Ah yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! While on the Indy, had an F-4 dump fuel
on a cat shot and Air Boss called F-4 off the bow eject your on fire.
To make a long story short one F-4 had just launched off cat 1 the one
on fire went off Cat 2 and the air boss did not say which cat, so we
lost two that day.




That is one hell of a story! It deserves more than five lines,
if you are feeling up to typing it.

1972 or 3 I'm guessing

Everyone fished out OK?

Some ejects can screw a body up... did the riders
get back on the horse after that?

Whose record did THAT go on (realizing some bosses might
have a relative in Congress)?

Lot of good hardware lost to Davey Jones!
