September 2005 - I had a great opportunity presented to me, to take pictures for Team Thunderstruck and the Idaho National Guard. My subjects included an A10, a Blackhawk and an Apache.  Feeling the wump wump of the Apache's blades as it came in close and the power of the A10 as it did a flyby is one of the biggest rushes I have ever felt. My heart was racing 100mph!

I am thankful to Jim Phelan for giving me the opportunity to use his camera for these amazing shots.
