We started with 'Cash' Barber, WWII PBY pilot. He had a great recollection of those experiences which was greatly enhanced by shooting the piece in the National Naval Aviation Museum.

Speaking of the museum, Deputy Director, Hill Goodspeed, discusses an artifact from the Vietnam War.

The last clip is from Bruce 'BA' Dillard, former Blue Angel and father of JD Dillard, Director of the Korean War movie 'Devotion'.

This episode has a very Topgun leaning focus. We start with former Topgun instructor, Dan 'Bad Bob' McCort as he relates an incident in his F4 Phantom, that might have had something to do with General Chappie James.

Followed up by Mikal 'Butch' Kissick, Topgun graduate and 'World Famous' F-14 RIO.

We wrap up with CAPT Chandra 'Mamasan' Newman and the making of a call sign.
