True poverty

Next time you are feeling down about life, remember those who truly have a hard life.

A busy birthday.

I started off my birthday with going to family day at McEntire SCARNG base with a friend who is stationed there. Sitting in the seat of a AH-64A resently returned from Iraq it strck me how there craft are showing thier age, and how flying one is not exactly like riding around in luxury. Take a look at the age of the instruments and the amount of dust still in the craft from flyin in Iraq. It even had a strong locker-room type smell to it, just imagine sitting in one of these in the Iraqi heat for hours on end.
