Im new (today!) to this forum. This thread got to me more than any I have read over the 2 years that I have lurked here. I am former USAF and Army (Cold War Era) My son is a Crew Chief stationed at Deyss AFB in Texas, servicing the C-130's that are bringing the beans and bullets to the ground troops.I am unspeakably proud of his service to our Nation and will defend the honor of the USAF with my last breath.
