One of the best, he made the Wilbury's.

Back in the early 60's, at Ft. Riley, Kansas. I would chase them with my helicopter til they got pooped and laid down. I'd squash them with my skid, hop out and cut off the ears and take them to the county clerk for my money. Made a lot of beer money doing that and the local farmers loved me...

I commanded the Army CH-54 (flying crane) company at Ft. Benning in the mid-70's. We picked up the C-47 from Lawson AAF to the airborne field where the 250 foot jump towers are and the aircraft still sits there.

I've owned three Porsches, a 1963SC, 1966 911T (had it re-built at the Porsche factory in 1973) and a 1999 Carerra. The best one was the 1963 that I wish I still had to drive. It was the most fun to drive around a corner real fast and see the back end swing around and the car would almost be...

The information shown extraordinary and will take you days to go through. I found myself in some of the pictures of helicopter units that I'd never seen before. The pictures by Horst Faas are world class. He flew with me many, many times in 1965-66 and was a great person to be with. Sorry he...

Mine in Georgia is plastic like the drivers license and is good for five years, issued by the county probate judge.

Great pictures and thanks for sharing. I saw a lot of that country in the two tours there, but have no desire to go back.

Tradewinds36, go to the VA and request a hearing exam from an audiologist. I didn't retire but got RIF'ed as an O4 and have full VA coverage because of a Purple Heart.

Flying helicopters for a career ruined my hearing. Got hearing aids through the VA, thank goodness, but they aren't worth a **** in a crowded room. They are great for one on one conversations.

I purchased an MP9 three weeks ago and it had the casing in a envelope with a man's name on it. I assumed he had fired the weapon.

For a new shooter these posts have been very helpful I have an order from Freedom Munitions being delivered Tuesday.

My 9mm Browning that carried me through two tours in Nam.

Decided to buy 9mm M&P and love it. Haven't fired much since I used a 9mm Browning in Vietnam in 1965/66. Figured I needed something for home protection and target shooting. Looking forward to enjoying this site.
