Moody AFB would be the logical place since they already have an air park with a memorial to Maj. McIntosh.

Happy Veteran's Day to all. Just started a Wall Of honor at the Middle School where I teach. Very intersting pictures. I will post a picture after it is completed. Already have one that I knew. Lyn McIntosh. His son is a teacher here.

He flew out of Afghanstain to Germany on (guess) a "C-130".

My son who is a combat medic in the Air Force just left Afghanistan headed home, but my other son who is in the 160th SOAR is going there in January.

Just called Pass & ID at Moody, they are not using DBIDS.

At Clark we did FCF's during daylight hours. Sure would not want to fly into Crow Valley at night with a system flying you a couple hundred feet low.

Military leadership usually follows the beliefs of the commander in chief, just look at Johnson, Carter, Clinton enough said.
