Thank you for doing such a fabulous job on this thread. Also, thank you to the other Canteeners that pitched in with their efforts.

This thread is important for many reasons.
If our guys and gals like looking at beautiful people to help pass the time, then so be it. It isn't for me, you, or anyone else to judge.

The intentions for posting some of the regular pictures on the thread have been for the Troops. Some folks may disagree and that's fine, but I think overall they've missed the point.

That's why I think it's wonderful this thread has highlighted the beauty and inspiration of the Nose Cone Art!!
