Re: Col-Tomb toon

As Vietnamese sources have not identified this pilot (where they have identified many other fighter pilots) it has been suggested that he was non-Vietnamese and that the Toon/Tomb callsign was associated with foreigners.

While it has been suggested that this dogfight never took place (which is why the Vietnamese have never written about it), but Driscoll's reputation for veracity remains high. With Cunningham getting out of federal prison, he may have more time to go over the events of 10 May 1972.
