harpoons -
probably dummies - under its wing.
