<This is pretty good. God Bless the U.S. Air Force!
<Subject: Message from a Hawg Driver (A-10 Warthog)
<
<(Someone pulled this off the Air Force Academy's {very
<unofficial}message board. Written by a '96 grad who apparently flies
<A-10s. What we all are REALLY thinking, but a HOG driver says it.)
<
<"Make no mistake about it... this war is gonna be a Hawgdriver's dream...no
<more of this sending GPS guided bombs from the ionosphere... I want to camp
<out on the enemy's border... I want to yell across the border, in the
<immortal words of Wyatt Earp (as portrayed by Kurt Russell), "You tell 'em
<I'm coming! AND HELL'S COMING WITH ME!!"
<
<I wanna punch Bin Laden in the face and say, 'You gonna do something? Or
<just stand there and bleed?' And then, I wanna laugh maniacally, as my 30mm
<shells decimate his camps.
<
<I ain't talking about the Armor Piercing shells this time, although the
<thought of poisoning their lungs (if, in the unlikely event, they survived
<my attack) with the dirty dust of spent uranium is quite refreshing... that
<would make the cloud over New York seem like pure Oxygen.
<
<I want High Explosive Incendiary (HEI) rounds...1150 of them, fired 2 or 3
<hundred at a time... like 3 hundred grenades exploding all at once... and
<that's just my jet... the three coming with me brings that total to 16 cans
<of CBU-87...that's 3,232 individual submunitions for them...that's what I
<want.
<
<I want 4 Maverick missiles per jet...that's 16 of those things...and if we
<run outta trucks and other small things to hit with those missiles, I wanna
<find out what a maverick will do when it locks onto a terrorist and hits him
<at just over 1000 feet per second...there might not be enough deceleration
<to detonate the thing but at that speed... I don't think it would be
<necessary.
<
<And I want 2 pods of rockets, hanging from my wings. Seven white phosphorous
<and seven HEI... I want the 'Willie Petes' to put a cloud of smoke, to climb
<into the sky, to let everyone following know...that's where the gettin' is
<good...
<
<And the HEI... well, I just want FRAG in the air, tearing apart their
<greasy, scumbag bodies the same way they tore into our nation... and then
<we'll start cleaning up with the almighty General Electric GAU-8/A Avenger
<cannon... what a perfect name... AVENGER CANNON!!!
<
<If that's all I had, that's all I'd want... four hawgs, with 4600 of our
<little friends... lock and load, hammer down!!!!!
<
<But that's just my personal end... here's what else I want...I want John
<Madden, Terry Bradshaw and Howie Long, to take over CNN, NBC, ABC and every
<other news network, to provide coverage of this war...
<
<I want Madden, with his electronic chalkboard, out there describing what's
<going on... "You see here, across the top of the screen, that ridge line is
<exactly where the attack is gonna come from... you'll see the Warthawgs come
<popping over them and unleash a fury that we haven't seen since Lawrence
<Taylor was on the prowl...Speaking of that, here they come and BAM!!! These
<guys are great!... they remind me of linemen... they don't get much press
<coverage, but when they hit you,man do you know it!"
<
<I want Hank Williams, Jr. and Lee Greenwood belting out, "I'M PROUD TO BE AN
<AMERICAN," as the intro to "Monday Night Air Strikes"..."Fight night" would
<have a whole new meaning now...I want to see Sports Center air, the "HIT OF
<THE DAY":..."Today's strike comes from a flight of two A-10 Warthogs..
<You'll see here that some terrorist got
<
<the wild idea that he could shoot at these guys...you can see the missile
<come up and totally miss the two jets... and here, you see, as they roll in
<and unleash that awesome gun on the point of origin,...nothing left there
<now! And that's our, PLAY OF THE DAY!!"
<
<I want Mills Lane, in the field, giving play by play descriptions.
<
<I want "Flight of the Valkaries" playing at full bore, from every
<mountainside, as we run in at 100 feet....
<
<I want "WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE," playing after the first bomb hits, and when
<I'm WINCHESTER ammunition, I wanna land on Bin Laden's personal airstrip,
<grab him by his twisted, dead neck and poke him in the eyes and say, "YOU
<JUST GOT KNOCKED OUT!"
<
<I want the NFL cheerleaders to send us off to war, and the XFL cheerleaders
<to welcome us home. And while we're at it? I don't just want to beat the
<crap outta these scumbags, I want to humiliate them, too.
<
<I want to see Schwartzkopf come outta retirement, to start kicking some
<butt... I want a cure for Alzheimer's - right now - to get Reagan back in
<working order, and like Dennis Leary says, I want a cure for cancer, to
<thaw out the 'Duke' and see just how pissed off he is right now.
<
<I want STUKA terror sirens, mounted to the wings of my Hawg...although the
<unique whine of our engines is about all the terror siren we'll need right
<now...
<
<All right, Zero... slow down... breathe... in... out....ok... I think the
<coffee has worn off a bit now, and I should get back to work. You just
<picked the wrong people to mess with...not such a good day to be a bad guy."
