From them, we learned a phrase Mary still uses. In a dangerous auto situation, including speeding, she calmly utters, "Crash. Crash. Crash." If nothing else, the humor corrects my actions.Dee FitzGeraldhttp://www.deefitzgerald.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4512963158177331315.post-647927705816363452012-04-08T16:39:48.044-07:002012-04-08T16:39:48.044-07:00This is a comment I got:

Among the units we hosted was VMFA-333. A rather unique bunch of guys they were. It was my first exposure to Marine Air. The Gunny who was in Flight Deck Control when I was the phone talker for the Handler was the most interesting man I had ever met back then and remains so to this day.

There's something about the excited voice that draws attention to the source of the voice rather than the content of the message.<br /><br />Un-related - No Betty in the F-4? I thought there was.
