    Thank-you for your generosity. My wife also served (21 years), as did both of my sisters and their husbands, my father (WWII, 21 combat missions in a B-17, European Theater), and both grandfathers.

    Cool

    Martin,

    Thank you for your service to our country. I was in VS-27 right out of Pensacola (Class 38-67) and later flew in VS-72 out of NAS Norfolk/Chambers Field in the reserves. I was on the last cruise of the Yorktown and had the pleasure of walking her flight two years ago where she is tied up in Charleston harbor. They disesablished VS-72 and I transitioned to Hugheys as a new member of HAL-4. Now going back to flight school in August to transition to H-1's with zero rotor head time equated to a lot of sweat. I ate up a new helmit liner in four weeks because it was so hot. We had Marine 1st LTs as instructors and we were senior to them. They kept yelling "Sir, don't do that sir!" and "Sir, God damn it. Do not, repeat do not hit the stinger, Sir". Lots of fun. I was in HAL-4 as a plank owner until 1988 and loved the folks down there. It was really a pleasure to have an airframe that allowed you to shoot back!

    Very generous Waymon. If Canadians count. Canadian Armed Forces (Air Force) 1965 - 1975. Having recently got a lathe I have got involved in our pens for Canadian peacekeepers project. We don't have the infrastructure providing blanks and kits to the turners but we do our best and support our troops. I think they appreciate the letter that goes with each pen as much or more than the pen.
