Good story. I can see it happening with some luck.
Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.

The RA-5 Vigilante was one hell of an awesome Navy recon plane. RVAH-12 along with my squadron (VA-55) operated aboard the CONSTELLATION during it's 1967 Vietnam deployment. Always exciting to take a position in "Vulture's Row" and observe the "Vigi" and other aircraft launch from the catapults.
