Nachtwulf Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Excellent! Thanks for sharing! I used to watch Hogs fly over my house @200ft while they were doing TnGs at ft. Huachuca Az everyday. I wore a path in the grass from running outside every time they flew over! what is the top marking on the vertical? It looks like a uniform ribbon.

You would have to look up the unit's history and awards for that. Could be several things but you cant tell from this picture as it is in camo. Generally you can always determine what the award is by the color pattern. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smudge Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 I didn't realise there were different coloured 'tapes'. I'll have to look out for that. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SleeperService Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Beautiful images. Thanks for sharing. I grew up in Suffolk and the 81TFW A-10s were a daily sight if not sound. Good to see some in other markings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
