    Had my gastric ulcer in '83 but thanks for the advice. I did "pop off" on the "wimpy.." issue and should have held my tongue/fingers. And, by the way, the USAF consistently meets its recruiting quotas and has folks standing in line. The video - the USAF Academy does not always make what I consider appropriate choices. I am 67 years of age, served 25 years in the USAF, first 14 as enlisted, last eleven commissioned. Just did my job but always proud - and maybe a little too defensive - of my branch of service.

    67 also and served two enlistments. We wouldn't often win any awards for spit and polish, but the guys I served with in SEA busted their butts to keep the Thuds in the air and on target. If only McNamara had been strapped to one of those Mark 82's.
