My other passion - Aviation

Ron, When were you there? Most of the support aircraft we had were prop jobs. I could kiss a few Cobra pilots myself...Ground pounder grunt infantry like me always appreciated a couple of Cobras showing up like the settelers did the Cavalry. Come to think of it the Cobras WERE the 1st Cavalry!
My Father the late Major Morris Burney was in WW2, shot down in Germany, went on to fly many thousands of hours in B47's during the cold war and later showed up in Viet Nam while I was there flying in C130's I grew up on Air Force bases and early on formed a love of aircraft. Jerry Burney
