Very nice! On page 3 is a familiar name: "Major Charles P. Winters" HAVE IDEA pilot. This is probably Charles P. "Pete" Winters. He retired in 1988 as a Brigadier General, Deputy Commander of Electronic Systems Command (ESC) at Hanscom AFB, MA, west of Boston (Lexington-Concord roughly). His career encompassed an interesting array of fighter and fighter-test assignments. His Bio (
http://www.af.mil/information/bios/bio.asp?bioID=7630) shows him as an Edwards Test Pilot from 1970 -75 and again specifically assigned to AFFTC Det 3 (Groom) in 1979 and Commander from May 81 to a new assignment in Mid 83.
The story is that he is the "Pete" referred to in the "Pete's Dragon" markings on a prototype F-117 (Squadron-Signal In Action book maybe?).
As an anecdote, I was in his office once at Hanscom as part of a team presenting a briefing for a communications system (for a visiting RAF Air Commodore!) around 1987. On a credenza behind his desk there was a wooden plaque-like stand with 3-4 Russian fighter aircraft control sticks on it and a plate saying something like "From the Red Hats, Doing Everything with Nothing" and a unit insignia with a bear wearing hardhat with a red star on it. He saw me looking at them and I mentioned to him that I had supported the Nellis Adversary Threat Training Facility. He replied: "Then you know exactly what they are, don't you". We had to get back to the presentation and that was that.
