[MilCom] Blue Angel #6

[baycomm at earthlink.net]

Being on the San Francisco Fleet Week Committee I had the pleasure in 
meeting Kevin (Kojack) Davis last year as he was the Narrator flying #7. 
  He was also the one who comes out early the weekend of the air show to 
meet with us & give us a complete brief.  If you don't know #7 also 
gives the DV and media rides.  From Oct 3 thought Oct 10, 2006 I had 
several meeting & conversations with him.  What a great American, Naval 
Officer, and a tribute to the BA's and The Navy.  The Navy will miss him 
and so will I, as I was looking forward to this October to talk with him 
again.  Don't know if you know all the pilot jobs at the BA's are for 
two years.  The Narrator narrates for one year then fly's the #6 jet his 
first year in the show & in the second year flying #5.  God bless his 
soul and my condolences to his family and ship mates.
