    Thank you for sharing that with us, Dan. It was interesting to watch it. However, it does not tell the whole story, of the controversy, inter-service rivalry and politics involved. It could not go into that in such a short time.

    I thought this was pretty neat. Read several articles about the event. Pretty awesome to see some actually film footage.
