A-37's in Diamond Formation Bob caught this unique image during a flyover at Bien Hoa in September or October of 1970. This could be the closing out of the 90th Squadron "Dice" or the 604th "Raps." The Raps and the Dice converged to become the 8Th Attack Squadron and we didn't know if we were supposed to be "Daps" or "Rice" from that point on. |

The "Day Room" "This one is in the day room at the barracks. A lot of good times happened there. That is Robbie Robertson on the right with the "Bud". Purify? holding the "Bud"in the air. That looks like Tom McCallum's form with the Gin on the left." |
