Air National Guard gets no respect

Formerspook reports that the guys who got the Z man were the Air National Guard from Alabama and Wisconsin.

I googled for the news, and didn't see it. Wonder why?

So let me offer them thanks, from a lowly Army NG Captain(ret)You know this film was coming:


---------------
There is a US state department advisory about traveling to the Philippines.

This is not just due to Moro/Muslim threats, but the increase in the war agains the local communists, who have been in this area for about 60 years. (Check a couple posts back I mentioned the Philippine Army is in our local villages.)
Well, the reason is that GMA decided to reverse her previous cooperation with the local NPA (communists) and go after them.

Combined with this increased security is an increase in funding for local agribusiness...(That's us). The Philippines still imports rice, yet has the potential to be a rice exporter.

Relatives might ask if I'm afraid, and the answer is: Been there, done that.
But that's another story...
