Steve Bryan (Hermie)

Hermie was the smoothest pilot in the squadron, and he’s still the smoothest talker. Unfortunately, he left the Navy for a career in corporate management.

Paul Hvidding (Hvids)

Hvids is the co-creator of the film and was the organizer and leader of the Vietnam tour. He recorded many of the scenes in Vietnam that you will see in the film. After leaving the Navy, he worked in HR management in the energy industry, a lot like bombing.

Sandy Sanford (Ratman)

Jay Swigart (Dirtman)

Dirtman was the youngest Bombardier/Navigator during the Sunday Punchers’ Linebacker bombing campaigns. He filmed much of the combat footage you will see in the film. As a civilian, he was an estate attorney and Commodore of the Newport Harbor Yacht Club.

Bob Tolhurst (Trol)

Trol was the youngest Intruder pilot in the Sunday Punchers, but he spent more time (3300 hours) in the A-6 during his 26 years, finally as the Commanding Officer of VA-85. He tells the best war stories and NEVER exaggerates!
