You’re right, Blackadder; and that is ‘less than optimal’ writing style. I had been thinking of Lacklen, who in one article notes he was 3 years ahead in seniority and hadn’t met Holland (which seems a bit odd, the BUFF community was/is fairly tight knit, and Holland’s antics were renowned. I spoke with people who had personally witnessed Holland pull his B-52 up into a near vertical climb at an air show in Kamloops, BC wherein he apparently flames out one or two engines on the top push-over recovery. Sad that the institution didn’t deal with him properly and his actions resulted in the death of him and three others, one of whom’s wife and children were present to celebrate the DComd’s retirement from the USAF.
