Dear Folks

How is every one? I'm O.K. now after a good nights sleep. Flew only fourteen (14) hours yesterday. That's a long time to stay up in a plane. Had over four hrs of gas left at that. Coming back last nite we hit the dangest storm, went around the worst part. Its no fun tho flying around up there in a thunder storm. Especially at nite. Well we made it in good shape tho. I guess censorship hasn't lifted yet. Hope it does soon so I can tell you a few things about these recon missions...
