A Navy Pilot (this is really good, plz take the time to read it)

I am a Navy Aviator. I was born and raised in a small town in New England. I come from a family of five. I was raised in a middle class home and taught my values by my mother and father.
My dad worked a series of jobs in finance and my Mom took care of us kids. We were not an overly religious family but attended church most Sundays. It was a nice small Episcopal Church. I have a brother and sister and I am the youngest in my fmaily. I was the first in many generations to attend college.
I have flown Naval aircraft for 16 years. For me the flying was never a lifelong dream or a "calling," it just happened. I needed a job and I liked the challenge. I continue to do it today because I feel it is important to give back to a nation which has given so much to me. I do it because, although I will never be rich, my family will be comfortable.
I do it because many of my friends have left for the airlines and someone has to do it.
My government has spent millions to train me to fly these multi-million dollar aircraft. I make about 70,000 dollars a year and after 20 years will be offered a pension.
I like baseball but think the players make too much money. I am in awe of firemen and policemen and what they do each day for my community, and like teachers, they just don't get paid enough.
I respect my elders and always use sir or ma'am when addressing a stranger. I'm not sure about kids these days but I think that's normal for evry generation.
I voted for George Bush because I like him. I think I made a pretty good choice.
I tell you this because when I coe for you, I want you to know me. I won't be hiding behind a woman or a child. I won't be disguised or pretending to be something I am not. I will be in a U.S. issue flight suit. I will be wearing standard U.S. issue flight gear, and I will be flying a navy aircraft clearly marked as a U.S. warplane. I wish we could meet up in a small room where I could wrap my hands around your throat and slowly squeeze the life out of you, but unfortunately, you're hidng in a hole in the ground, so we will have to do this a different way.
I want you to know also that I am very good at what I do. I can put a 2,00lb weapon through a window from 10,000 feet up. I generally fly only at night, so you may want to start sleeping during the day. I am not eager to die for my country but I am willing to sacrifice my life to protect it from animals like you.
I will do everything in my power to ensure no civilians are hurt as I take aim at you.
My countrymen are a forgiving bunch. many are already forgetting what you did on Sept. 11th. But I will not forget, and my President will not forget.
I am coming. I hope you know me a little bit better, see you soon...sleep tight.
Signed
A U.S. Navy Pilot
I got this from my JROTC instructor and thought other might enjoy it. I did not check to see if this was already posted, so if it is I am sorry and I did not mean to post it again. Thank you for reading this and pass it on to other who might like it.
