Photographer’s remark

80-0173 This is not the sight you wish to see in your rear mirror, if you are a hostile driver of a tank. The 30mm polished gun is directly pointing towards my camera. Unit is the 355th Fighter Wing based at Davis-Monthan AFB in Arizona. Please note also the wrong tail number painted below the cockpit!
