Feel free to post or link any pictures here. Since the bombing began today, I already feel much warmer and fuzzier just thinking of those 2,000 lb bombs exploding in Afghanistan.
At sea with USS Philippine Sea, Oct. 7, 2001 A Tomahawk cruise missile launches from USS Philippine Sea (CG 58) for a strike against al Qaeda terrorist training camps and Taliban military installations in Afghanistan on Oct. 7, 2001. The carefully-targeted actions are designed to disrupt the use of Afghanistan as a base for terrorist operations and to attack the military capability of the Taliban regime. USS Philippine Sea (CG 58) is part of Operation Enduring Freedom. U.S. Navy photo by Master Chief Photographer's Mate Terry Cosgrove. [011007-N-1523C-001] Oct. 7, 2001
*BOOM* *BOOM*
Climbing high into the sun;
*BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM**KA-BOOM*
Here they come zooming to meet our thunder, At'em boys, giv'er the gun!
*BOOM* *BOOM**KA-BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM*
Down we dive spouting our flames from under, Off with one hell-uv-a roar!
*BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM*
We live in fame or go down in flame, Nothing'll stop the US Air Force!
*BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM**KA-BOOM*
(In part, from the US Air Force Anthem.)
This anthem, along with accompanying sound effects (large amounts of air deployed ordance exploding on target) always wafts through my mind when viewing these threads....

Got two 20 year old son's in the military and although I want them to stay safe, I am very very proud of them and there is no better cause right now for us to unite behind and they both agree.
