Just thought Id put this link for the adventurous to watch. It's about the Red Flag war games out of Nellis AFB, Las Vegas Nevada. As a young 2nd Lieutenant in the USAF I started my USAF flying career at this base. Now with over 2,000 hours in the F-4 Phantom II jet fighter, this movie made me homesick, wishing I was again airborne. I have flown in dozens of these Red Flag missions over a number of years. Yes indeed,the best training any military member can get anywhere. It is also very dangerous. It was an acceptable loss to lose at least one aircraft and it's crew every Red Flag. I have lost many great friends during these missions. All were hero's, that I am proud to have served with.

Don, this webpage of Fountain Green is absolutely amazing. You have captured some pretty fun events. I loved seeing the cloggers of yesteryear, Jerry's kids and especially the Live Nativity. Thank you for doing it. It is great to see coverage like this for a great town. Melba B. Jacobson
