Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Happy Thanksgiving!I remember my first Thanksgiving away from family as a 19 year old machinegunner in Vietnam many years ago. That was a very lonely experience eatingcold C-rations from a can in SE Asia. It's really not much different today for anyone serving in foreign land today. Or for service men and women who are notaway but on US soil and who wont be home on-leave because they have important jobs they are doing tomorrow at their naval bases, forts, air bases or other military installations. These are the folks who are preserving our freedoms.Let's be thankful of all our service members, sacrificing a favorite holiday for all of us. Turkey MREs can't compare to what comes out of our own ovens (or fryers) at this time of year. If you offer thanks at your meal as many of usdo, remember these American's who will be wearing the uniform tomorrow, as we sit down at our tables, in the comfort of our warm homes, with family and friends.S.B.________________________________________________________________________________

Subject: Pietenpol-List: Happy Thanksgiving!This is probably going to be the first Thanksgiving that I won't doze off early tonight, filled with turkey dinner, because when we get home from sister-in-law's house later tonight, I will be heading for the basement to beginjoining the two fuselage side frames into a real fuselage. Won't be long and I'llbe able to sit in 'er and make engine noises! (Yes, I'll be able to get the fuse out of the basement -- there's a nice big door straight outside! The wings will have to be assembled in the garage whenever spring arrives here in the "Great Northern.")And in the spirit of the day, many thanks to Matt Dralle for this site and many thanks to all who have shared their tips, advice and wisdom...Fred B.La Crosse, WI________________________________________________________________________________Date: Thu, 25 Nov 2004 19:06:50 -0800 (PST)
