Get Some Leigh Ann.

Way to go.

That is my kinda woman.......I wonder if she can handle the M2? All joking aside, awesome job "get some girl".

There were a couple of Red Cross volunteers, we called them "Doughnut Dollies", in Viet Nam who, I think, should have been awarded the Bronze Star Medal with "V" device.

Those were great gals.

And a hearty "Well done . . ." to the young lady.

She is a good testament to women serving here in Iraq! We need a few more like her.

That would be "pull pitch", but that's OK, I don't have jump wings. . .

oook, so I am not to educated on aviation. I just jump on and go for the ride.

Do wish I had taken the opportunity to go to jump school. I could have between basic and flight school, but once you get your bar and wings you can't go to jump school as a pilot because you can screw up your legs and become worthless in you MOS (military occupational specialty)
