    Thanks for your kind words. One reason I added a blog is that is can help two-way communications between the visitors and myself. Another is that I can add stuff that does not seem to fit in my “regular” pages. Come back often and leave your comments!

  5. Dear Administrator,

    I myself come from a country in the other side of the world, as far as Taiwan is concerned. Military aviation had always attracted my interest. It would be fair to say that it occupies a large proportion of my spare time. With that in mind, ROCAF is definetly my “favourite” air force. There are not many cases around the globe that a country’s independence depends so heavily on airpower, and Taiwan is a prime example. Furthermore, ROCAF’s achievement and mission is underlined by the fact that Taiwan is a bastion of freedom and progress in a volatile area. Please, keep us updated on every development regarding airpower in your beautiful country!

    P.S.:I would be most greatful if whenever possible comments where posted in English. Unfortunetely, I have no command of Chinese.

    Thank you very much for your comments! I will try to write posts in English as much as possible. But if the content of the post is of interest only to local readers or when I want to elicit comments from local readers, I will do it in Chinese. In that case, please forgive me.

  9. 張兄，

    您好，過去在美國的時候我們曾經聯絡過，不知道您是否還有印象？您離開美國的時候還贈與我一些您以前拍攝的照片。

    有件事情想請教一下。過去一年多我花了一些時間在中文版的維基百科的撰寫上面。在撰寫一些條目之後，令我非常頭痛的一個問題是和國軍有關的照片基本上是缺到極點。

    政府對他們的照片的版權是不開放的，而我目前也沒有自己的管道可以直接拍攝國軍的裝備，連IDF的照片還是不久前一位網友自己慷慨捐贈才有的。

    因此，我想請問一下，您是否願意把某些照片的低解析度版本開放版權，成為公共領域的財產，以便使用在維基的條目上面？如果您可以允可的話，詳細的部分我們可以另外以email商量。

    我在我的blog和MDC的討論區都有提出呼籲過，也希望手上有照片（現役或者是退役的都可以），願意釋出低解析度版本（高解析度的版權仍歸擁有者），放到維基上使用，相信會讓許多資料有更多的可閱讀性。

    感謝。

  10. 我上星期六有寄mail給您，請問您收到了嗎？基本上我很樂意幫忙，至於細節上要怎麼做，請用email告訴我。謝謝！

  11. Dear Mr. Chang,

    How are you? Just found out this fantastic blog which included so many detail accounts and events on ROCAF. I was grown up as a ROCAF dependent at one of the many dependent living area at Pingtung. My dad used to flew with 10th TAG and subsequently promoted to the commanding officer of 439 Combined TAW or sometimes been called The 6th TAW which at that time included 10th TAG, 20th TAG and an Anti-submarine Tactical Group. (Two E-2C squadrons). I used to hear so many stories about General I, Fu-En who my brother help wrote and compiled his memoir and stories regarding 34th squadron which most of the pilots, navigators and radio operators were recruited from 10th TAG to flew B-17, P-2V for mainland reconnaissance on the earlier days and later flew C-123 for Vietnam missions. So, I have seen a lot of my childhood mate’s dad die for this country for doing many dangerous assignments. My dad, himself also has been sent to Vietnam flying C-46 to help Vietnamese government during late 1969. Hopefully, you will have more articles or stories posting regarding 439th Combined TAW in the future. My sincere salute to you for all you hard work and endeavor on this blog for ROACF. Take care!!!

  12. Mr. Chang,
    A typo error that the two Anti-submarine squadrons should be equipped with S-2 instead of E-2C.

  13. Jeffrey:
    Many thanks for your comments and for your kind words about this blog. If you have interesting stories/photos about your father or his unit that you want to share with all of us, I am more than happy to post them here!

  14. My blog was hacked. I am not able to save new posts; but I can comment. Many WordPress blogs are experiencing the same problem. I am not sure when or if it can be solved. 🙁
