Narrative:

At approximately XX25 I departed virginia creek in small aircraft with 1 passenger for fairbanks. I taxied back to make a takeoff to the northeast and made a radio call stating my intentions to takeoff to the northeast and departing for fairbanks. After airborne and a few mi out of virginia creek en route to fairbanks, I again made a radio call stating that I was off virginia creek en route to fairbanks. Both calls were made on 122.9 which is the local area advisory frequency. At approximately 10-12 mi northeast of virginia creek I noticed a military A10 flying low level along the same river that I was flying down. At that time I turned on all my lights and the A10 turned to fly in the opposite direction. A few moments later I saw another A10 coming up the river low level beneath me. I was at approximately 1000 ft AGL. I didn't see a problem because he was well below me and on the west side of the river and I was on the east. When we were within 1/4 mi of each other the A10 turned straight toward me and made a climb. I made a hard roll to the east and asked the pilot what the heck he thought he was doing. When I lost sight of the A10 he was 100 ft away and still heading straight for me. The A10 pilot never responded on radio and I feel he was not monitoring 122.9. It also appeared that he was looking down toward the river as he was flying up and not paying attention to traffic. I feel that I had done everything possible to avoid a collision and that if I had not been paying close attention and ready to make a quick response that both planes would have collided. After this I contacted eielson AFB range control and informed them what happened. They said that they would relay the information to mission control.
