Change of Command Ceremony Yongsan AFB South Korea 1967

Found this in my dad's slide collection.

The new general had a sense of style.

 

That was loaded with cornering lamps .

 

Previous dude had a plain jane full size chebby, probably a govt car, poverty caps and not much else.

Guy taking over shows him up with his personal bad-ass fully-loaded wildcat with shiny chrome road wheels.

well played.

 

Yeah its only taxpayers money . He might as well be Comfortable , we are paying for it .

 

Actually, that one was most likely his personal car. The govt would pay to ship 1 car when you were transferred, I believe.

My dad took his 65 barracuda. Sold it there to some idiot who totalled it in a ditch.
