Dan, he's said that he's flown fighters, and that the Fellowship is a real
organization......the only thing notable by its absence is his
identification
with any of the military branches, foreign or domestic. But, since he
doesn't
want to talk about it any more, my personal guess is that he was a test
pilot
for Chance-Vought or Republic or some such and is a little embarrassed by
his
failure to wear the uniform. Google has found a lot of stuff with his
name on
it, but absent in every one of them is any reference to military service.

My conclusion, therefore, is that he didn't have any and, by so pointedly
trying
to avoid mention of the subject, only succeeded in having us become aware
of
what he'd rather we not know about him.

In any case, he's quite obviously quite knowledgable about flying fighter
aircraft and, phony or not, has much to offer his fellow members of RAM on
those
subjects, and it would undoubtedly not be in our best interests to run him
off
for that minor lack. After all, we can't all be heroes like us Troop
Carrier
pilots, can we? (^-^)))

Sorry there ole'buddy; like most posts of this kind, you're way off base.
Air Force. Non pilot. Public record galore. Unrelated to flying history
which came later so no need to expand.
All the best anyway :-)

Dudley,

Your replies are more gentlemanly than your critics deserve. I don't know if
you were an officer, but you certainly are a gentleman unlike many of your foul
mouthed critics.
