Somebody sent these to my Mom and I thought they were really cool.

What do you think about these? We really should be thankful for people like these guys. If you are a veteran or active member of the military I just want to say thanks.

one of the top 5 coolest things I've done was ride in a helicopter. It was a Hughes 500 series, with no doors. We were severall hundred feet up, and he went completely sideways with only a lapbelt. It's a small copter, so my arm was basically hanging out. But the cool thing was the centrifugal force prevented me from falling over. It was so cool.

I'd love to do that kind of thing. The company my Dad used to work for had a stunt squadron that flew bi-planes and he went up with them once and said it was quite a roller coaster.

We can logically extrapolate the answer to that:

The soldier in question required medical attention in the field;

Ergo the soldier in question did not immediately surrender upon deployment;

Therefore said soldier, being either British or French, can not have been French, and must therefore be British.

That's what I plan on going into the Air Force for, Pararescue. I hope I'll make it but they have a 90% drop out rate.
