That dude in the khaki flight suit is about to drop the SUS upside down - idiot !!!I'm gonna toss out 45 degrees as a first guess...but maybe 42? View attachment 30412View attachment 30413View attachment 30414:
Wait...what?That dude in the khaki flight suit is about to drop the SUS upside down - idiot !!!
I thought you're supposed to throw it like a nerf football, the one with the fins at the back- unless the guy in the pic knows something we don't or maybe it doesn't really matter.Wait...what?
In helicopters the AW usually just threw it out the door. Or tied like four of them together and dropped them out the hellhole.I thought the fins drug it out and it was already nose forward...
Great, now the Ruskies and CHYCAPS know how we launch our super-light-weight-micro-torpedoes.The OCD in me says you drop it nose down. In reality, it corrects in flight and impacts the water correctly.
That's a cool hat.I figured this was up there in the mancave/buying dumb cool shit realm. I got an old school Navy wool hat a while back and was seeing what else was out there, when I came across this USS Hornet Apollo 11 repro. Pretty neat historical throwback if you have more money then sense.
I saw that one today too, but I started with buying this one From SMWholesale a while back. Fits great, nice and soft out of the box. Looks good with my gold AOs. ? Now, does anyone have a bead on some wash khakis?That's a cool hat.
Did your search start with Ebbets Field USN hat?
When I was Mini the Air Boss had one of those he wore around the ship. He put an officers crest on it to make it legit. Big XO liked it so much he got one to call his own. When I left the Air Boss signed his and gave it to me as a gift.I saw that one today too, but I started with buying this one From SMWholesale a while back. Fits great, nice and soft out of the box.

These guys also make Quint's hat from Jaws!!!I figured this was up there in the mancave/buying dumb cool shit realm.
