It went straight to our shop and we could get it out then. I always brought back some trinket or something through customs, just because, LOL, LOL I always figured it was stupid to have a British customs agent on a base we actually controlled.

    Oh yeah, I was at bentwaters when that Alien $#@! went down in 79 and again in 80. That stuff was for real and the Base commander who did the TV program about it was a straight up guy. Nobody lied about any of that stuff, if anybody has heard about it. I'll personally vouch for it all being true....
    I have heard about the Bentwaters alien stuff. Good to hear from someone who was there.

    Ever hear about the MIG-29 that was confiscated/captured...whatever, that was being guarded by none other than some 82nd infantry joes who'd decided that testing out the ejection seat would be a great idea?

    I didn't hear that one. My regiment was on the front lines, unlike the rest of the Division. They would probably know.

    One of the guys in my Ranger class was the dummy who'd ejected, his squad leader in Iraq was one of the RI's in the desert phase, we didn't hear the end of it because that same dummy lost his rubber duck - at White Sands of all places...there's no words to describe how much we'd low crawled looking for that rubber duck while his ex-squad leader turned RI yelled at the top of his lungs that he was gonna wish he had died ejecting from that MIG if we didn't find it...an entire day and half and a night later we found it, the dummy got to live but had to recycle the desert phase.

    If it were up to me I would've voted him off the island, I'm pretty sure he would've been peered out had he stayed in that class. I don't know why, but I thought for sure he'd come from the 325th, it was awhile ago though and there was about twenty guys in the beginning from Bragg and a few from the 173rd, I could've mixed it up somehow.

    Not only is it catching air, it's firing at the same time.
