Great point - time has always been an issue, especially when everything is fast paced these days and epending on the number of personnel you're over... it is hard to get the right word down through the chain of command sometimes. Thank you Jack!

Good morning Col Burroughs and all of my brothers and sisters here on VFV. There have been many great things that I have seen in my lifetime. God has given mankind the gifts and talents to do many marvelous things. I truly believe that in all of those things, we should always give Glory to the God of all Creation, because He is truly greater than all that we can do. Have a blessed day today and always.
