I grew up in Valdosta GA, home of Moody AFB. At the time, they had Phantoms. They have A-10s now. One of their regular routes took them right over my house. Saw (and heard) them all the time.
In fact, one of my teachers at Valdosta High School flew Phantoms in Vietnam. He told a funny story- They were on their way back from a mission, expended all their ordnance. Spotted an enemy convoy on the deck; Having no ammo or bombs, they just dove, hit supersonic (Phantoms could do that), and hit them with a sonic boom.
Worked on avionics on USMC F-4’s in the 70’s. Loved the full afterburner takeoffs.
