Second Hit Parade:
Continuing the
tradition, the HMM-362 class of 66-67 also kept score. This
was taken in the Ky Ha ready room. John "Fang" Longdin is the
pilot in the picture. Notice the leap forward in technology.
No longer a reconditioned K-rat carton, the new guys graduated up to
painted plexi-glass. The white object at the top appears to be
a template to better mark the stars and hearts.

their collateral duties after the day's flying. Here they are
