Funny Story

Post by :FI:Dr_Strangelove » Tue Jul 25, 2006 3:18 pm

I note that the only Marine ace in Korea was flying a USAF fighter
in a USAF fighter squadron.... John "Jack" Bolt, who launched West to his
final reward in 2004, was the only two-war U.S. Marine Corps ace. As a
junior officer during World War II, he scored six enemy kills while flying
the Vought F4U Corsair. As a major, he scored six more while flying the
North American F-86 Sabre during a Korean War exchange tour with the U.S.
Air Force.

Jack Bolt was a hoot. During a commercial airline flight several years
ago, he was seated next to a young mother with a babe in arms.
When the baby began crying during the descent for landing, the mother
began nursing him as discreetly as possible.

Jack pretended not to notice and, upon debarking, he gallantly offered his assistance to
help her with the various baby-related paraphernalia.
When the young mother expressed her gratitude, Bolt responded: "Gosh,
that's a good looking baby.... and he sure was hungry!"

Somewhat embarrassed, the mother explained that her pediatrician said
nursing would help alleviate the pressure in the baby's ears.

Jack snapped his fingers, shook his head, and in true fighter pilot fashion
exclaimed, "Dang! And all these years I've been chewing gum!"
