Historical Study Notes
about the F-100 Super Sabre Jet Fighter
F-100D Super

shot entirely over the green hills of Vietnam in 1967. This nearly

My name is
John Rebecek and I crewed the F-100 from 1961 to 1964. I was stationed at
Cannon AFB for 4 years during which we had TDY"s to Turkey in 1961-1962,
Saudi Arabia, in 1963 - 1964, and when the Vietnam war broke out in August
1964 we deployed to the Philippines than to Thailand and than on
to Da Nang. I Left Da Nang in November and returned to Cannon where I was
discharged in December. I enjoyed crewing the F-100 and going to all
the different places. We usually had 2 or 3 deployments a year in the states
for fire power demo's or war games. I was a member of the 522nd
Tactical Fighter Squadron when I first reported to Cannon and then we were all put into the 27th
TFW maintenance group and would deploy with whichever Squadron in
the Wing that needed us.
