4. Imagine what it would be like to fly with Duh-bya on your wing.
Talk about unsafe at any speed.

6. I think Art is accusing *'s "wing men" of covering for him.

The lack of a REAL TANG Wing Man to verify 8's service insinuates that his poppy's "wing men" covered for him back then.

Interesting on many levels.

3. Buchwald shoots ... He scores ... bigtime
good find!

from the article:

At the piano bar, a group was singing, "Over there, over there . . . and we won't come back 'til it's over Over There!"

A man in a flight suit came in. One veteran said, "George, long time no see."

"Do I know you?"

"We haven't met, but I know you from your dental charts."

A vet named Skippy said, "We missed you for a long time."

George replied, "I was flying Stealth bombers over Louisiana."

Big John Henry said, "You were a helluva flier, George. I'll never forget the day you flew over Arizona and pretended the Grand Canyon was the Ho Chi Minh Trail."

George said, "Remember the day I strafed North Dakota pretending it was Cambodia?"

Scooter Flynn said, "You were quite a ladies' man in your day. Every time you completed a mission, you went into Houston and got drunk."

George replied, "Why not? I never knew if I'd be shot down over Minnesota on my next mission."
