About This Item

Across the Shannon River. Limerick Ireland

In the late 1960's my dad was a Navy Chief in charge of the mechanics for the transport plane that flew with the famed Blue Angels. He has since retired and is now living in the San Francisco Bay area.

While gardening recently, I excavated this diecast Blue Angels toy my now grown boys played with close to 20 years ago. It's a bit worse for wear, but I thought it would make an ideal travel item to honor my Dad's many years of service in the Navy.

We would be delighted to have him travel around so that my Dad can track his antics. Placing the TB near various Navy bases would be very cool. It would also be lovely if this TB could join our fine troops in Iraq. Please take lots of photos and descriptions of your travels so my Dad can enjoy following Blue Angels' journey.

Ultimately, he should pass through Pensacola, FL. A signature from a current Blue Angels pilot would be wonderful. If that's not possible, a photo of the TB in the area would be nice.

Please return the little guy to the San Francisco South Bay. Thanks!

    Wow - this TB has sure traveled far in a relatively short time! Don't think I can help it achieve it's goals, but I can move it along. Maybe someone else can help!

    Changing containers so am moving this to a cache of mine with a bigger container- we will be in the Pensacola area in Feb of 2011 but I suppose you wouldn't want me to hang on to it that long-
