Join us next week on The Dog Tag as we host Vietnam veteran LTC Steve Brown. Steve served in the Air Force from 1968-1991, completing twenty-three years as a pilot. Steve had a very distinguished career in the Air Force. As a new pilot, he paid his dues flying a Caribou in Vietnam. He graduated to the B-52, flying bombing missions during Operation Linebacker II.  After negotiations for peace talks bogged down, President Nixon ordered the bombing of Hanoi. Operation Linebacker II was important because it forced the communists back into serious peace negotiations. From the B-52s, Steve joined a very elite group of pilots flying the U-2 reconnaissance plane.  Armed with only a camera, Steve would fly over Cold War hotspots, shooting pictures. It's a story you won't want to miss.
