The Gunfighter's Site.
There was lot of talk in the news about patriotism last month because the national election is coming up. Swift Boat veterans from Vietnam have a problem with John Kerry. I went to school with John and knew him. He was a senior. I liked him too, but his classmates didn’t. I was an underclassman and was astonished someone with his stature would even talk to me. That’s a subject for another posting, though.
Stollenwercks were represented in Vietnam by Commander Stolly Stollenwerck, F-8 Crusader Jet Fighter Pilot. The Crusader was the last U.S. fighter designed with guns as its primary weapon. Read all about it at The Gunfighter’s Site. Great pictures and lots of links. Go here to see pictures of Commander Stollenwerck then and now (1996).
