(Vanity) Hey, Air Force types! Harold Brown listed as an important person?
U.S. Air Force, AF Link ^

I know that Mr. Harold Brown was a SecAF for Johnson. Tell me why one of "McNamarra's "Whiz Kids" deserves a place of honor on the Air Force web site. His ugly mug is right up there with TRUE greats like Chuck Yeager, General Spaatz, Jackie Cochran, Gabby Gabreski? These others are heros, Brown was an intellectual idtiot! He helped McNamarra plant almost as many good soldiers and airmen as the communists!!!

BTW, found his face there when I was looking info up on BG Robin Olds, another TRUE American hero.

Input please, and keep it clean.

Why? I can't explain it anyway else. Also, don't ask about McPeak. A lot of us AF retired guys would get banned.

Big whoop.

For that he deserves to be with Gus Grissom?

General Chuck Horner?

BG Billy Mitchell?

Are all the other SecAF listed there on the page? If they are, they need a seperate page to keep the "poloticians" seperate from the "heros".

And a lot of us who are still in and survived the McPeak years would not only get banned, but probably reprimanded...
