There is never the wrong person to see this. Thinking of Christmas, Jesus was a local man, no national reach, but ultimately has touched millions of lives. Just keep the message alive and who knows who will be touched.

Wow, I remember watching Phantoms flying overhead. I still think they are one of the neater looking aircraft. Having no experience with one have no clue what the pilots thought of them.

I want to thank all you veterans for the freedom we enjoy to argue Canon/Nikon/Sony. Were it not for you we would likely not have the choices we currently have though most are Japanese products I doubt we would enjoy them the way we do. watch this video.

Great video, the younger generations should have to watch videos like this so they can understand the sacrifices made to give them the freedoms that they enjoy now. Excellent video, thank you for sharing.

Amen Brother.

I've been successfully repressing nightmares for the last 46 years with the exception of a 3 month span a few years ago when my wife talked me into seeing a Psychologist supposedly adept at dealing with depression.
Well, after 3 sessions, the dumb SOB told me what was wrong. It seems as though I've been suffering from PTSD for over 40 years!!

Well No Screaming Eagle S**T sweetheart. Show me any Vet who's been in a combat zone or "flew the friendly skies" over North Vietnam and I'll show you someone with PTSD. Hell, I just thought I was F**KED-UP. Well, all of those recurrent nightmares that I had successfully suppressed over the years came flooding back worse than ever. I thought about joining the Postal Workers Union so I could legally Shoot the dumb SOB and get away with it.

When I was an instructor in the Navy/Marine Corps ATC school at NATTC Glynco, GA (Now known as the Federal Law Enforcement training Center, FLETC). I always told my students, "There are no dumb questions, only unanswered ones". That's the same thing I also told my FAA Academy students when I taught there in 1971.
