I was in Curtis LeMay's Air Force (SAC) from 1956 to 1964. My first duty station was
B-47s and KC-97s. Later years B-52s and KC-135s. Flying status was great...paid an extra $55 dollars a month which was almost as much as my base pay. Anyway, I was fortunate enough to be on flying status from time-to-time. So yes, I flew on B-47s...but, never under a bridge (I don't think).
If you're interested in aviation please do a search for Captain John S. Lappo. He was an amazing pilot.
