The beginning of May a fellow Vietnam Veteran in the mid-west started the online "Vietnam Vets Radio" station. Vietnam era music is played 24 / 7 with authentic jingles and public service announcements played on AFVN. Remember "Chicken Man"??
At 8 pm CST (9 pm EST) is "Party Time" a song request show. It really is pretty good, especially the request show. http://vietnamvetradio.com/

Richard, I have a couple of pictures I need to upload of you with Jerry McKinsey at Dong Ha, April 1967. I had left 2nd PLT and was with the Alley Cats at that time. Just learned yesterday that Jim Ross has passed. RIP.
I think Ray Jennings can help Richard: (972-492-2587) or send Email to krayjenn@verizon.net any time.
Hi everyone, I have made it into the Black Cat family. The Cat`s have always`s been a BIG part of my life, as they have been for you. Was there in 1971 as 1st. plt. gunner. Flew mostly with Mr. Foster & Mr. Alvarado, Tucker was my crew chief. While there I was know`n as Big Jake. I hope some one remember`s me, ( in a good way) crashed June 10th,1971.
