Clip of the day...

Remember how the B-52's used to fly over on the way back to Anderson even after they said they weren't flying to Vietnam and Cambodia anymore?

Now we have new planes in the skies. The other day I was down at the beach when three of these flew over. They are amazing to watch, like out of a science fiction movie or something.

Paul, I remember while living at Harmon Village, we use to count them as they left, and count them as they (B-52's) returned.Always hoping the same number of them left that returned!

Hey Paul thanks again. In your clip of the Baracuda, it brought back several memories. I used to film when I dove. My mom has a bunch of 8mm I took.
The Baracuda brought back a story. I was diving and something took my mask off me. A Barakuda hit it thinking (I guess) it was a fish. They feed off a small shinny fish. We all painted every thing silver on our dive gear black after that. I wish I had kept the mask, it had the teeth marks on them. Oh yea, I did finish the dive without a mask.
That was the second dive I did without a mask. The first, I was going over the reef and a wave smashed me back down on the coral and shattered my mask. Yes Pat, this was with Russel Clayshult (I can't spell).

you spell fine drl. Didn't know you were a diver. I always wanted to be, but was a little scared I guess. I was an excellent snorkeler though. does that count?

The 'Bat Plane'! No, just kidding. I new that that was a stealth bomber. I'm glad to see our stealth fliers are hard at work in the Pacific! (Paul must have some kind of secrete camera that picks up stealth objects...hmmmm, any UFO's yet that you want to share us)?

***But really though, on a serious note, thanks Paul for the nice pics! Keep them coming, often! Your bringing back a lot of memories and are updating us on the current Guam!

Paul, you alone are our lone eye on the 'Rock'!

Another great shot. But don't be surprised when Homeland Security comes knocking on your door. And whatever you do, don't tell them about the fort we had behind your house... OK? lol
