Best thing I ever saw was dropping Spec Ops off in Northern Iraq during Desert Storm. Loaded up with ATV's, Dune Buggies, etc......landed at a "strip" in "somewhere" , dropped the ramp while still rolling down the runway, Spec Ops rolls out the back and into the night, we raise the ramp and take back off. Less than 2 minutes. Unreal. |

Spent a week flying back and forth from KFMH to KPSM was a great week supporting local National Guard in our area on their ORI and our local ALCE back in 2015. Fall nights in Portsmouth bars are great.

I grew up just a mile or three off the end of one of the runways at KNZW. I'm old enough to remember the blimps lumbering by. I actually got to hitch a ride on one of the Navy choppers for a flight up through the White Mountains and into ME and back. That former NAS is now mostly converted to high end condo complexes.

This was crazy. A common merganser popped out of the water with an eel in her mouth, and another lady duck decided she would rather go for the steel versus getting her own eel. A 30 second chase ensued all over the duck pond. Very dramatic!
