My daughter is in the Navy. In fact she was with the VS-41 squadron when President Reagan made his trip to the USS Lincoln. She went to work that morning and there was AF One parked next to their hangar. A sister squadron flew the President to the Lincoln.

Blue Angels are coming to OKC shortly to perform. Last time I saw The Thunderbirds they landed and pulled up to the Tarmac to the song by Lee Greenwood of Proud to be an American -- that brings tears to my eyes everytime.

Love aircraft -- been around it most of my adult life -- special breed of folks fly fighter jets -- also some of my favorite people.
