Border Adventures of the Redcatchers

[BFVGunner]

DeWayne,
The pics are awesome. I really like the shots of the Hind D. I was active duty army from 87 to 91. I was stationed in South Korea 88-89. We had the DMZ mission so the pictures bring back memories my time patrolling on the DMZ. Wish I would have taken some pictures but I was told not to. So being a young private I always left my camera at Warrior Base.

Take care,
Jimmy

Jimmy,

The numerous shots of aircraft shadowing the Soviet & DDR counterparts the Mi-8 Hips, Mi-24 Hind Ds and the L-39 Albatros are all of particular interest to me. I am also a fan of the Air Force's intercept missions over Alaska where the F-15s intercepted the Soviet Tu-95 Bear bombers. I am glad that you found the pictures of value.

Sincerely,
DeWayne

Uscob,

Do you have a number of border warning signs? I dont suppose you'd be willing to part with one?

Sadly nothing for sale anymore. I had several Sign's from Teltow Canal and Gribnitzsee, but my Spare ones are all sold since a Decade. The only spare ones I have are some Restricted Areas for Military Missions in the DDR.
FSB was the fmous Teufelsberg Station.

As my father said recently, "Back then those pictures of Hinds meant something, nowadays Hinds are everywhere"
