Rachel, you are awesome! This captures so much about his early stint as CAG. I love the book dropping and the comments from the sidelines! Can you imagine how hard it must've been to step in as CAG and do 237 intercepts! Holy Frak! It's a wonder he didn't just say frak it. Amazing.

Oh and I am one of those who loved him being so protective of his pilots. I think is a good thing.
