Jerry,

Thanks. I have most of the Dorr/Thompson books and the one on the F-84 and
the F-86s show no napalm, plus the F-84 book states in no uncertain terms
that Thunderjets only carried bombs and rockets. The one on F-86Fs indicates
they carried a pair of conventional bombs that could be dropped in a hurry so
they could go chase MiGs.
