Photos from my recent detachment to Naval Base Ventura County,Pt. Mugu. Missile Shoot

I'm on the hoist (yellow fishing rod).
























Four AGM-88 HARM went flying that day. Sadly, it was my last missile shoot with the squadron as I'm PCS'ing down to VA in a few months. Also sad because it was my turn to be a QASO (Quality Assurance Safety Observer) or Team Leader this evolution but due to manning issues I had to post up on the fishin' rod to give someone who will be there longer the experience. All in all, great fun, even if the other VAQ squadron couldn't get their shit together. Waiting for in flight video of the launch to come back from the aircrew and when I have it I'll post it up.

I got to admit, I'd love to work on that stuff.

It's more of a pain in the ass than 3S's are.
