Total air dominace (well at least above 15K) Are they firing rockets 2.75/3.0 or guns? Doesn't sound like guns (no ziiiip). I'm assuming it's a Hornet (if it's Navy, what else). What am I missing? Concur on the flares. Looks like a 8-10K pickle. If they're shooting rockets it probably isn't CAS Snake, plus those two camera operators don't sound like JTACs. B2 Permissive environment.

They could be Marines, and remember the Marine Corps is just part of the Navy.....(Incomplete sentence will, follwing a semi-colon, permit Marines and former Marines the chance to complete it, with their usuual refrain.) To the Navy Team, on Saturday your signal is "Buster" - Golf Oscar / November Alpha Victor Yankee / -- Bravo Echo Alpha Tango / Alpha Romeo Mike Yankee !! Hey all you Army guys,

You know, put a little "From x Batt, Y Infantry Co, US Army, Iraq" graphic up, and then the final run with the appropriate cheer. Would beat the heck out of those staged things they do.

Thanks for the clarification... In olden times however...the observer,the target and the air platform often had a much more intimate relationship.
