As time goes on, I'll be adding some great A-10 videos, including some original footage from Operation Desert Storm. For now, let's take a look at the A-10, and what it can do.
Here's a great video that shows, firsthand, how valuable the A-10 is to ground troops.
Here's a little A-10 action that will kickstart your heart:
The Tent City where we lived in the desert wasn't a deluxe hotel, but it was certainly sufficient -- and far better than many folks had. My squadron, the 511th TFS "Vultures" had, among its ranks, some talented musicians. One of them, Tom Abbott, later joined Operation Encore and has since contributed his significant skills to a lot of beautiful songs. Here's one he wrote and performed. It's also a great video, containing cameos of some of the Vultures, and of course, the A-10! Enjoy.
