Jim Moschgat 10/4/2004 11:58:41 AM | As far back as I can determine, the 614th was known as the Lucky Devils, a name reflected in their unit insignia. I know that was true of the unit in later years when it was equipped with F-4s and F-16s, but I'm not sure how far back in history that moniker carried. |
