191St Crew chief and personal

Hard to believe it been 26 yrs since I retired out the USAF.   The 191St Six Pack.  Had great people in the unit. We where more of family than anything.   As I looked through the pictures ,I realized lot the people in photos have passed on. The Original 'Six Pack" ADC is slowly fading away.

191st RF-84

 Interesting photo.  I believe this aircraft was used with B-36 for long range photo recon. The inverted tail plane is a give away. 


Thanks to my mate Jamie for sending the photo

More ADF F-16 of the 191ST

 Find photos of the F-16 the 191st fig had. Is pretty tough. As they pop up I saved them in order to post these aircraft.

A tribute to old friend Gerry Bryd

 Gerry and I go back to around 1976. At that time we where both TARS in the Naval Reserve. Our Squadron was VP-93 at Selfridge ANGB, Michigan.


I'm posting this photo as a tribute to my friend Gerry Byrd. We where squadron mates in VP-93 for a number of years. I told him about the Guard technician jobs with the Phantoms and A7's. Few weeks later he was in the Guard. We enjoyed many a cruise killing brains at the club. Also in the barracks. I found out only a couple month ago he passed. Lasted talked to him, he was shipping out to Qatar. Fair sailing my friend. Gerry was an aviation tech on the F-4's and F-16s. He got riffed out to a office job. But later got back to the Squadron that now had C-130's

Unfortunately he pasted 31 Mar 2016.


Gary Kowalski, Linda Bullis and Gerry Byrd.

    Gerry was my soldering instructor. He didn't like my slobbering..............never did get "c or B' levels...........I think that's what I was going for.

191st F4-C early tail marking.

 My good Austrialian mate Jamie made these early tail marking decal.   The markings were on 534 for a short time.   Col John (Skip) Kimberly didn't like them.   So John Bullis modified the markings to what became 191st "Six Pack" marking.

191ST FIG Phantom pictures



This was the first design for the tail marking for the Phantoms.  John Bullis came up with this design.

The original 191St Six Pack

 The glory days of the 191St FIG.   The F-106 was an amazing fighter at the time it was in service. Without wing tanks the Six was unbeatable.
