seedy 0 #26 February 13, 2011 Just finished Band of Brothers by Ambrose and then Beyond Band of Brothers by Dick Winters. Currently reading I Could Never Be So Lucky Again by Jimmy Doolittle. The last living pilot of Doolittle's Raiders died a few weeks ago. He was the father of one of my best buddies when I was in the Air Force. I intend to live forever -- so far, so good.

JohnMitchell 16 #43 February 14, 2011 Quote Faith is the Hunter ~Ernest K. Gann Uhhm, "Fate" is the Hunter. . . I love that book. I have an old copy in hardback and have read it maybe a half a dozen times. His observations on aviation and existence hold true today. Right now I'm reading "Balkan Ghosts" by Robert Kaplan, a look at the histories and cultures of the Balkan countries, and how that fuels the never ending ethnic feuds.

It's pretty cute I enjoyed Julia Child's autobiography, esp. the early years in post war Paris. She was quite a woman, very determined and adventurous.

Currently reading I Could Never Be So Lucky Again by Jimmy Doolittle. You'd probably enjoy "Currahee!" by Donald R. Burgett. I have it in paperback if you want to swing by after jumping and borrow it. I think I'll put that Doolittle book on hold at the library. Thanks for the suggestion.
