Very good Doug. They have my respect, and thanks at all times.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Good Call Doug.

I took part in a 21 gun salute at the Golden Gate National Cemetery today for those who gave all.

Every time I squeezed the trigger I shouted OOHRAH!!!

Good afternoon all...

Proud to say a record turnout all across Canada for our serving military and veterans... Wink

Beautiful warm day it was and the school children, hundreds of them were all well behaved...just awesome Remembrance Day.

Canada lost it's last World War One Veteran this year, he was one hundred and nine years old and they said by the year 2014 there might not be too many World War Two Veterans left as that would put the average age of the Veteran at ninety three years of age.

Last night we had a roast beef supper, mashed and roasted potatoes, brussels sprouts, peas, three or four different types of cold salads, pickles, olives and all kinds of pies.
This was all put on by the Ladies Auxillary of the Legion and everything was home made or cooked at the Legion kitchen.
I think we gained several pounds... Grin

Speeches were short which was good and I received a Long Service Award.
Another thing to add to my "I love me wall"... Grin

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug
