Almost there!
Posted by Cobrahistorian on Thursday, October 30, 2003 9:15 PM
Ugh... its been a long, difficult haul, but my masters thesis is just about done. Its gotta be handed in at 9AM tomorrow, after which I will FINALLY be able to clear off my desk and resume work on my six Cobras and three Apaches. 20 more pages to write and twelve hours to do it in... Piece of cake.

Things are looking up...

See ya!

Congrats, Jon! What was the thesis topic? Would it be enlightening reading for the masses?

Should we start calling you Master Cobrahistorian?

Jon,

Congrats on the work. Maybe the someone will reward you by issuing a new AH-1G kit!

BTW, the patch from the 95th FS ("Once a Bone Head, always a Bone Head"), if you are still up on the net, do you know a guy named "Heater?"

Thanks guys!

The topic was "Maintaining Objectivity in Controversial Museum Exhibits" to be used as a blueprint for the up-coming Vietnam Museum that will be built at Texas Tech.

Wade, I'm not really allowed to say anything just yet, but your Cobra comment may be a bit closer than you think!

Master Cobrahistorian? Hmm.... Nah... I'm just waiting till I get to my unit, when they'll have to call me Doctor Lieutenant!

TL,

Yeah, I keep telling myself that.... doesn't seem to work very well on those PT runs though. I hate running. As far as my thesis goes, I got SCREWED! Well.... it was partially my fault for handing it in so late, but anyhow, I've got a complete rewrite to do in order to be able to defend it. Not good. I hate this crap. The good news is, my Apaches book is underway and moving ahead steadily.

Later!
