<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Well, our snow showers yesterday turned into between 10" and a foot of snow. Apparently we had to prove our manhood today and we launched 10 airplanes into marginal visibility and snow showers and went out about a hundred miles over the Yellow Sea to do some "fighting". We wear these rubber body suits in case we have to eject into the water. It allows you to live long enough to get into your one-man life raft and hang out for a couple of hours while you wait for the rescue helicopter. We made it back just as a snow storm was advancing over the airfield. By the time we rolled out from landing, you could barely see 300 feet in front of you. I was pretty sure I was going to get a free trip with a divert to Osan Air Base (where there is a Chili's-which is a big deal for us Kunsan guys). Fear not, all was in accordance with the regulations - we're the best all-weather Air Force on the planet...which is good in case you need to go whip somebody's ass.</font></div><div><font face="Arial" size="2" /></div><div><font face="Arial" size="2">Welcome to winter.</font></div><div><font face="Arial" size="2" /></div><div><font face="Arial" size="2">Shane - I realize we weren't getting shot at, so the only threat of death was if someone screwed up or an engine ***** the bed...</font></div><div><font face="Arial" size="2" /></div><div><font face="Arial" size="2">T - tell the girls I'm waiting for them before I go make snow angels.</font></div><div><font face="Arial" size="2" /></div><div><font face="Arial" size="2">Rock and roll,</font></div><div><font face="Arial" size="2">Sean</font></div>

Thank them Rick. They are good, proud men!!!! My oldest boy writes from Iraq, saying it is a "***** hole" and he cannot wait to get home. There are many in the service that aren't able to be here to enjoy the simple pleasures many of us take for granted. And they are proud to do it. Merry Christmas to our service men and women!!!!!!!!!
