The last Bloggers’ Roundtable allowed me to interview Air Force Lt. Col. Ronald Wilt and Master Sgt. Jeffrey Flight of the Air Force Reserve’s 302d Airlift Wing. They are the only Air Force unit configured for wildland firefighting, dropping fire retardant.
When Lt. Col Wilt is sitting around the O Club, I imagine he hears a lot of TINS [This Is No Shit] stories from pilots who fly planes that begin with the letter F, F-15, F-16, F-18. “There I was, over Baghdad…”
His answer, I would suspect, is to invite them along on one of his missions.
