Some great shots on there, John. Just a note because I don't think they've explained anywhere: The BUFF is a B-52, called so because it's a Big Ugly Fat F***er--first heard of that from a book about the Vietnam War. If anyone knows the origin, I'd be grateful.

Edwards AFB is in California?

Thanks for the memories, John. Neat thread. I'm not sure that Leon Uris coined the phrase, but there is a lot of 'terrible beauty' on that site.
