#5 I have not read it. Our peacenik professor gave us a choice of Catch 22 or MASH and I read the latter.
Nevertheless, I am aware that Yossarian and Major+ are characters and that Y's post is probably a quote.
What is the point of appending this to the original message?

#7 In WWII, to make it back from 25 missions was a Big Deal.
RIP Col. Morgan and all the crew of the Memphis Belle.

#8 Im'a sorry AC didn't mean to raise feather. It just that later in the war the mission number kept raising and raising and raising by the time I got to the great big siege of Bologna I've already had 67 missions and one of those was with the Snowdens of yesteryear. I'm mean no disresect.

#11 I don't care if it was 25 missions or 1. The man served his country honorably in its time of need. Thank you, Col. Morgan!
