A blurb about the Black Bird

For those interested, this link takes you to one of those
"BuzzFeed" type sites. My interest was two-fold. I didn't
know that it had been fired upon (unsuccessfully of course)
by more than 4000 missles! My other interest was some
heretofore unseen pics (unseen by me, that is)

You have to excuse the writing and some of the facts are a
bit skewed.

I TinyURL'ed it for not willing to mess with the actual URL.
