I just heard about it from a friend of mine in Anchorage... all four souls are lost. So very, very sad.

When it is allowable I am sure Brad can give us details. That is a tight community. There are a lot of former C-130 guys in the C-17 and a lot of guys from the C-17 in C-130's. We share resources over in the desert all the time.

I have read terrible things from other news websites on their message boards. I couldn't believe the insensitive comments and how both sides of the political spectrum turned this into a political argument all the way to the maltreatment of Viet Nam Vets and the wishes that Palin was on board. Can you believe that! Very sad.

Brad and I had great friends that were lost on the Havoc 58 crash at Jackson Hole Wy in 1996 and I know my heart cringes every time I read a headline like this. Prayers for the Airmen, family and friends...
