The challenge here is to name the movie that it starred in, and what it was called in the movie. Extra points if you can name some of the jet's supporting cast. ===================== Boots were made for walking Winds were blowing change Boys fall in the jungle As I Came of Age

Specifically what model, type of ordnance slung and how can you tell? A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance.

The 10th TRW RF-4C's were at Alconbury until 1987 when the 1st TRS shut down. Most of the newer RF-4C's at Alconbury were integrated into my squadron at Zweibrucken (38th TRS), making us the last Tac Recce squadron in Europe. The rest of the RF-4C's from Alconbury were sent stateside. The A-10's came to Alconbury around 1988, maybe late 1987. I was there TDY for a month in April 1986 and then for a couple days in 1987 and at that time they had the RF-4C's, Aggressor F-5's and TR-1's.
