Re: RAFS Rendesvous

Bill,

perhaps the presence of so much grey hair might intimidate all the youngsters

Won't happen.

Since the Tailhook Association came out of hack several years ago, the green flight suits rule. For example, at the Friday night "Bug" Roach Mixer, one will see ~6,000 souls drinking beer and harder stuff, eating heavy whores ovaries, and generally having a great old "Friday night at the O-Club" time. Of these ~6,000, about 5,000 are active duty folks.

The powers that be in Naval Air are wisely ensuring that at least one air wing is scheduled for workups at NAS Fallon during 'Hook, allowing busloads of youngsters to trek the 50 miles into Reno for the fun.

Owl sends.

Don't know; I'm not a "chief" just a lowly "indian." :-)

Concur.

Then, perhaps the presence of so much grey hair might intimidate all
the youngsters. -

>As you said, Reno is a great place for fun of all kinds. We always enjoy the scenic drive up the Sierra slopes from the SF Bay Area - the tourists have largely gone home and you don't need to worry about carrying chains at that time of fall.

"Snow" is a four-letter word and should be treated like all othe four
