By using the "off topic" you gave us all the chance to pass due to lack of
roadster content.....
I was privilaged to witness a very special scene yesterday....My son who is
in the 82nd Airborne, stationed in North Carolina did not know if he would
be home for Christmas. We had not heard from him for a week and given the
current situation, didn't even know if he was still in the country. After
our Christmas program Sabbath morning, my wife and I got home in the
afternoon and laid down on the bed for a short rest. As we dosed we heard
someone's loud voice say "Look outside!!" and at that moment PFC Matthew
Stoll came through the bedroom door!!!! What I saw was a worried Mom jump
and throw her arms around her soldier son she longed to see at the Christmas
season. As dad got his chance to talk I learned that when Matt returns he
goes on 2 hour alert and will be ready to go anywhere in 2 hrs....When he
returns to base will we ever see him again? I wish I had full assurance of
that. And if not I know that there are some on this list who will weep
with us because this list is more than technical info....
I too am disgusted that our flag is not in the displays!!!!
I don't like war but I dislike "PC" even less...
Roadster content- Took the tarp off and let the sun air out the hibernating
beast....
