April 18, 1977

When I glanced at the calendar this morning, it occurred to me that on this date - 40 years ago - I donned my dress blues for the last time, and boarded a Reeve Aleutian flight on Adak, to begin the long journey home.

Seems like another lifetime ago, but I wouldn't trade it for anything.

Seems like forever ago - and just yesterday, doesn't it?

BP - thank you.

Wing - forever, and just last week.

Yes, I am finding that time seems to be picking up speed as well.

Rev. Paul said...

TB - it seems so.

Rev. Paul,

It's hard to believe how time flies. Thank you my friend for your service. God Bless,
Sandy

One of the few things in life I regret NOT doing was serving in the military..

Thank you for picking up some of my slack!
