Joe,

Your responses are refreshing and interesting.  I always enjoying 
reading people's opinions.  I can now see where you are coming from.   I 
have a number of friends in the military (Navy seal, Air force Vice 
admiral, Air force intelligence Turkey, Saudi intelligence,  ET 4 navy, 
and lots of Vietnam army.  My father was a Marine who survived Siapan, 
Terrawa, and Iwo Jima.  only 1/3 survived all these battles. ).  Their 
stories about the "information" they got from the military are 
fascination and very creative.  Lots of imagination comes out of the 
military "information" office.   OH, That's right BUSHIE wanted to make 
a cabinent post called the "Office of Disinformation!!" Yikes!

As does my 12 years of active duty in the US Air
Force, my two sons that are retired military (one
retired US Navy, one retired US Marine Corps), and my
grand daughter now in basic training at Fort Jackson,
SC.

During my younger years,  I spend a lot of time in Europe consulting to 
drug and medical device manufacturers.  I spend with a number of 
families for months and we discussed many quality of life issues and the 
US.    It was very enlightening listening to THEIR VERSION of history 
and compared to what we are taught in the US.  

Each country has its own view point.  Which one is right, I doubt we 
will ever know.  

Here is an interesting story.  According to Brazilian history.  THe 
Wright brothers were NOT the first ones to have powered CONTROLLED air 
flight.  A Brazilian aeronautic engineer did this and he took his 
aircraft all over the world demonstrating true POWERED controlled air 
flight.  The fine point in  their argument is that KITTY HAWK as a 40 
mph head wind which makes flight very easy in this beach area.  That is 
why the wright brothers chose that location.  AND we still do the same 
thing at airports today.  

We take off into the wind.  

The Brazilian airplane took off WITHOUT any head wind.  So whose history 
is right or most accurate?
