Herky Birds over Baghdad - ping.
LOL !! Any article that starts off .....There I was at six thousand feet over central Iraq, two hundred eighty knots and we're dropping faster than Paris Hilton's panties .....
.... has to be considered a MUST READ !! LOL!
Hilarious ! Thanks.When we were stationed in The Azores, Portugal, my Dad worked with a Sergeant Wills in "Crash Control" on the flight line. (Air Force). The Fire Department that was responsible for being ready for any planes that may be coming in with trouble.
Anyway, Sergeant Wills had two sons. One was a Sophomore the year I was a Senior and the other was in the 6th or 7th grade. The sons ended up as Officers in the Air Force as well. One flies C-130's and the other flies a fighter plane, F-16's I think. One is a base commander here in the States now, too.
