not as striking as the others, but a challenge none the less. had to resize and print many of the decals because they were way too big and some were missing altogether.

Commander Fleet Air, VF -121, Miramar NAS, San Diego, CA

Turns out Col Olds used to visit Mirimar on a regular basis during his last assignment as IG of the USAF, to do some unofficial flying.
