I have decided on a paint scheme for my -7 and plan to honor a fellow Wisconsin native, Capt Edwin James (Jimmy) Fickler and his B/N Lt Robert Kuhlman from Richmond, Indiana who went missing in a Marine A-6A on January 17,1969 in the A Shau Valley, Vietnam. I spoke with Capt Ficklers sister today and she gave me her blessing which I was happy to get coincidently on Veterans Day.
The reason for my post is to see if there are any past or present members of MAG 11/VMA(aw)242 on this board. I am looking for any pictures, information, etc to help me honor these men to the greatest extent possible. Capt Ficklers sister will be sending me some photos and I would like to get in touch with a relative or acquaintance of Lt Kuhlman. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you Veterans!
