Good Morning, EVERYBODY!
Great thread, Ms. Lauren!
My nephew is an F-16 crew chief...that photo in the center reminds me of him; a lot.
I just found out he was nearly run over by one of his birds last weekend - one of these days, when it’s not so late, I’ll tell the story.
Good Morning, EVERYBODY!

Umph…ouch…cleaned up some leaves and dead plants near the front steps yesterday and certain muscles are screaming this morning.
Well, the nice walk I had yesterday might have added to it.
Argggggggggg! There are gremlins in my computer or ISP or WWW.
I'm going to have to post and make my rounds quickly.
A slow computer is going to put me in a foul mood.
Off to make my rounds.
But, you stay right where you are. Don't touch that dial.
And, remember – I’ll be watching!

So, come on in and sit for a while.
There's always plenty of coffee, pancakes, conversation, silliness,

My early years in the AF was as a Weapons Controller or Ground Control Intercept Operator. Tyndall was my first assignment (temporary duty) for school. We were all 2/Lt and were taught how use a plastic protractor and grease pencil to intercept unknown or enemy aircraft. The R/T calls were very exact and you had to learn every word, when to make the call and what was expected from the pilot. I was there in the Winter and Panama City was very dreary. The paper mill added an element as well. I lived on post and after a few weeks was asking myself what I had gotten into. After school moved to Eglin a short distance down the road at Fort Walton Beach. Got there in Summer and things became much better.
