Every year, I try and take out a few minutes and reminisce about the stories behind our ornaments. I bet you and your family have a few stories hanging on your tree too.
The neighborhood I live in goes a bit overboard at Christmas. Lights, lights and more lights. So much so, that on the weekends, you can hardly drive down the streets due to onlookers and trailers of people being pulled for hayrides as they sight-see.
I remember as a boy learning about this pioneer jet fighter. So imagine my delight when I saw one at the National Naval Aviation Museum. If it had been deployed a few years earlier, the battle of the skies in WWII could have gone very differently.
