... US Air Force, as their anthem goes.
The US Air Force turns 60 today. It was officially made a separate arm of the US Government via the National Security Act of 1947; our very own Cold War baby. Prior, it was part of the Department of the Army.
Happy anniversary to all of you who proudly wear the Blue. I know we grunts are always complaining about the life you lead, but when you pull our chestnuts out of the fire, it sure is good to have you around.
Again .... Happy Anniversary.
I'd also like to express my personal congrats to my cousin's son, Capt. Joe "Five-O" Scholtz, a Warthog pilot who has done tours in both theaters. He's an Air Force Academy grad, so he may be more than a captain by now, but my prayers go with him no matter what he is or where he may be .... You know grunts love Warthog pilots!
Stay safe Capt. Joe.
