Happy Birthday, United States Air Force
The United States Air Force was established September 18, 1947.

It’s also Ben Carson’s birthday :)
“Up in the air Junior Birdman,
Up in the air upside down,
Up in the air Junior Birdman,
Keep your noses off the ground.”
“When you hear the grand announcement,
That your wings are made of tin,
Then you know that Junior Birdman,
Has turned his box tops in.”
Just kidding. Blue Suiter F-100s bailed my butt out of deep kim chee on more than one occasion in RVN.
Love ‘em
The third great event that year was..........?
It’s time to merge it back into the Army, or let the Army operate A-10 and other fixed wing ground attack aircraft
