This is the second installment in a two-part series on the military career of Cesar “Rico” Rodrequez. Fighter pilot Cesar “Rico” Rodreguez recorded his first Mig “kill” during the Gulf War on Jan. 19, 1991. Seven days later on Jan. 26, with blinding sand storms swirling at up to 50,000 feet and violent thunderstorms creating near-zero visibility at up to 40,000 feet altitude, Rodreguez recorded his second kill. He recalled, “In terrible weather like that only high value asset aircraft monitoring the air space and those of us who protected them were airborne. We had just flown north of Baghdad and were ready to turn south when one of the AWACs (Airborne Warning and Control Systems) informed us that Iraqi engine activity had been confirmed at one of their western airfields. So we headed southwest to assess the situation and if need be protect our high value assets.
