Now, for everyone BESIDES sergeant dan here, Ed Rasimus actually flew
CAP during a mission over NVN which earned my Father a DFC. We've
talked about this in the past right here on RAM. The award was won in
an Oct. 5, 1966, rescue operation in which Captain Marron was
responsible for the rescue of two McDonnell F-4C Phantom crew members
shot down over North Vietnam. The description of this heroic rescue is
discussed in detail in Chapter 16 of Ed's book, "When Thunder Rolled."


Well marron, it's wonderful that Mr Marron was in a position to
and had the integrity and skill to do this heroic deed. I
sincerely congratulate him.

HOWEVER, I feel that his son certainly isn't living up to the
standards that he had apparently set. Doesn't it bother you at
least a little that a large group of strangers, most of whom are
quite familiar with these aeronautical subjects are comparing the
image of your father that you've painted and yourself who has
made such a cretinous lout of himself on this ng?.

I sincerely hope that there's no mechanism by which he can see
the embarrassing image that you've created for yourself here.
