Good evening, LFR.....great post. Thank you for sharing the “throw a nickel on the grass” background.

Thanks, too, for the ending of the “Tribute to the Fighter Pilot”.

Rest in Peace, Col Day!

I was just thinking what a disappointment it must have been for him to make it out of North Vietnam while badly injured then almost make it to the American base then lose it all at the last minute, be even worse injured, and be tortured for nearly six years.

He must have had an indomitable spirit.
