Jack Cook,

Thanks for the great pics ... When I was at the Suwon Bomb & Gunnery Range (aka "Turkey Trot") we would occasionally get a night fllight of 5 Corsairs off a carrier. One dropped parachute flares (the lamplighter) while the other 4 bombed our large rock out in the Yellow Sea.

Brought one of the flare parachutes home and plan on embroidering some items pertaining to my time in the Far East.

Thanks again.
