PAUL !!!!!! SHUT UP!!! You were a KC-10 guy? I was a KC-135R Crew Chief. LOL. I miss that old jet. Took me all over the world more than once. I'll post a pic when I get home from work.

Thanks from one Vet to the rest. I am proud I did my part, and can only wish that people truly understood what it means to be an American, and what it costs to have the rights we have. Freedom is NOT free.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

No airplane tech, just a grunt from HHC 1/123.  Ended up as a cook before I got out.

A big departure from where I am now. Selling software for a German firm

Thanks to all for their service!
