Records Show Bush Guard Commitment Unmet

I don't know that he ever got into F-15s. After he came back from Ubon
in '67 he pinned on Brig. General and become Commandant of Cadets at
USAFA. He served there until 1971 when he got reassigned as Director
of Safety at Norton AFB where he retired. He probably flew the
airplane, but never had an assignment as primary aircrew in Eagles.

I wish I could explain it - I know he was there! Our CAP unit visited and I
wandered off the tour (this was at Luke, I would think in approximately 1974 or
75?) -- Col Olds was definitely there, it was the first butt chewing I recieved
from anyone other than my parents. I thought he was the skipper of the
squadron, but in retrospect, I don't remember how he was introduced to us. We
toured everywhere on the base, including the flight line, Combat Camera, and
many other places - I was lagging behind at the ready room investigating the
photos of various aircraft from gun camera photos. He stood in the doorway and
snapped something along the lines of "who left (or let) this kid in my ready
room?!" and I got reamed pretty good for not staying with the group. I know it
was him - just not entirely certain of the date of it happening. I'm certain
it was during a tour of the 555th at Luke, and they were immensely proud of
their brand new Eagles.

Its always better to lose -an- engine, not -the- engine.
