On August 29th 1985 four F4D's from 160TFS Alabama ANG and two from 128TFS Georgia ANG visited Soesterberg. They were on deployment in Spangdahlem at the time.

What a great time we had in the late 70's and (early) 80's. And what a great pictures in this thread.

I will start to contribute every now and then. Here are 3 slides.

April 1980: at that time old and new, now it's historic and old. It was very late in the afternoon and the quality is not very good, but still nice.

May 28 1980: a visitor from Hahn.....

.....and a Soesterberg Eagle

You can see the 38+23 just behind the 37+69. Unfortunately, I just went out off film... :wink: Talking about taking a day off from school. This EB-57 was sure worth the risk!
