The last one out of the launchers made an immediate turn from near-vertical to horizontal, sped off across the desert at about 200 feet, and then, about a mile away, it swept upward into a vertical trajectory and hit the inbound SCUD at about 5,000 feet. It was like the biggest July 4th firework you've ever seen and the boom knocked me on my ass. The Patriot guys came into the chow hall the next day and we gave them a standing ovation. One of them sat with us and explained how the system worked and said they had hit the "stop" button just as that last missile left the launcher. They needed to keep some ready in case another SCUD was on the way. Luckily, that night, it was just the one.

Rick was a lot better singer and he didn't wear a stupid looking hat or have a last name no one could understand.
Trahern?
Plus Rick could shoot straight and didn't need a scatter gun. He gets my vote

Only year from 7th to 12th grade that I had to take finals.

Bastard went on to be an editor at Saturday Evening Post.



How my '77 looked when I bought it.

Similar to the pair of CVEs seen at the end of "Magnum Force." I lived nearby and remember seeing them from the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge. 1972-73.
