And a Salute to our older Vets (Vietnam, Korea, WWII, etc.) In todays military we are capable of dropping bombs that weigh as much as a semi in someones toilet or direct long range missiles over 1000's of miles in someones lunch bowl. I Salute the Men and Women who served before me that didn't have the technology we have today. Those Vets fought for our Freedom because of their Love for the U>S>A not college and benefits. SALUTE

I remember my first day of training when our istructor went around the room asking everyone why they joined, everybody was saying college, benefits, etc. He got to me last----I said because I Love the USA and want to keep the freedoms that were given to me. My instructor then said looks like I have my class leader.

Man the exhaust of those F-4's used to make my face black.Didn't have to be around em much.We got the F-14 Tomcats,and gave the Phantoms to the Gyrene's.A-6's on the Boat were either flyin gas tanks for refueling or A6-E's for anti-sub,and other electronic warfare,had a gold lined windscreen from my recollection,so the pilots wouldn't fry from the waves they generated.
RE: Military background?
