You actually think AS-204 was a military operation?

You don't need to respond. I apologize to the group for
hiving joined in on this mess.

DUH??????????????? Yes, I "actually think AS-204 was a military
operation." What do YOU think it was? A joyride?

No, a NASA operation. Even "stuffy" wouldn't argue that it was a military
operation. AS-204 was not under military command or control. It did involve
several military personel as flight crew. Heck, does this mean that the LA
Raiders' games in 1986 were military operations since running back Napoleon
McCullum was on active duty in the Navy (but permitted to play for the
Raiders that season.) Is my D&D game a military operation since one of my
players is in the Marine Corps Active Reserve?

I realize I'm getting older, but surely with the news coverage of the
past week you have heard of the "Cold War?" What do you think the
race to the Moon was all about? Just a bunch of flyboys getting the
ride of their lives courtesy of our tax dollars, with which of course
we had absolutely nothing better to do with that money?
As for D&D, I think that says a lot about the person to whom I am
speaking.
