Yep. To mourn their passing, I'm sitting on my flak jacket all day today at
work...

There are some old Bell UH 1 Helicopters on permanent display here in
Mississippi, at least two that I know of.One of them is at a Mississippi
Army National Guard place, about two miles South of doggy's couch.(South
is always Best) Another one is at the Mississippi Vietnam Veterans
Memorial Museum on the Mississippi Gulf Coast.

My eight years older brother was a Helicopter Mechanic at Vung
Tau,Vietnam, 1964, his second Tour of Duty in Vietnam following a year
in Germany.One Sunday I caught the Chaplin Run to go visit him.

I am a Ground Pounder, I don't like to fly.I likes to keep my feetises
planted on solid ground.If God had meant for me to fly, he would have
given me wangs.I am fixin to get back on the ground now, jacking up and
blocking up and leveling up my old red neck trailer.

Gee, I don't have a flack jacket.
