Today is WINGER DAY!

[RichLundeen]

This is Winger's day. The 100th birthday of powered flight. The day Orville and Wilber gave you guys something with which to make all the smoke and noise.

LIFT 'EM UP!

Happy 100th Birthday Mr. Airplane!

My dad crewed with 163 and 365 from 67-68. The eyes are a trade mark of the Ridgerunners. Great airplane, I wish I had a chance to fly on one or even turn a wrench. He had lots of memories, and only talked about the "good" ones.

I have his deployment book from 68 (copy). I would like to scan it at some point and post it for other Marines.
