That's my favorite plane! I was stationed for 5 years (1983-1988) at England AFB, Alexandria, Louisiana - past home of the 23d Flying Tigers.

As a Supply troop, I had the honor of working to get parts to make sure the A-10s could fly. If they were down for mission critical (MICAP) parts, I was the one that worked like a dog to get the parts in so the maintainers could fix 'em and get 'em back in the air.

Tuff wee beastie, that A-10...
