KJ5IRQ. Um, well, 9-11 of course was probably the most impactful for me personally. Um, and funny enough, I didn't even see that live when it happened, so I guess that one doesn't count. I was on a rifle range whenever that happened. The Challenger, I remember the Challenger exploding. I was in school just like Bill was. That was pretty bad. Everybody was sad, teachers were crying. I remember that. I remember when the wall came down, the Berlin Wall. I remember when that came down. Those are things I remember. I guess they're all impactful to an extent. I'm still going to say 9-11 even though I didn't actually watch it happen. That whole story was kind of different. We were on a range. We were sighting in our rifles. Just normal infantry, you know, mechanical things. You go there, you make sure your rifle is still sighted in. Blah, blah, blah, blah. And cattle trucks load up. And cattle trucks are basically 18-wheelers, like what Bill drives. But the trailer part is more like a cattle truck. Doors open up and they got benches and poles that people sit or stand and hold onto. That's how they can transport a lot of people with just a couple of vehicles. So anyhow, the cattle trucks load up and a full bird colonel got off the truck with a bullhorn. So I saw the ceasefire to gather our equipment and load up on the cattle trucks. I was told not to get on the cell phones. That was a big order. Not to get on the cell phones, get on the cattle truck, no talking. It was pretty rigid. We knew something was up. So then we ended up going down to the airfield and kind of got filled in on what was going on. So even though I didn't see 9-11, I still think it was one of the most impactful things. Of course, that led into Afghanistan and later Iraq. So impactful, yeah. There you go. I'm sure I'll think of something after the net, but that's how it typically works. KJ-5 ILQ. Back to KC-2 PKG.
