Gen. Brett's new command, B Coy, 320th AA Balloon Bn.*, shortly after training and deployement from Fort Davis in Tennessee, conducts an exercise over the Canal. No tittering now, we haven't seen at least 3 of the Jap carriers for weeks. We dont want another Pearl Harbor,do we.

Not to worry though. Just keep using those Lysanders and Wirraways a bit longer

Dang..you guys are too good with the references. I need to be a little more oblique perhaps.

Check this out...Rodenberry really was a B17 pilot in the South Pacific

Regrettably, he seems to have fallen from J. Edgar's favor sometime between the war and the 1950's, when he was a Detective on the LAPD.
