My father was also a WWII pilot, flying B-29's. I'm ashamed to say I don't know where he was based at the time. I have his Army Air Corps identification card in it's original case. Inside are two press clippings and letters from chaplains notifying him of the deaths of two of his brothers. One died flying B-29's between Singapore and India and the other during his service in the Navy. I was so lucky to have him near me until he died a few years ago at the age of 83.

Oh, great: AJ is saying that the little king of Jordan is saying that this is NOT a war, but an invastion. They say he said that the Iraqi dead are martyrs.

Great blow to America, so sez MSNBC.
