Yes, after coming back from Vietnam, I got involved in Technical Intelligence (foreign material exploitation mainly) - I am one of those few who really have been to Area 51 - at that time we had a squadron of soviet Mig fighters and other soviet equipment (like SAMS) that we spent untold hours and $$ understanding them and their weak points. Needless to say, it was critical that the Soviets not know what we had or were doing or they would have taken counter action - like changing there IFF frequency, missile guidance codes, etc.
I had a great Air Force career - not a boring job in 26 years.

I'm TDY to Davis Monthan and had some time to kill so drove around the boneyard and saw these interesting old MiGs ... Sad that all the premier a/c I grew up loving and admiring have now all been retired... Doug
