Doing good least I am on the Short list still and not the long list. Just enjoying life day by day.
AMEN!!!!  We have lost too many! Here I was, worried about you? I feel blessed, to have been able to do what I did!                         Kenai77, asked me the other day.."You talked with Molsman lately? I recall, you guys had special relationship?"  Yes sir, we did!  I havent talked with him for about 2 years.   "Ok, me either, except on BBS sometimes. Was just wondering, I miss that GUY!!!!"   Kenai,"He posted on "Players that are gone...post"  "HE LIVES"!!!! :salute

Stumbled in here to find this...

...I really appreciate the kind words.  I was just lucky to be surrounded by good men.  You've got to have good men.

Starts with a great leader though. Good to see you still kicking around.  :cheers:


Thought you might appreciate this.

Last FSO Rider was flying with us. Twice he was separated from us and had an LA5 chasing him. He reversed them and killed them both. Then I hear a laugh and "I still got it"! Was great to hear him having fun. Although he did say you got him into this when he was 12. Bunch of us are like WTF.  :old: :old: :old:

Thats great Ron!  Yeah no one ever knew how young he was when I got him strapped in.  He told me he's been doing FSO with the gang when able.  Thats great!  Miss all you guys.

His younger brother just became a father too!  I really am old.  Yeah Walter would be top of my list if I was still in game as well.

Every Friday night around 11pm Est in the back of my Mind I Hear Walter singing to us like Clock work every week no matter what I am doing . Crap Karen and I tried numerous ways to try and send him cakes to Canada but the dumb shipping rules screwed that all up she made!  Walter also talked to my Wife Karen a few times. I went hey hun Vilkas wants to talk to ya and she would put my headset on and talk to him. Great Guy all Around............

All time Hero of Mine I have to find it again but he sent me a Picture of Himself when he was a Boyscout long before the War

This is a sad thread Ive had to catch up on. Widewing, Tex, Sky, Mudr, Dave, Vega "I flew some missions with 91'st", ET, of course Wasp I knew about, Pip, Alaskn, DR7, Vilkas, Whels, wolf, To many names I remember either flying with or against. I almost joined them myself a few years ago but by Gods grace will be staying on the ground for awhile. I hope.

Its good to still see some old names still around. :salute

 I knew how young he was,we share a common birthday and that’s why I always remembered his. Mine was just 30 some odd years before his.

So do they call you grumpy gramps these days?  Congrats.
