I received information several years ago that my birth father was a pilot in the Imperial Iranian Air Force possibly stationed at Keesler AFB in Biloxi Mississippi in 1968 for TF training. I have no doubt that he probably has no idea of my existence, assuming he is still alive. My twin sister and I were born in June of 1969, so he would have had to be in the States in September/October of 1968. I have done alot of searching through pictures on this thread and the IIAF website hoping to see a picture that might look familiar. I have no name, but I'm just hopeful that perhaps one of the pilots from that time might be able to help me narrow down the search. I know it's a long shot, but I wanted to at least try.

Missing in Action since 19/07/1987​

posthomosly promoted to majorgeneral from 22 march 2003​

 

While at Point Loma USN boot camp SD-NTC, 1975, my Company 301 trained side by side with future pilots of the Iranian Air Force.

They were very squared away military men, very quiet, but respectful. Their march and drill skills were very good. We were very curious about them. Of course these were the last days of the Shah and we were pretty close allies. I think it would be good - if somehow - new leadership could return us to those types of relations. Very difficult since Israel would have to be part of the deal.

 

i realy dont know what should i say ???

 

Brave men lost their lives for IRAN ...
