Don't try to patent that! It's been done before!  y1

Where were you in the "The 8th Air Force"?  I spent almost 4 years there. B-47s at Hunter AFB, Savannah, GA. '58-'62.

One funny was when my son, a C-130 driver called me one night. "Where are you" I asked. He said "I can't tell you where, but I am sleeping in a building where you slept many nights on Alert!" They were standing-by in case a certain conflict possibility came to fruition. I knew he was not in Spain or Morroco so I figured it out!  :##

  I spent 4 years in Amarillo at the S A C base, we had B-52's in the "D" designation, 4128 heavy bomb wing, the years were 1960- '64, and yes the 8th Air Force is still in business, my nephew by marriage served at Barksdale AFB.
  Thanks to ALL VETERANS... H^^ H^^ H^^
