Morning CT.

Read a few books on the WWII LRDG and SAS. There's a good movie about the Aussies in Vietnam called "The Odd Angry Shot" that I liked.

Morning Iris7.

IMHO, between these men and the Phoenix Project, we had a pretty good chance of being effective against the VC. Too bad "the good guys" aren't "allowed" to fight that way.

Morning E.G.C.

Raining this morning. Snippy and I have a presentation to do at a college in a nearby town this morning. Helping get the word out that we're open for business. ;-)

Prayer is a conversation with God, not a formula.

I always felt that way but the Nuns insisted on the "formula" :-(

1969 Australian aircraft carrier "Melbourne" slices US destroyer "Frank E Evans" in half, killing 74. (South Vietnam)

Frank E. Evans's stern section tied up alongside USS Everett F. Larson (DD-830), after she was cut in two in a collision with the Australian aircraft carrier Melbourne.

SH-3 helicopters from USS Kearsarge (CVS-33) join search and rescue operations over the stern section of USS Frank E. Evans, as USS Everett F. Larson (DD-830) stands ready to offer assistance (at right). A Royal Australian Navy frigate is also present.

Frank E. Evans was cut in two in a collision with the Australian aircraft carrier Melbourne during Southeast Asian Treaty Organization exercises in the South China Sea.

Good morning, folks.

We're watching for storms today. it's only a 20% chance but they could be severe if they develop so we're watching for them.

Fascinating Iris. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge of Mad Mike (and the links).

The false accusations against him nearly took their toll but he overcame them thankfully. What a shame about that mess but what an interesting life it seems he led. We'll have to get his books.
