Phantom Pride The Marine’s Warhorse

The F-101 Voodoo wasn’t just an aircraft—it was a Marine’s warhorse. Sleek, powerful, and versatile, the Phantom carried the United States Marine Corps through some of its most demanding missions. From close air support over Vietnam to standing watch during the Cold War, this jet embodied the grit and determination of the Corps. Its tandem cockpit held Marines who flew low and fast, delivering precision strikes and protecting brothers on the ground. Even retired, the Phantom still radiates strength, a reminder that Marine aviation has always been about courage, commitment, and getting the job done. Captured here with “U.S. AIR FORCE” markings, the Phantom’s legacy is shared—but for Marines, it was family.

 

My latest photography is now available for purchase at crsimages.pixels.com/, featuring prints, framed art, and more from my curated collections—though this one might be just for those who know the Marine Corps always flies the best.
