I'm wondering what the "K-KILL" patch is all about? BTW, when LT. Col. "Mo" got his helmet off he looked like he was 13 years old.

I can't figure this one out. Is this some kind of inside joke? It's on a T-38 with 469 FTS on the tail, so I guess he's the squadron commander.

Loads of nicknames come from some very unflattering experiences, so it might take a beer or ten to get the whole story.  :o

On an F/A-18F from VMA-122 at NAS Fallon. I wonder what the commander's nickname is. Kind of makes you think, doesn't it?

"You don't become a professional simply by earning certificates, adding ratings, or getting a paycheck for flying. Rather, professionalism is a mindset. It comes from having the attitude, the ethics, and the discipline to do the right thing — every time, all the time, regardless of who's watching."
