I salute you Joe, and I salute your Dad!

My Dad was an Instructor for B-24's and B-29's. He had a disability that prevented him from being on an Aircrew during WWII, he was too tall (6'3"). They said he would be too cramped in the confined turrets on the planes. The flight Dr's granted him a waiver so that he could teach gunnery and bombing.

Joe, you and I both have Dads to be proud of. And, I am confident that you will surpass the bar your Dad set with his Service back then. You are part of the best equiped, best trained, motavated warriors ever to walk the Earth.

God Bless you, and keep you safe.

Musings from the Mother-Ship:

Anger is a condition in which the tongue works faster than the mind.

A fanatic is one who cannot change his mind and will not change the subject.

A peacock who sits on his tail is just another turkey.

Integrity is like oxygen - the higher you climb, the less there is of it.

Abandon the search for Truth; settle for a good fantasy.

If you're cross-eyed and have dyslexia, can you read all right?

If we are what we eat, then I'm easy, fast and cheap!

Computers can never replace human stupidity.

The decision is maybe and that's final!

The trick to flying is throwing yourself at the floor and missing.

TOMKOW6 calling the mother ship..........do you read?.........I'm waiting!
