Sort of Like Last Night

Orlando Fl at the Red River Valley Fighter Pilot's Association reunion. Last night in the hospitality suite was a bit like this:



A couple of minutes ago I met a guy who looked like he was seventeen years old. He's got two years operational in the F-15 and is now in the F-22 Raptor squadron cranking up at Holloman AFB in New Mexico. I don't know whether to envy him (I do!) or hate him. He looks like someone who would pick up your daughter for the prom, or deliver a Domino's pizza. Damn, but it's hell to get old!
