Only his friends call him Tony, so you should use Merrill.   

Actually, when we covered him at the Pentagon, he used to ask us reporters to call him Tony. Those with non-military backgrounds were fine with it...the rest of us had a very, very hard time breaking the habit: "Yes, General. I have a question, General. No, General." And so on.

Then there was the silly twit from one of the TV networks who kept calling him Mr. McPeak...

[Hawk200]

You not allowed to say his name.....if you must refer to him....you can always call him Meril or Tony!   

Could have called him what I usually do, but there is a profanity filter.

Jim, you apparently missed my sarcasm. 

But. that's OK. It happens a lot. 

As an aside, what do these folks have in common?

Shield was standard for SP's at the time the beret and the bone .38s were a SAC elite guard measure done by LeMay.  And any other badges such as jump or AFSC badges would be placed above any earned wings.

All fighter pilots?
All members of the USAF?
All flew the F-100?

On a side note....my Dad was an Aviation Cadet with Dick Rutan...true story!

Close. Where did they all fly F-100s, at different times?

My head is crammed so full of useless trivia random information that an old friend of mine once said I needed my own Jeopardy! category:

Alex, I'll have THINGS ONLY I KNOW for the Daily Double...
