Well unfortunately the time has come. Thursday the 21st will be my last day with the old girl. So I need a new name. Heres the deal, the best suggestion will win you a 104th FW Farewell To the Hawg unit coin. names such as \"Biggest Dickmunch Everrrrrrrrrrrrr\" will obviously not be accepted. Thanks guys.

WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!? THE OLD BATTLE SCARRED BIRD IS GOING ? SAY IT ISN'T SO!

Man I have to take a minute I find a GREAT FRIEND and the \"Old Girls\" keeper and now I'll have to search again.
Billy that Jet has been a \"BITCH\" at times with her Problems, but most of the time She's been \"A GREAT GIRL\" She has an impressive record, a TANK ACE 5x's over seen alot of action and has 2 \"V\"'s on her OSU Award with clusters
I spent 6 years of my life \"Keeping the \"OLD GIRL\" and it was my \"BEST TIMES IN THE USAF!\" Always brought back her Pilots, taken AAA South of Baghdad came home and back up again,
Billy you took care her for alot of years , and back to Iraq so She had the Chance to \"Scratch some more Rag's\"
So there will always be that Bond between us no matter what you do now,
You will always have a Friend with Us.

As far as your Name if your getting a F-15 either go with
\"BeagleDawg\" or \"Snoopy2\"

But I have to give You and the \"Old Girl a Salute Billy


GOD's SPEED TO 80-0166 and may her New \"Keeper\" have the Pride and Joy that we had working with her

Sniper I have to stay. My options are real limited as a technician and although I'm not real happy about Eagles I would like to be a \"three framer\". So I am going to stay, start working on a Masters in wither European History or Air Warfare and be a guard bum for the next few years.

Why not stay with what works? Just because you are parting ways with her, doesn't mean you aren't her CC...same as Goose.

Raven's right. I still use 80-204 even though I haven't crewed that jet in almost 4 1/2 years. Keep the name. We'll just add \"Guard Bum\" under your name.

Yeah I definetly wanted to but I dont think I am going to be able to get all the stuff by then.

If you guys gather the info, scan any images you want to include, I can build a webpage and put it on the Warthog Pen for whoever gets 166. I can make it public or hidden so only the new CC will have access to it if that's what you want.

Where is Hawgwild he should be able to help us out finding out who the new CC will be? Hawg166/Goose maybe one of you guys would want to post a "Shout out" to him in the Hog Chat section or send him a PM.

Hell even if he doesn't want the info I would love to build a webpage on the history of 166 for the Hawg Pen. Heck with Hawg166 and you Goose we can track 166's history from the 23rd TFW, and Desert Storm, to Hawg166 and Operation Iraqi Freedom....I think that's worth doing...how about you?

I'm in , Dice is it going to the \"Hawg\" guys or \"Moddy\"????

Just got of the phone with Goose. As has become the custom here at Barnes, I got the Razor Back patches of the pilot's flight suit and he got 166. She should be halfway to her new home about now. I am very happy that the guys in Arkansas are excited abput having them.

Well after talking to Billy, 166 looks like she's getting a \"Good\" home and they want the Hawg's Badly .

I would of liked her \"Wearing\" Teeth again but a \"Razor Back\" is pretty cool too.

So on to the Next Story in the \"Old Girls Life\"
