I hope I’m not out of order here, but I thought forum members would be interested in the background of a new member, someone I urged to join. He’s of interest because he embodies something that our Leftist intelligentsia has been in the process of destroying among the upcoming generations of Americans.
His name is Jbob. He served in Vietnam, in a very dangerous role: he was the pilot of an observation plane – there were no drones in those days – … the kind that flew low and slow over enemy positions – one in six of them crashed, either from enemy fire or through other mishaps. . [ OV-1 Mohawk Observation Aircraft | Military Machine ]He was lucky, although he did have some close calls. And we are lucky to have him here.
But … I wonder if our young snowflakes, who need to be protected from words they don’t like to hear, would be up to the sort of challenge that Jbob and his friends faced? Actually, I don’t wonder.
