Hmmmmm...everyone ready for this? I remember the Gulf War, I was young and terrified the whole time, and I didn't even know anyone serving. Now I know quite a group of people in the forces, but it isn't so hard for me to deal with, it's good that I learned not to be so scared with age!

I thought I was ready till a few minutes ago, was sitting here typing at work and the TV is in the office next to mine and the test signal came on real loud (you know the test tv stations have each week) scared the crap outa me my heart is still pounding. When i heard it everyone in the office just stopped doing what they were doing it was so quiet. Dang

Marshall it was in the no fly zone and those targets were command and control positions.

Very true Chad, war brings out conflicting emotions in everyone.
