1st Lt. Karl Wendell Richter
21 september 1966 werd Richter de jongste piloot ooit die een MiG-17 neerschoot. Tevens is het een van de 5 piloten die meer dan 200 missies boven Noord-Vietnam hebben gevlogen. Hij had zich zelfs voor een derde tour opgegeven.
Op 28 juli 1967 werd zijn toestel getroffen en moest hij zijn schietstoel gebruiken, hierbij werden zijn beide benen gebroken en kwam hij hardhandig tegen een scherpe rotsformatie aan. Tijdens de evacuatie is Richter in een Jolly Green gestorven aan zijn verwondingen.

Republic F-84G Thunderjet
Thunderbirds, Luke AFB, 1954
Captain Jack 'Motto' Broughton was the only captain ever to lead the U.S. Thunderbirds team. The team used 4 different kind of planes during Broughtons leadership. During the Vietnam war Broughton unwillingly retired from the USAF on August 31, 1968, with 43 separate awards and decorations, including four Distinguished Flying Crosses, two Silver Stars and the highest Air Force decoration, the presidentially-awarded Air Force Cross. Broughton avowed that his proudest accomplishment was being combat-qualified in every Air Force fighter from the P-47 to the F-106. Broughton is author of 3 personal memoirs (Thud Ridge, Going Downtown and Rupert Red two). Two of them were about the Vietnam War and were highly critical of the direction of the air war there and the rules of engagement. These books are compulsory reads on most military academies over the world.
