John- Hmmm... Tuttle must have been friends with Chuck McGrail when McGrail
was CO of
Midway in the early 80s... EMCON recoveries (day and night) and "stealth
transits" were routine for a while! BRBR

Was it McGrail that had us fly daytime/EMCON but you couldn't go outta sight of
the boat?

A true 'FAGAT'...fly around and get a trap?

One A-7 did and got lost??
