A little off topic but VIDEO: Chinese patrol aircraft follows Japanese fighters over E. #China sea http://youtu.be/dlsj-yUPqNo Is this some kind of Commie Spring thing?
Now I know why I have been hearing a lot of F-15’s lately. PANG (Portland Air National Guard) is the air defence base for the PNW.
Quite right. But a working knowledge of things military is not evident in the media anymore either. Sensationalism is more important than substance.
Lemay would be fired by obummer within 20 minutes. Lemay was a no nonsense type of guy who spoke his mind with legendary bluntness. I’m pretty sure the one would be cut down to size within those 20 minutes.

No real man could be cut down to Obama's size, but I'm sure Lemay would be fired in well under the time you specified.
It’s just Pooty Poot playing with the Pentagon bean counters. “Every time I send a plane, those idiots whack another 1,000 from the military just to pay for the intercept.”
Sent pink slips to hundreds of Army Majors in Afghanistan,is depleting our nuclear deterrent,shrinking the Air Force and the Navy,what else do you want him to do?
