Sub...I was incorrect - Olds only scored 4 MiG kills in Vietnam, a fifth would have brought him back to the land of the big PX and a publicity tour.  He was a triple-Ace, though with his 12 kills during WWII.

I wasn't thinking Olds at all.  Since the aircraft only had two kill marks I thought it was somebody else's. Thanks for the info, pyrman!

Subby...that's Gen Robin Olds' Phantom - he was the first Vietnam ACE!!  I met him at the 1997 IPMS Nats in Columbus.  Great guy!
