“Keep ‘em flyin’!” Today is the U.S. Air force Anniversary. Created 18 September 1947. Best part for me was serving in PACAF and SAC!
Remembering 9/11 20 years later. The towers, those lost in NY, The Pentagon and Shanksville, Pa. The military , the first responders, and the many civilians who responded and sacrificed will never be forgotten.
Is this possible?A spokesman for the administration said in the last 24 hours, 15,000 people were evacuated from Afghanistan. Is that even possible?
He will speak ... This afternoon Eastern time Biden will explain, “ Here’s the deal, man!” On Afghanistan. Then he’ll explain it to the World. He’s not currently in the good graces with many World leaders of this Afghanistan situation. But, we’ll see..,
Any military Taiwan vets here? I know a number of US vets are on here and I am curious to know if anyone served in Taiwan, especially the 6214th CSG?
Leap frog?? Found these two outside my kitchen. When you look at them from an angle it’s one thing, but looking at them straight on...they actually look mean!
A hint of what’s coming. “Ominous” clouds late in the afternoon followed by gusting winds and a pretty decent downpour. But the clouds do deserve our attention when they’re like this. Could be more than wind and rain.

How will you do it as the days shorten? We’re a mere few days from August when if you watch, you notice how quickly evening comes, and the time left to cook outdoors. When daylight and temperatures change, will you be stalwart and be outside or be an oven user?

My friend from Canada, experiencing a hot dog for the first time from a street kiosk in NUC asked me if it was as legend had it, “ a dirty water hot dog?” “Indeed!” I said.

Will this history remain? [I Photography] Hoboken New Jersey right outside NJTs rail terminal. Track embedded in cobblestone from an era long gone, when trolleys ran over the now abruptly ended rails. How many millions of tires have run over them and the cobblestones?
