Great shots. Incredible to think that they’d just open the gates to enthusiasts at events like this. As many people have already said, amazing days sadly never to be repeated.

Great memories. By that date the "Drawdown" was in progress. 81st TFW at Bentwaters/Woodbridge disbanded & UH/CR didn't have long to go.
Question about Ramstein's Squadrons 512th & 526th In the F4 days they had separate roles. 512th air to ground & 526th air to air. When they re-equipped to F16's, did both become multi role?
