the Big Red One, commanded by Major General John H. Hay, Jr., employed two of its three organic brigades

So, the rest of the brigades were Genetically Modified?

the jumpmaster's voice rose above the roar of the C-130: "Stand in the Door."

Back in the Be All You Can Be days, there was a TV commercial frequently played. I could've sworn the jumpmaster was saying, "man in the door". Durn T-37 engines have done a number on my ears.

Any Flag-O-Gram with Bitty-Girl in it has to just make your day. :-)

You can imagine how lucky I feel to be able to hold her every day when I get home.

Actually, they had artificial preservatives - mass quantities of medicinal alcohol.
