#1 I wish Prince Wangchuk (who's a real man) a speedy recovery and future success, both military and academic.

#3 My brother, LtC USAF, flew with said Saudi Prince in GW1. His (the saudi's) idea of combat operations was for the USAF to 'herd' enemy fighters his way. My brother's sqaudron has an award named the "Saudi" after this guy. It's not a good thing to win. The Prince fired every missile on his plane at 1 Iraqi fighter. The Iraqi fighter still managed to land safely and unscathed in Iran, as our guys were ordered to "let the Prince get the kill". The award goes to the guy with the most shots in a month that are off-target.
