Lahr August 9 and 10, 1967
Today 55 years ago I visited the joint French/Canadian Air Base of Lahr. At that time the 3rd Escadre of the French Air Force was still based there with their Mirage 3E's before moving back into France after their withdrawal from NATO.

Re: Lahr August 9 and 10, 1967
What's that on the centreline of the F-104s? Recce pod?
In this world there's two kinds of people, my friend. Those with loaded guns, and those who dig. You dig.
