An Explanation
OK, since there might be two people in the world who might read this now and then, an explanation, hopefully to convince you I am not an egotistical nut.
Voodoo Warrior - isn't a rip of the almost not known at all musical group. It isn't a reference to some mystical Caribbean power. It is a tribute to my father. He flew the F-101 Voodoo in USAF service during the height of the Cold War. Loaded down with a nuclear weapon, his mission was to fly across Europe at 50 feet, going 600mph, to deliver his weapon on a still classified target behind the Iron Curtain. I am astounded to this day that he survived 3 years of doing that, and he will forever be my hero.
By the way, that's his aircraft (56-0006) in the title photo, seen in 1961.

I ignored your comment about the tissue - I shouldn't have. This is long overdue. Thank u for sharing.
Thanks Voodoo, that was awesome.
This link to this awesome video has generated more hits on this blog than any other entry I have made.
What this video conveys is a hell of a lot more important than all of the words I have laid down here put together - by a long shot!
