T-6 Texan Taking the Air Over Little Rhody |
Apparently my oldest granddaughter,
Little Bit |
is something of an artist. She drew this recently (keep in mind she's not yet three) -
When Mom (The WSO) asked her what it was, her answer (I kid you not) was:
It's a Human
Not, "a man". Not, "it's Grampa". Not, "it's Daddy". No. "It's a Human." Of course it is.
And I had to share this video, from over at Buck's place. It is well worth your time. Trust me. Would this man lie to you?
Um, maybe. But not today. (Included this picture just to show y'all I do have some Air Force stuff.
But yeah, there's a F-18 pin, a DDG-94 pin, a Navy Future Surface Combatant pin and the crossed flags of the US of A and Germany. Commemorating my last active duty assignment. So yes Buck, I even put Navy on my Air Force stuff.
Oh, the BDU* shirt. Part of an old uniform which I now use for grass cutting and various and sundry outdoor chores. Because of the many pockets which are on it. I like pockets. There's a story there. Which I'll tell one of these days. Involves the Nuke it does. Who, when she saw me wearing this shirt said, and I quote, "So I'm guessing that wasn't as tight back in the day, huh Dad?" Takes after her old man she does. A real smart a$$ at times. You can tell she's one of mine. Easy.
Have a great weekend!
*BDU - Battle Dress Uniform
My old BDU's shrank too.
ReplyDeleteUm yes, that's what I told the Nuke. She wasn't buying it.
DeleteLOL, we've ALL had that problem...
ReplyDeleteI guess the materials used were not of such a high quality. I hear a lot of us vets have this problem. Has to be the material.
DeleteNot me. I never owned any BDUs; those things were for you young'uns. My sole remaining fatigue shirt fits just fine, as does my flea jacket.
DeleteThanks for the linky-lurve!
Braggart!
DeleteHow could I not link to that video? It was freakin' awesome.
