I was in the Army, stationed in Germany at the time. Of course, we didn’t get news of this until a few days AFTER the fact.

It was like a gut-punch. Still is. Not sure I’d pay money to see the re-enactment of an awful tragedy - especially if Leftist, America-Hating Hollywood is involved in re-writing History. :(

That is going to be one depressing movie. It will get you to love the main character, and then . . . boom.

These things always go straight to video. No matter how well done, everyone knows the ending.

Was in a test building in New Orleans where we proof tested the hydrogen tanks. I was the test conductor and we thought initially the LH2 tank had failed. Talk about soiling your britches. Bad day for sure.

I read the VERY interesting story about the soccer ball that he took up with him which survived the explosion. RIP to them all.

Bet they’ll lose those American flag patches for the movie.

I am offended by this. I am protesting.

Michelle Obama should be given the role.
