Hi there, long time ago the squadron was my first duty station. I was an AQ3 assigned to AIMD.
Served with the squadron 1978 to 1981. Flight Deck AE Troubleshooter. Best of times. I run the Thunderbolt reunions. Just had our 5th in September. Planning another along with VA-85 and Forrestal Association to co-incide with the Air Show in September 2014.
I served with VA-176 in the Ordy shop from 1979 until our return from the IO/Med cruise in June of 1981
