Reunion. VA-122 Flying Eagles: Homecoming?

We are at NAS Lemoore in the Hornet Inn(Navy Gateway Inns and Suites) on Bon Homme Richard Street.
It was the Biennial VA-122 Flying Eagles Reunion. I was a FRAMP Student at 122 in 1985 for about four plus months. I was in training in the Airframes/Hydraulic Systems/Flight Controls/Landing Gear syllabus for further transfer to VA-147, The World Famous Argonauts.

It has been a long time...................................
We did a tour and presentation at the new version, VFA-122.
Erika Goodrich's picture is not on the board outside of the Ready Room yet.
The PAO was a little surprised that I did know her call sign.......................not to be mentioned at the present time.

Two of us also did the World Cruise on Kitty Hawk in 87, Me, AMH2 Errecart and AZ1 Taylor. PO2 Errecart and I were Argonauts and PO1 Taylor was Ship's Company in AIMD.

I took pictures.....................................yeah, go figure.
Here is a few of our gathering....................................

We stopped at the Memorial on Reeves Boulevard............................I knelt for a moment...............I shed more than one tear.

There were other bricks in this Memorial that are representative of my Navy Career...................

Tomorrow, Missus ORPO and I head back to the Desert...............................

I gave my Lockheed Martin Fighting Falcon Coin to the Fleet Reserve Branch 261 from the 416 AMU........................................It was the right thing to do.
