Lieutenant (Junior Grade) Michael J. Foley on
the USS Constellation and the Air War in Vietnam

Welcome to my blog! At the request of my son, I have written several stories about my service as a Naval Aviator flying
off the USS Constelation and the USS Coral Sea during Operation Rolling Thunder, the air war. My flights
were mostly in North Vietnam in the mid-60s. Retelling these stories was somewhat theraputic for me. The people who read the
stories have told me they very much enjoyed them. I want to share them with you. I now
know that I would like to hear other veteran's stories,especially about Vietnam. You all have some interesting event or
happening that you remember. Now, I want you to share your war story with others. You can grade my war stories, and others
will grade your stories. It should be fun. Give yourself a chance to be a story teller. My Vietnam
war stories are over 40 years old. They may have been embelished, or I may have forgotten some correct details, but
nevertheless, I think you will enjoy them. Some are five or six pages, and some are longer. Read my war stories and then send
me your stories. Give it a try. Click on War Stories on the navigation bar above.
This weblog is my attempt to get others to tell interesting war stories. I hope you will enjoy reading
the stories of flying the hostile skies over North Vietnam on the site and will contribute your own for our reading enjoyment.
Lt. John McCain, lower right in photo, taught me how to fly
the T-2 Buckeye. I was his first student.
