HUH? WHAT DID YOU SAY?

The Forward Transmission in the Chinook combined with poor hearing protection in the Army Issue Helmet of the Day removed my HF Hearing and gave me a Ringing in my Ears that takes about full Volume on the stereo to overcome.

Children and Women with high pitched voices.....are unintelligible and only get Head Nods in response to anything they say.

The advantage is I have a built in excuse for not listening to a nattering Woman now.
