well i started with the idea of 4 verses and it kept going. i liked the idea of 6 lines and in each verse and this is the result. i thought of halfing it but i decided not to. its a bit of everything. poem, prose, story. on re reading it, i think how interesting it was to train people to do this job but also how crazy it is. of course it never happened and its left to writers to speculate what it would be like. ww3 nuclear war with russia. some of the exact details are out, like did an f-105 have zone3 afterburner and would they fly from england to russia on a one way suicide mission? or be forward based in europe when trouble started. had a bit of brandy when i did this or there was no way id even attempt to write it, the topic matter aint easy or nice. thanx for reading:)
