LOL yeah and I remember those drills, we wore dresses and there really was no way to modestly crawl under a desk.

Vossy -- you don't like me and I don't like you -- not really -- you befuddle me because I KNOW you're a fucking cool cat, man (see image below) -- but may I ask you something? Back home, as a child (whenever that was), did you fear the US nuking your country?

Not at all, but I did drink more booze, and getting that airforce women into bed was more important, followed by a confident excuse, that 'we' may not finish it off..?
I was married ...very poor ...and much happier back then than now
my house ex base was 700 years old, and we talked that if 'merica arrives, I will dig a bunker under the cellar
and for the other 12 hours in the day I would be replying to your assertions from 10000m
I also had my first indoor grow about 10.x10ft undet fat flouro tubes not T8 before that
that was mid 80's ...!

I've read that they were so loud and penetrating, the crew would be almost deaf for a few days after a mission

I read that F-14 and -15 pilots who "escorted" such aircraft away from Areas of Adult Supervision suffered headaches from the noise that penetrated their canopies and helmets.
You got sixteen propeller tips going THIS way and sixteen going THAT way and they cross each other at Mach one point zero something, for something like a continuous whip cracking. The sound pulse when the shocks crossed made for that distinctive rasping hum. i can only imagine the engineers looking at the turbojet side of the base and thinking "quiet pussies".
