During the restoration of my 1951 M38 US Army Jeep I felt a need to search for any family members who had served during the Korean Conflict. I found 2 cousins that needed to find out more about. Wanting to honor them on the hood of the Korean War era jeep i wanted to find out their story. Capt Al Agan was a USMC reserve fighter pilot during WWII and in Korea. Reaching out online for information I was contacted by Major Grasselli who had served with Capt. Agan. He told me about his article in "The Hook" that ran in the summer of 1989 issue. He also told me about the book that had just been released by Lt Col DK Tooker called "The Second Luckiest Pilot" It was a book of stories of Adventures in Military Aviation. One chapter in his book told of Capt Agan last flight and the effort by Lt Col Tooker in trying to help Capt Agan survive. His book was released in 2000. I couldnt believe how this all fell into place. I bought the jeep in 1999 and had it restored and back on the road in the summer of 2000. I contacted Lt Col Tooker and obtained a couple of his books for my family and also for Capt Agan's two sons. Fredrick & Micheal. Lt Col Tooker was gracious enough to inscribe our books. I feel honored to do my part keeping the memory of Capt Agan alive. Also would like to thank Maj Grasselli and Lt Col Tooker for their kindness.

United States Air Force - McDonnell Douglas (Boeing) F-15E Strike Eagle - USAF 90-0256 (c/n 1196/E159)
The 20th Fighter Wing flagship F-16CM Fighting Falcon is parked on echo taxiway off the Shaw Air Force Base flightline, June 4, 2015, S.C. The tail of the fighter jet was recently painted to commemorate 50 years of the iconic Wild Weasel mission. The Wild Weasel concept was developed by the United States Air Force in 1965, after the introduction of Soviet Surface to Air Missiles and their downing of U.S. strike aircraft over the skies of North Vietnam. During the Vietnam War the Soviet SA-2 SAM threatened to halt air operations over North Vietnam. To suppress and destroy this threat, the U.S. Air Force countered with the courage and skill of the Wild Weasels, who flew some of the most dangerous missions in Southeast Asia. Fighter pilots are still using the aggressive Wild Weasel tactics in today’s air war, carrying out the legacy of the Wild Weasel in campaigns around the world. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt.
