Call in some "air" with 500 lb IR guided bombs
to blow them out of the water from altitude. If these pirates discover
their boats are simply disappearing without a trace they might stop
going out.
Use 250 lb bombs, they will vaporize a small boat just as thoroughly,
and you can carry more of them. You can get six to a pylon, two triple
ejector racks one behind the other. With an A-10 that's sixty of them.
them. Tons lighter. More fuel. Your bomb load and milage may vary.
Ed Zeiben. That reminds me of Ed Zeiben. Worked with him at IH in
1968. We were heat treaters. Big, wiry guy. WWII vet.
The yippies and other trash were rioting in Grant Park, a few miles
away from IH Tractor Works.
He had the answer to the riots.
"One 500-pounder. That'll take care of 'em."
But he was an optimistic kinda guy.
You worked at IH in the sixties? Kewl. That would have been during
the era of the number series tractors - 544, 656, 756, 856 and 1256
models if I'm not mistaken.
