2012-12-24 thru 2013-02-28 Foley-Gulf Shores Alabama Part 3

 USS Alabama
What a Grand ol' Lady
 Remember many a night seeing the B52 Stratofortress
in my younger days
Sounded like the humm from a swarm of hornets




 In Viet Nam I had to dig the dud rounds from these guns out of the ground
Sometimes 20 ft below ground
Fortunately there were very few duds
Most went Ka-boom


 Soviet MIG
Hard to beat and thankfully they were kept out of battle because they had so few of them



Now they make me feel a little claustrophobic
