I was about 5 years from retiring from FMC the manufacturer of the M113 and the Bradley.
My son was flying 40 missions off the forrestal in an EA6B -- 500' altitude at 600mph --
It did not take him long to realize those little blinking lites were not lights --

Thinking about what my brother was doing over there...and just like my uncle in Vietnam -"sorry sport what I did I can't talk about, even to family" only war stories I can get are from my dad in Korea. Why can't I have normal military relatives!!
