"Sign on, young man, and sail with me. The stature of our homeland is no more than the measure of ourselves. Our job is to keep her free. Our will is to keep the torch of freedom burning for all. To this solemn purpose we call on the young, the brave, the strong, and the free. Heed my call, Come to the sea. Come Sail with me." -- John Paul Jones

Thanks!
I should say, "Thanks for the memories." Edwards AFB was one of my favorite assignments...miss seeing all those new aircraft.

Yeah, but that was the P-3 Navy. Tailhook outfits are different.
I got this job after being laid off at Hawker Beechcraft in Wichita. Got laid off February 26, 2009 and started here on November 9 that same year.
