Kang Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 Yes, reviving this thread, mostly because I feel that more people deserve to read the OP. I've made an effort of my own for this year - not quite as elaborate but it's heartfelt: «Twas the flight before Christmas, when all through the hold Not a word was spoken by young or by old Tired of shots, of rockets, of war They all took a moment and knew there was more The rotor above made a steadily sound Through the back door: snow-glistened the ground Although not red, but all green and gray They flew over town, like Santa's own sleigh Soaring above a village and town They'd make it back home and set safely down Late was the night in deep winter and cold But all gathered happy, sang loudly and bold Soldiers and tankers and pilots and crew They all wished for one thing for all to come true: That there'd be one season of joy and of light In which there is peace on Earth for a night.» 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkeye60 Posted December 23, 2023 Author Share Posted December 23, 2023 And A Happy New Year! @Kang Very well done! Thank you! Best wishes to you and yours! "Yeah, and though I work in the valley of Death, I will fear no Evil. For where there is one, there is always three. I preparest my aircraft to receive the Iron that will be delivered in the presence of my enemies. Thy ALCM and JDAM they comfort me. Power was given unto the aircrew to make peace upon the world by way of the sword. And when the call went out, Behold the "Sword of Stealth". And his name was Death. And Hell followed him. For the day of wrath has come and no mercy shall be given." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
