Allright, somebody’s got to get this one going so I will. Kind of sad when a thread about some WWII heroes, who had an incredibly dangerous but unheralded job get an article about them and no one discusses it. As with all Veterans, especially combat veterans, I salute them for their service.
I had the honor tonight, along with about 20 Boy Scouts to meet and hear some exploits of a B-25 bomber pilot. What incredible bravery.

We just had our District Spring Camporee on Fort Huachuca last weekend.

It's not that folks aren't interested. It's the format here at FR. Anything posted in VetsCor doesn't get posted in the "Activity" tab, never has. It's kind of like a back room unfortunately, unlike say the Canteen or any other "News" forum.
For your reading pleasure I offer this old "Foxhole" covered via VetsCoR 5 years ago. Boy how time flies.
