Oh, I’ll have some pics from today – I did actually leave the apartment and get on the bike But I wanted to get caught up a bit How about we start off the [...]  Seems the A-10 has been having an IMPACT in Libya. This is my favorite Air Force Airplane. Big Assed Gatling Gun, the GAU-8 Avenger Cannon! Kills……everything…..dead! So wander over to Buck’s Place and have a read! You will enjoy it! http://exileinportales.blogspot.com/2011/03/be-afraid.html And a link to the Wikipedia article on this outstanding example of aerospace engineering!

It now takes a [...] A couple of postcards from the era when I went to Boot Camp at RTC, San Diego. These were the barracks for the first four weeks of training. After the 2-4 day, we moved to the mainside. Providing we passed all the stuff. I lived in the closest one on the first deck. For real. [...] Major Dick Winters has passed at the age of 92. God Speed Major. Many of us only learned of you from Stephen Ambrose and a mini series. But the interviews were amazing. http://thisainthell.us/blog/?p=21783&cpage=1#comment-245502 The link is to the post at This Ain’t Hell. While flame throwers don’t have any pesky federal regulations and are relatively inexpensive, I surely wouldn’t mind receiving an F-22 Raptor or F-117 Nighthawk this Christmas Oh sure, you could get me an SU-27 Flanker, F-5 Tiger, or a T-38 Talon and I’d be seriously thrilled There’s something the Raptor and Nighthawk have [...] |
