something is not right with that bulldozer. Oh, I know! . It's a shame that other people cannot find someone innocent until convicted in a court of law.

Was this law put in place after WWII?

Those are all enlisted airmen. Well, not the pilots.(the Captain in the front, plus the other.)

I suspect it's a jet that requires lotsa enlisted personnel to operate it. Perhaps a KC-135 or an E-3....

It's well known that the air force has hotter chicks than the navy.

The ships I were on weren't outfitted for many navy women. But those that were on my ships were uuuuuuggglllleee. It's times like those you wish they did serve beer aboard U.S. navy ships like they do on British ships.

That, or more likely during the war. We sold plenty of iron ore to Germany but I don't think we sold any more Bofors 88 mm AA guns after the war started.
