[QUOTE="DrWing, post: 1232299, member: 29380"] Food for thought indeed. Spent a couple of hours talking to a 91 year old former Army Air Corp B-17 pilot who spent many hours flying missions over Germany during WWII. Amazing. He spoke of how scared they were and how crazy they were off duty. Seeing the faces of enemy fighters as the flew by and how often they had to clean the stuff out of their flight suits after missions. I think of how I was at 21, man these guys were made from very tough stock. I asked him what was the best thing after the war ended besides people not dying anymore. He had an answer that blew me away. He said" We got to go back to living again". How cool is that! Thanks for your service all, DrWing [/QUOTE]
