Thanks for sharing the pictures, Steve - great shots and those of us afflicted by nostalgia really enjoy thinking back to times when we were young. Watched American Graffiti last night with Joanie and my sister-in-law - talk about young! Harrison Ford and Ron Howard were kids - but weren't we all 40 years ago.

As to the Chinooks - years after spending a bit of time with them, I'd hear one in the distance and tell my kids, "that's a Chinook - the helicopter with two rotors." They'd ask, "how do you know, dad?" I'd smile and say, "trust me here - there's somethings you never forget."

My thanks and sincerest regards to all my fellow soldiers - live well and never forget. It's okay if you still get a lump in your throat when you hear the Star Spangled Banner - I know I do!

Blessings All,
Glenn
