EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph captures the iconic Boeing B-52H Stratofortress 60-0008 of the United States Air Force, assigned to the 19th Bombardment Wing, with a humorous caption on its nose that reads, "Dear Rocky, not to win is a very Bad Thing." The image was taken during the March 1967 Giant Strike / Double Top, USAF / RAF Bombing and Navigation Competition at RAF Marham. The B-52H is parked next to another B-52F 57-0039 from the 93rd Bomb Wing, with resident RAF Victor bombers in the background. This particular B-52H, named "Flamingo Flier" with the 2nd Bomb Wing in March 1967 and later named "Lucky Lady IV" in 2008, was active with the 20th Bombardment Squadron in March 2012. The caption on the nose adds a light-hearted touch to the image, reminding us that even the most formidable military aircraft have a sense of humor. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the history of aviation and the camaraderie between the US and RAF forces during a time of joint training exercises.
