Going out on the Jeremiah Obrien to watch the air show. I always wonder if my dad worked on this ship. He was a machinist at the Kaiser Richmond yards. One of only two unaltered Liberty ships. Hope it was a blast! Was a beautiful day on the bay. Little wind, sunny. The kids on the boat had a blast running the bow ack-ack gun. Good show by the fliers. F35 flyby. Unfortunately we are building F35 type planes instead of a modern A10 with ground pounding guns for soft targets. I'm with you on the A-10s. They put on a demo for us with live ammunition on the Ft. Sill (Artillery Center) firing range when I was in school there. Unreal airplane. Problem is it is designed as a tank killer. We need low and slow that will survive attacking ground troops. Men’s different guns. 50’s or 30 cal. Gatling Guns. |
