Hey, I can't remember everything. I'm not sure I've seen the Scooter
or the combat Buckeye in the pattern, now that you mention them. I
think I've only ever seen one Scooter, although I did get to see Ed
Heineman talk about it once, along with Kelly Johnson, who talked
about the Zipper and the Habu.

I did forget to add the S-3 and the B-70, as well as the C-5, C-141,
KC-135, and KC-10, though.
