    I've lost two buddies in rotary-wing crashes. One was in a civilian bird with a new-ish pilot. The other was in a Blackhawk flown by the 160th. It can happen to anyone.

    Yes, you're right, and I stand corrected. That said, I have pulled guard duty in Condition 0. We were given pool cues once, but that was a more innocent time.

    What are the two between the Scout and the SSG? I think the second one up is the Model 30 Remington in 30-06 that he wrote about. I have no idea about the one above it.
