Oh very nice Buck, we had a helo detachment every time we crossed the pond (Atlantic). I was a MK-86 GFCS tech so I playfully referred to you guys as "targets".

my name is david. as a young lad, the neighbors took to calling me crockett. decades later, with no provocation, the guys at the shop started calling crockett as well. he served 2 terms in congress then went and died at the alamo. im sure we could avoid more wars if more congressmen served as he did. anyway, I carry the moniker in remembrance of him...

My dad was a career marine and was stationed on Okinawa when he passed away January 1959 in a motorbike accident. This was after surviving WWII as a coast watcher (USN) and Korea (USMC).

I was helo Det on DD's, CG's and FFG's. Then I bounced back to carrier helos. I liked helos but I also thought of them as pretty slow targets. Lol

I also like the TravelinJ’s since my family’s names all start with “J”. But we haven’t traveled enough yet to go with that.

Cracks me up every time I see GE's commercial?

It was my call sign while flying for the US Army in Viet Nam.
I would also like to explain the patch. I don't know what happened that day, but a senior officer walked into the officers club one evening and said "those pilots thing they're Jesus Children." A pilot heard about it, or overheard it so he had the patches made.
My guess is that officer got a tree top level ride that day as about half our flying was at that altitude.
