Hi Tom,

Boy it must suck big time to have to live so close to an active
airfield, and to have to put up with them darn jets flying so close over
head. And the sun shining on you so consistantly there in Pensacola,
that must be real tough too. Hope you can bear up under the burden vbg.

My wifes uncle, a Marine aviator now deceased, guided us through the
Naval Aviation Museum there at Sherman Field last time we were down
there, he pointed out "his" airplane hanging in the museum, not his type
but the exact plane that he flew in Korea (I believe it was a F6F
Panther?) and told me exactly where each bullet hole had been repaired.
He started as an enlisted man, he rose through the ranks and became an
officer later, his experience went back to props, fabric, and flying
wires. A real treat.

Don't let the rough life get to you.

George
