I knew your dad. Vern was a great pilot and a real funny man. I just recently saw a vid(30 yrs of Airattack) that had a water drop at Hollister. In it, it referred to your dad and that person said that he/she really missed him. But I don't know what became of your dad. Opening as few wounds as possible I really would like to know what happen to him. I remember Vern, RO, Jim, Steve, Norm and Paul, and your dad was always the one that made that place real interesting.
Thank you, Don

Yes I'm pretty proud too. Do you feel like lying and telling him we are on good terms? He's hanging by a thread and that would make him v happy. It ain't no sin to make a dying man happy.-Jennifer Schindele Campbell

They look like the same basic airframe
for the E-2 HAWKEYE.

I dearly miss the sound of the S2's at the Grass Valley Air Attack base, lumbering overhead, engines straining to gain precious altitude. Miss the sound, but when I see the new turbine models hauling ass a good thousand feet higher, well, sorta makes up for it. Almost....
T-80 is my Dad! Best most legendary tanker pilot EVER! Vern Schindele!
