In Topic: Where did "Him! Him!" originate?

11 April 2013 - 11:33 AM

I first heard it as a version of "Throw a Nickle on the Grass, Save a Fighter Pilot's Ass. First verse:

I'd like to tell the story about the Thunder Thud,
The bad you heard about it, is just a bunch of crud.
It took a lot of us up north and brought us back again
And the man who speaks against it will hear our mighty hymn.
HYMN, HYMN, F--K HIM!

New book about the air war over North Vietnam by a F-105 fighter pilot who flew 144 1/2 missions. It's the memoirs of then Capt. Billy Sparks. He flew as a strike pilot and a Wild Weasel pilot.

There's some typos in it but overall it a good insight into the life of a fighter pilot during the war along with some comments about the leadership.

Strike 2.

They tried this about 40 years ago. Same result, they pulled the plug because it didn't work.
