Personal Memories
Memories I was working Transient Alert. We prepped all the EF-111's that left RAF Lakenheath, and I was then the End of Runway Supervisor. My team and I looked over every F-111F and EF-111 that left RAF Lakenheath. We then were the first ones to touch/inspect each one that returned. Alas one did not. I think one diverted for maintenance problem.
