To All You Good Men, Mort, Humper, DMZ-Lt, and all the others here I failed to mention, I'm pleased to be in your company. I served my time(24 yrs. Navy) and spent 20 months piloting a Navy jet over N. Korea. I think I had it good, at least had a warm meal each day, and a warm bed to lay my head. I had a brother in the 1st Calvery there at the same time I was there(9/51-9/53). I feel for you when you had to spend time in that miserable cold mountain country, and there is not one part of it worth one American serviceman life.
I would like to say, if we went back there today, we could not win. Those N. Korean are better trained and fighter than what was there in the early 50's. But if asked, I would climb back in that cockpit and do the same.. Only this time, I want to pick where I'm to drop the bombs. I hope you understand,, no American should leave a front line in defeat.
