    July 14, 1922-Robin Olds born, #American fighter #Pilot pilot & #General in @usairforce, "triple #ACE", 16 victories in #WWII & #Vietnam. Robin's wife wouldn't vacate lodging given me when I took Robin's position as #Director of #Safety. So I stayed in BOQ & Glennis stayed in CA

        Doing okay. Some small incidents that had my wingman, Victoria, on high alert but handled beautifully

        I remember watching a documentary on the History Channel about Robin Oldes. That was pretty awesome of him to erase a little of his mission talley, just to stay with his men. That's the kind of "Old Man" I would love to serve under.

        Gen Olds was one of my heroes. His personality, his leadership style, and his tactical prowess were unmatched in the skies over Vietnam, and Operation Bolo was one of the greatest campaigns in the history of air combat. I visit his Phantom at the @AFmuseum every chance I get.

        I came to love his deputy commander at Udorn, Gen. Daniel “Chappie” James. Did you know him?

        General Yeager knew him. General Olds came to be disenchanted with Chappie James
