This week we are joined by "Curly" of the VMA-231 Ace of Spades squadron. Curly closes the loop on some of the fun discussed in episode 15 - "Sir, Don't Eat the Donuts" and other escapades of the LRF.

Curly also tells us about some of his 38 combat missions in Gulf War I and how he survived in spite of himself. He sheds light on the adrenalin flow and narrow focus experienced in early combat missions no matter how well-trained one may be. Then there are several other stories of hijinks, fun, and near tragedy relayed by this skilled raconteur.

This is our first sponsored show. If you need an idea for that perfect custom and thoughtful gift, reach out to Robin at RobinsBirdBrainDesigns.com Robin will make your gift-giving efforts this year appear thoughtful and unique!
