I'm glad you didn't. We'd miss you here. Well, I guess we'd never have known you. 
Jerry could weigh in on this but he's probably writing some innocent citizen a ticket about now.... |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: I remember being offered the chance to switch from the USAF to the Army to become a warrant officer helicopter pilot. My recollection at the time was that we'd go straight into rotary wing flight school. I think it was while I was still in tech school in '64. Current scuttlebutt said helicopter pilots in Vietnam had an average life expectancy of about 3 days and nobody in my flight elected to transfer. I've sometimes wished that I had given it a bit more serious thought. |
