Salute!

Sure glad to see all the views here from many that have not spent a day or two at USAFA during basic cadet training or a month later, or two years later. Such enlightened views, and from how may Cranwell grads? Hmmm...

Let's face it, the colonies have done their own thing since 1776. I do not like several things I see there at USAFA, as a grad and career officer. But USAF has always been the premier politically correct service, for good or for ill.

I have flown with and had instructors from RAF, and all top notch. Then worked with many of them during my career along with other NATO flying folks. So let the pols be pols, and they come and go. Every generation of two we get a Churchhill or Reagan or Thatcher. Thank God.
