You also forgot to mention that every hatch on the cupola was cabable of smashing fingers, arms, elbows and toes. You forgot to mention that the inside of that moving mass of steel had angles, corners, pipes, and knobs that banged, bonked, busted, bruised and broke fingers, foreheads, knees, elbows, shoulders and backs. I would remind you that it did not come in a size 36" extra-long. It was small, dark, sweaty, dank and dangerous. But Brother was it awesome in it's firepower, shock, and speed. HooAhhh.<BR/>I also recall that we were there to as an alternative to slogging in the mud and blood with the unprotected 11 Bravo Grunts.<BR/>So when we went to flight school to learn to soar with the eagles, was that another upgrade? I know that the front seat of a Cobra does not come in a 36 extralong either, and danged if there aren't just as many corners, bends, and unmovables as well as movable parts that bang, break, bruise and befuddle the body. Maybe I'm just a clutz, but again AWESOME. Thanks for the reminder Greybeard. I may have nightmares tonight.OlePrairiedoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02124426131774272180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12452759.post-1158524976063811722006-09-17T13:29:00.000-07:002006-09-17T13:29:00.000-07:00I guess I should slow down a bit when typing...she...I guess I should slow down a bit when typing...sheesh!THIRDWAVEDAVEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09523845768983338199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12452759.post-1158483200140185492006-09-17T01:53:00.000-07:002006-09-17T01:53:00.000-07:00That is one hell of a story.
