Join us today for an enthralling journey with Steve Dixon, author of 'Keeping the Peace Marine Fighter Attack Squadron 251 during the Cold War, 1946 to 1991' and once a squadron member himself. Steve takes us soaring through the annals of the Squadron, illuminating its rich history and global deployments with anecdotes from his time with the Squadron during the Cold War. You'll get an up-close look at the array of aircraft they flew, from Wildcats and Corsairs to the speedy F-4 Phantom and the advanced F/A-18 Hornet. His accounts, laden with fascinating facts about the Squadron from its activation in 1941 to its deactivation in 2020, echo the Squadron's motto, "Semper Fidelis".

We then navigate through riveting accounts of the F4 intercepting the T95, and the Squadron's transition to the F-18 Hornet. Steve also offers a window into his time stationed at Yeh-chan, South Korea, and his subsequent career designing conflict simulation games, that's bound to keep you hooked. The episode concludes with a hands-on discussion about Legion War Games' Skyhawk game, touching upon the quality of the materials used and the gaming experience. Make sure to check out the unboxing video on our YouTube channel and, as always, thank you for joining us on the Pilot Photon Podcast!
