I was a guest at NSA in Fort Meade a few years ago when Clinton authorized the military to acknowledge what one such crew had done.

For 40 years the families of those men knew nothing about their loved ones deaths. The pilot of the P3 dishonored the men before him that did what had to be done.

One final note, you notice he decided not to make the Navy a career??? I suspect he was helped in making that decision.

Good point.

I remember when Clinton did that. Its one of the few things he did right.

If the truth be known, we've lost quite a few crews to lightning, bad weather, mechanical failures, etc. etc.

Funny how only pri 1 squadrons run into those problems.
