Juvenile logic.


As stated previously, Art is in his second childhood.


I think you're right.

I don't think he's ever heard of IQT (Initial Qualification Training) or
MQT (Mission Qualification Training), where you actually become a
navigator or operational pilot, after being evaluated as to what they do.

I know there must be thousands of "fighter" pilots who never saw combat their
whole career. I'm glad the nuclear alert bomber crews never flew a combat
mission, and I wouldn't call them worthless in capital letters.

I think this Kramer guy must be his son or grandson. I think the real Kramer
is dead, or in an old folks home.
