David L. Ferguson standing in front of F-105-F/G 63-8306. Note the great paint job done by Butch Waller and his grandson, Brian.

This is the first time "Ferg" has seen this bird since his last combat mission in Vietnam 38 years ago. He only flew it once which

was on his last mission. This aircraft was also one of the "Firebirds" on the Sontay mission.

Dave Ferguson sitting in F-105-F/G the first time in 38 years. No one was even shooting at him!

A meeting of the minds? Big discussion at the apex. Butch and Ferg.

Mark Trimble and Jim McCain with the L-2 used for rides.

Butch Waller and Brian, standing by with fire truck. They are the Silver Wings rescue squad.

Plane pen. F-5 and F-100 visible on the left side.

Group on the Severe's porch, getting rid of the extra beer, and putting away the BBQ.

Chow line at the BBQ. Check the loaded plates! The Texans said this BBQ was better than in Texas. Beth could have

given them the secret recipe, but then we would have had to kill them.

Banquet at the Crescent Hotel. As always, a great event.

Class 61-E along with their beautifull wives. Would you believe that all of us still have our first, and only wife!

Errol Severe presents the first "Silver Bullet" awards for outstanding volunteers. The recipients are L-R, Butch Waller,

Brian Waller and Frank Andrews.

Our guest speaker was Dave Ferguson. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed his most interesting talk.

Don Knutson, a great stand-up comic from 56-V, has everyone rolling on the floor.
