C-130 Gunships visit. The AC-130A Spectre “Ghost Rider” is also known as “Hell in the Sky.


Correction: the AC-130 Spectre has been retired for decades.

The current version is AC-130J Ghostrider

Niven’s laws:
Do not throw 💩 at an armed man.

Do not want to be on the receiving end of that for sure !!!

I Love being an American Born Citizen. I sometimes wonder what it would be like to have been born in a 3rd World Country and I don’t like it...

Thank You, God for letting Me be an American.🙏🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
