<B> Sometimes, a Hot insertion is necessary, esp. when there's a man on the ground. Check out some Historical data on the Vietnam War, a big percentage of the choppers lost there were taken out during Medical Evacuation in a Hot LZ. Now, Max maybe didn't make the right call there, but, then agian, maybe he made the only call he could, a matter of choosing between bad, and worse. Over all, he did a good job with what he had. Where a board of Inquiry might have questions is a hell of a lot further up the chain of command, where, (again) compromises had to be made, and this returns to a Bad/Worse scenario up THERE. Monday Morning Quarterbacking is a long-recognized sport with Oversight committees that don't risk their lily-white behinds on the front lines. I've engaged in some right here, myself, but, in the end, it's a matter of circumstances dictate our actions, and those actions often have Murphy's Arse attached.</B><HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Yeah, I know. But I needed to poke at Max, since he called me a nitwit. I admit, it was a lame poke (it's hard to find something to honestly criticize about him, outside of his arrogance), and he's already retaliated in his usual calm manner. (~-^)<P>

<B>On a side note: Am I right in guessing that Max's Crew Chief looks really hot when she isn't in a Sweat-Bag covered in hydraulic fluid?--^</B><HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Well, <i>I</i> think so. Diana's got some muscles, and she's nice and filled out. I don't know what people find attractive about girls who are Callista Flockhart thin. That just looks sickly, to me. Slender is fine, but anorexic-looking is not.<P>(~-^)<P>Kaichi
