The VMFA-112 F/A-18 Hornet, known also as 'double nuts,' is proudly
displayed in front of Meacham Airport's Vintage Flying Museum where the
3rd Annual Cowtown Warbird Roundup was held in Fort Worth, Texas, Aug.
12. MAG-41 commanding officer and pilot of double nuts, Col. Juergen
'Baron' Lukas, said of the interaction between the veterans present and
his active-duty Marines, this may be the first time that these Vietnam
veterans could talk with someone who understands their point of view
and that have shared similar experiences. From one generation to the
next, this can do nothing but help Marines who are currently involved
in multiple deployments in support of the Global War on Terror. Photo
