Speeding Ticket Spoils 149th FW Celebrations

Post by Ian A.S. »

A proud day as the 149th/182nd Fighter Wing displayed for the first time, their Heritage Jet in special markings. This records its 65th anniversary , dating back to 1947, when 182nd was formally accepted into the Texas A.N.G. - later to be integrated into 149th Fighter Wing. Hence the Lone Star Gunfighter logo.- duties primarily F-16 training at Lackland A.F.B. San Antonio.
