    A, AIR & SPA ID SE CE MU REP SEU INT M AIRCRAFT COLLECTION From the Avenger torpedo bomber, a stalwart from Intrepid’s World War II service, to the A-12, the spy plane from the Cold War, this collection reflects some of the GREATEST ACHIEVEMENTS IN MILITARY AVIATION. Photo: Liam Marshall TABLE OF CONTENTS Bombers / Attack Fighters Multirole Helicopters Reconnaissance / Surveillance Trainers OV-101 Enterprise Concorde Aircraft Restoration Hangar Photo: Liam Marshall BOMBERS/ATTACK The basic mission of the aircraft carrier is to project the U.S. Navy’s military strength far beyond our shores. These warships are primarily deployed to deter aggression and protect American strategic interests. Should deterrence fail, the carrier’s bombers and attack aircraft engage in vital operations to support other forces. The collection includes the 1940-designed Grumman TBM Avenger of World War II. Also on display is the Douglas A-1 Skyraider, a true workhorse of the 1950s and ‘60s, as well as the Douglas A-4 Skyhawk and Grumman A-6 Intruder, stalwarts of the Vietnam War.

    INSIDE: • Change of Watch, in Commodore’s Corner • Work Party Wrap-Up • Chartering, Final Article December 2020 KEOWEE SAILING CLUB Sunfish Saturdays by Phil Cook The 2020 Sunfish Saturday Series consisted of eighteen races, spanning three separate Saturdays. The competition was fierce, with six of the 13 different racers finishing first during the series. Rod Andrew took top honors finishing with an impressive record of four 1st place finishes, two 2nd place finishes, seven 3rd place finishes, three 4th place finishes, and with a lowest finish of 6th place. Way to go Marine! Rick Harper finished a close second place with eight 1st place finishes. Of note, Junior member Cole Owens finished fourth! Awesome Cole! Besting Grandpa and Dad has to feel good?! Special thanks to Kip Goodman for serving as PRO for all three events and to her support team on race committee; Roger Benedict, Jan Cook, Tim Owens and Robyn Strickland! As with the Thursday Night Series, I strongly encourage those members who are tentative about racing, to try the Sunfish Saturday Series. It’s a really great way to join the fun and excitement of KSC racing! Commodore’s Corner Change of Watch 2020 has been a year of challenges, but also a year which has nudged us toward putting our time and efforts to the important things in our lives. This year has revealed what a treasure we have in the Keowee Sailing Club. Due to Covid 19, we will not be holding a Change of Watch Ceremony this year and that has caused me to reflect on the leadership at KSC and the people I had the opportunity to work with this past year.

  • The Phantom Menace: the F-4 in Air Combat in Vietnam
    THE PHANTOM MENACE: THE F-4 IN AIR COMBAT IN VIETNAM Michael W. Hankins Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2013 APPROVED: Robert Citino, Major Professor Michael Leggiere, Committee Member Christopher Fuhrmann, Committee Member Richard McCaslin, Chair of the Department of History Mark Wardell, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Hankins, Michael W. The Phantom Menace: The F-4 in Air Combat in Vietnam. Master of Science (History), August 2013, 161 pp., 2 illustrations, bibliography, 84 titles. The F-4 Phantom II was the United States' primary air superiority fighter aircraft during the Vietnam War. This airplane epitomized American airpower doctrine during the early Cold War, which diminished the role of air-to-air combat and the air superiority mission. As a result, the F-4 struggled against the Soviet MiG fighters used by the North Vietnamese Air Force. By the end of the Rolling Thunder bombing campaign in 1968, the Phantom traded kills with MiGs at a nearly one-to-one ratio, the worst air combat performance in American history. The aircraft also regularly failed to protect American bombing formations from MiG attacks. A bombing halt from 1968 to 1972 provided a chance for American planners to evaluate their performance and make changes. The Navy began training pilots specifically for air combat, creating the Navy Fighter Weapons School known as "Top Gun" for this purpose. The Air Force instead focused on technological innovation and upgrades to their equipment. The resumption of bombing and air combat in the 1972 Linebacker campaigns proved that the Navy's training practices were effective, while the Air Force's technology changes were not, with kill ratios becoming worse.
