Jim,
And good day to you, sir!
Those were indeed interesting times! I was an aide to the USCOB, don't remember which outfit I was technically assigned to. I would have to go dig out my orders to look and see.

Just heard a C-130 from my ANG unit fly over. They have a bird up for a Veterans Day parade. I was getting my hunting gear assembled. It made my day even better.

The kids in our local grammar school are having an honor luncheon today for all veterans who want to come. If you walk out of there with a dry eye, you have no feeling. God bless the future of our country.
