| I can't remember where this picture was taken, but it was on my
orientation flight shortly after arriving in-country. We had a load of 2.75" aircraft
rockets and we tried to get the pallet moving fast enough by pushing it to get it to slide
far enough down the ramp so we could dump it off to the side. We failed. The aircraft
commander, Dickie, has one of those typical "so what are you going to do?, send me to
Vietnam?" poses, while the flight mechanic was off trying to find someone with a
vehicle to pull the load the rest of the way off. Those suckers are really heavy! |
