Thanks, everybody!
I do appreciate all the good wishes!
Paco asked if I ever thought I would make 60.
I remember one particular instance, not too far outside the left door of a C-141, that a 21 year old paratrooper thought he had celebrated his last birthday.
It's NICE to have arrived at 60.
And it's even better since here I am among all you fine people!
Thanks again for all the good tidings!
