A-4 Skyhawk. John McCain used to fly those. Lots of use in Vietnam.

Every pilot in Vietnam other than John McSongbird deserves the greatest recognition one can receive. McSongpussy became one of the greatest assetts George Soros ever had....

Well I always thanked him for his service and what he went thru.
Politically, yeah. Was no friend of the 2nd amendment or the Border Patrol.

A very uplifting song by Van Halen, and a spectacular video!
I actually wanted to be an 747 pilot for years, before I heard Jake E. Lee and then Eddie Van Halen... Haha. Neat write-up in the article as well.

Thanks for posting!

Propaganda at its finest.

Always like that one.

The Air Force also used to use "Eagles Fly" at airshows when an F-15 would perform. That was kick ass to see in person, if you knew the song.

The F-15 being, of course...the Eagle.

I like this version better....

Really reminds me of being in college...
Police in riot gear for a Van Halen show... Lol. And a year earlier they were dealing with the Rodney King riots....

Again, very uplifting song and a great video!
This is one of my favs as well.

I dig the backstage/interview shots, along with the fans being totally into it.
A band of Van Halen's caliber coming back for a club show at the Whiskey? Priceless!

I prefer their navel videos.

Each one is lovelier than the last.

Speaking of VH and the Navy, I always think of this from the opening night of the FUCK tour. The Navy portion starts at 7:07.

Very cool footage and I always loved this '91 clip!
A truly special era of Van Halen for me and a lot of others. Thanks for sharing and reminding me of it. I hadn't watched it in a while.

Cheers!
