Targets on the ATO were bombed. Of course we probably could have done better if Bush were there, and Kerry had stayed longer. Thank you for that, Billy! I wonder if either man would be running for president today, if he had served a normal tour on the ground, or in the air or on the water,...

Looking at JV-44's craft the main commanders of this flight had aircraft with either six 30mm guns (Bär) or massive cannon (Herget) but why didn't Galland do anything to his ME-262 like the others?
