Guy and Ed,
If you are interested in all things Weasel, Ed Rock's book is now available
at http://www.authorhouse.com/BookStore...x?bookid=28149 .
Thanks for the link. The preview is very interesting, as the date shows that
it is describing the first attack on SAM sites after the first US a/c, an F-4
(or maybe it was an RF-4), had been downed by an SA-2 on 24 July 1965. A real
cluster**** by all accounts, and now we've got the details that explain why.

I saw some galley's of Ed Rock's anthology of Weaseling two years ago
at River Rats in Las Vegas. It should have some interesting stories in
the package--a lot like Don Shepard's "Misty" on the F-100 Fast-FAC
business.
For some more details on the mission in the preview, take a look
around p. 90 of Tom Clancy/Chuck Horner's collaborative work, "Every
Man a Tiger". Horner and Roger Myhrum were on the mission.
Yeah, now that you mention it, I remember reading that.
