| Roy Minut Tulsa, OK | I was wondering if anyone out there might have photographs of the QF-80's that were at Holoman AFB during the period of 1962 through 1964?
Any photographs of the QF-80's from other locations would also be acceptable. If you have any photographs and would like to share them please contact me at the above email address. I am willing to pay for any copies that are made. Thank You Roy 10/10/2006 @ 03:47 [ref: 14412] |
