Thank you for the kind words.

Now its up to the new guys, who have this amazing, cosmic shitte on the A-10C that I would have traded a non-removable and non-replaceable body part to try or use. It was frustrating using the same old gear, we were under-funded, analog, crap stuff. On one of my last flights I dropped a 1000 lb., laser-guided bomb from 8000’ altitude on a little card table and hit it!! They were just giving me a taste of the new bombs.

Before that we had to do bombing with cheap DUMB bombs - hi angle, dive bomb with a constantly computing impact point - CCIP. Since dive bombing isn’t that accurate we needed to practiced dive bombing all the time. Six practice bomb passes for 1,000 flights or even 2,000 flights and you pull 4-6 g’ per pass. If you’re a 150 lb man that means you put 600 to 900 lbs of force on your spine 6-10 times a flight. Many American fighter pilots who retired out of the service now have bad spinal problems. I’m one of them. Two of my vertebrae are fused together and I’m in a lot of pain!!-

Thanks for your service and sorry for your fused spine, I have one of those also. Mine came was collateral damaged from years of heavy weight lifting. Not a good time to have one as they don't give medication out to treat long term pain any more. Ice and Advil only get me so far. Tried CBD oil, it didn't work for me.

Sorry to hear that. I guess heavy weight lifting and pulling “g’s” (gravitational) forces are the same. I thought it was super-cool to fly fighters at 50 years old. Maybe I was a super-fool. Lol.

Not to make too much of a plug for myself but I have written a book about leadership and my time in Iraq. It’s called:

“CRISIS IN BAGHDAD: Leadership in a Risk Adverse Environment”. It’s available on Amazon. If anyone get’s it tell me what you think.

I make a little beer money on each book, so help me get a Guinness! Lol.

When I’m not posting here I’m writing my second book about A-10 flying in Afghanistan, after 9/11. It will be called:

“IN THE SHADOW OF THE HINDU KISH”.

Hope to finish by the end of the year. I’ll keep everyone posted.

Thanks for all those who offered their support - really means something.
