Great Documentary Jim, love the parts of his father Lt. Col. Henry John Deutschendorf, Sr who flew the mighty B58 Hustler from Carswell AFB.
And the piece when he was with Jacques Cousteau, on board the Calypso hence the song.
Great music and story, except the ending of John what a shame.
Side note Jim, I wish the concert ticket prices were still the same.
My concert story (seems I always have a story, huh?):
Around 1992 my daughter asked me if she could go to a concert with U2 or some popular band. I asked her how much the tickets were. She told me they were $75 but she planned to pay for her ticket. I told her to go figure out how many hours she had to work at her Saturday job to pay for the ticket.
A few weeks later I asked her if she was going to the concert and she said "No, it's too expensive".
By comparison, in 1987 I would have had to work a little over one hour as a crew chief to pay for one of Jim's tickets.
Well Ray, all those DEI indoctrination courses are very expensive to put on Ya know! Grrrr!
Apparently, universities in the US have adopted the concert business plan. We were able to afford her 4 year college education in the 1990's without any debt, today, I couldn't afford my granddaughters first year of college without going into debt.
Rant over! The "feels like" temperature here in Central TX is 18° with gusts over 30 mph. Good weather to shoot a soccer game, thank goodness it's basketball tonight.
