- I got my Blue nose in Late 1979 when I joined a team of Zoomies on a E3A flight above Iceland looking for some bad guys. Scary, probably because we had nothing to fight back with... Nice Crew on the AWACA too...

We were participating in a joint NATO (I think) exercise when we detected a Russian sub. We were broken off from the exercise and followed the sub up north of Norway as she went to her homeport.
