Does Idaho not need defending? In time of conflict they might think otherwise.

My father used to tell the tale of how he, in WW2, (he was then a young boy) and an old lady, passed in the street in UK. Both looked up at a noisy, low flying twin engined aircraft that shot past not far above them. She said;: “Thank goodness it’s one of ours...”

My father, noting the big black crosses painted on it, ran off, shouting “It’s NOT, missus!”
