I remember when I was 9 I met one of them at an air show and got him to sign my hat (can’t read the signature). Ever since then I always knew I wanted to be in the Army. 10 years later here I am, but not a pilot like I originally planned lol.

I got to meet a few of them a couple of times. They did a thing at the 16th street baptist church in Birmingham for a few years. That was always great getting to see those guys.
