I was so blessed to have an opportunity to be a Chaplain of an Aviation battalion on my last assignment.
While I don’t really like to fly, I do think that it is the coolest thing in the world to see them take off and land and fly over head.
Here at Striker, I am again near an air field–Baghdad International Airport to be exact. It is great to see the helicopters fly all around us and over us throughout the day and the night.
A friend of mine mentioned that it feels so “war like”.
It is pretty cool.
