Back in the days of the Whales, everybody got into the plane-washing fun (especially when the "shops" contributed to these events to support squadron social activites). Here's CDR Tom "Wraith" Brennan (then a LT) doing his part. |

CAPT (Sel) Richard "Swank" Schwenk (then LT Scwenk) loves polishing his Whale---when the AE Shop "pays"---as well. |

Just another fine Hania day of being incredibly cool for Tim "Turtlehead" Curry and Troy "BT" Nichols. |
