I was at Tailhook, and I came very close to quitting twice. Once because of the lies told by female aviators about their own activities, then again when Congress came down on Bob Stumpf, who was good enough to command the Blue Angels, but not good enough for Politically Correct Congress.

We had a right to be angry about Kara and Carey because the job is dangerous enough without a couple of incompetent Sheilas up there putting scank-stank on your shit. Hell, Kara once forgot to shut down an engine on the flight deck, and almost sucked up a yellow-shirt. I KNOW they would have tossed me over the side for that maneuver, yet she stayed and would have probably gone up the chain has she not pulled her famous rudder-for-lineup move that finally took her life.

Tailhook was what it always was. Aggressive men mixed with alcohol. You know the rest. Anyone unable to hang in that environment, should not have been there. You don't get gold wings for being a pussy. I fear the day that some sensitive woman with penis-envy is all that stands between a Backfire bomber and any place I happen to be. I'm going to shut up now. I already said too much.

You actually sound like the guy I met. This was at Liberty Sport Shop in DeFuniak Springs, Florida.

The owner was a retired Air Force Colonel and had flown just about everything in the inventory, including U2's from 1942 until his retirement.

Of course the two aviators enjoyed talking flying.

Partner you ain't said enough, come to a real EOD party sometime and I will teach you the DOFA (Dance of the Flaming Asshole). Your carrier landings on the beer soaked table are nothing to compare to it.

You said what had to be said. Don't apologyze.
