They did it right, the first time, unlike us who couldn’t launch a lousy jet from across the river (Andrews AF Base or Bolling AF Base) to protect the Pentagon. None on duty or armed. Had to call in jets from Langley - too far away to be useful. 160+ dead at the Pentagon, just down the street from me. I felt the explosion’s concussion and saw the smoke.

No shoulder-fired missiles on the Pentagon’s roof like there were supposed to be. Clinton defanged our air defenses in 1994-95. Got it from one of the operations officers who was there.

Aren’t there supposed to be MANPADS on the White House roof?

Lots of us never forget that. A guy I served with in NM was on the plane that hit the Pentagon. Is why I re-enlisted after an 18 year gap in service.

Yep. The Israelis did it right. We didn't.

Still makes me so mad I want to cry and kill something.

Thank you.

I didn’t know that.
