Aerospace Defense Command Spittin Kitten F-106 Christmas card

Roger sent this to me one Christmas after I had left Minot for the Academy, probably 1978, but I included it here with the poem.

The all-weather F-106's would have been used to intercept Soviet bombers on the way to attack the U.S.


Aerospace Defense Command, F-106 Touch & Go

A trio of linking triangles
tires to tap and cross again,
rolling a turn aloft,
as if a thing advancing
from some other world.

Another slight of air amazing,
where wizards of night and weather
practice as our protection.
