Thank you Sam for this.

I pledge allegiance to the Flag
of the United States of America,
and to the Republic, for which it stands;
one nation UNDER GOD,
indivisible,
with liberty and justice for all.

Good morning, everyone!! Snow Bunny, how are you Diva??

AntiJen, you have simply outdone yourself. Although I'm a Navy wife, I grew up closer to Wright Patterson Air Force base. The air shows and the museum is second to none. God Bless the Air Force!!!God Bless all of our Troops! God Bless Israel, Canada, NZ, Australia, and the rest of our Allies!!

Hi Snow Bunny. I was USAF from Dec 12, 1967 to Dec 31, 1987. Happy birthday USAF.

My last duty station.

Hmmm... I guess I'll have to join this thread with a snappy salute to Col. "Paw" Bustard, USAF (Ret.) [A. Bustard's dad], and a reminder that the USAF isn't all fancy planes. Some of 'em like to play with rockets...

The planes in flight fit this poem I just finished yesterday, so, it's a little rough around the edges:

Saddam, Saddam

You better prepare for an attack,
you can’t take it back,
you had your chance,
maintain you normal stance,
raise your hands,
your girly-boys will soil their pants
again, they will drop their guns
you’ve had your day in the sun

Saddam, Saddam, see what you’ve done
put yourself on the run
see what happens when you invade my nest
do you regret your foolish quest?

There is one guy you tried to push
I speak, of course, of G.W. Bush
you discovered he is not weak
in fact, you helped him reach his peak

Did you believe we’re all like Daschile,
Clinton, Terry M. , Al Gore?
they are not bashful,
each a political whore

There are others leftists you see
do you remember Mrs. C?
oh, all right, I mean Hillary
she would have set you free

Saddam, Saddam, you foolish man,
we are one in this blessed land
we were split down the middle
with inspections you had to fiddle
now, you brought about a consensus,
time to prepare for our presence

Oh, let’s not forget the United Nations
one of the leftist’s creations
Kofi tried to get you off the hook
now they’re taking a second look

I, for one, know you’re not alone
I don’t believe you’re “the man”,
someone else is on the throne,
you are just one of the band
whomever, I suggest you leave us alone

Once you’ve been dispatched
there’ll be another itch to scratch
only the future will tell,
who is next to be sent to Hell

Saddam, Saddam, you’re such a jerk
your recent ploy will not work
my words to you are at an end,
there are now bombs to send
oh yes, we’ll also send real men
we’ll buckle, but we will not bend
decent people do not kill their own
reap the whirlwind you have sown
