To operate B25’s off a flight deck is a breathtaking act of courage in itself, but that whole mission highlights the best traditions of our military, and should serve as an inspiration to us all. We could sure use a few guys like that these days.
Judging by recent events, and the Iraq War and Afghanistan, we have lots of guys with smarts, skill and guts. What we lack is the public support and political leadership, as a result of the corruption of the American media and the academy of the past five decades.
“We could sure use a few guys like that these days.”
We have tons of folks like that serving today in Iraq, Afghanistan, and recently, off the coast of Somalia.
I hope that we can survive long enough for them to move in to leadership positions, like young Duncan Hunter has.
The U.S.Army does some pretty impressive stuff, from the biggest beach landings to the most famous carrier work.
