He might have lost it during the crash which is entire crew was killed. He still has not answered for their deaths.

However you answered your own question. We don't know.

Why he survived and the other perished know one will ever know

it is assumed he bailed out with out giving the others the warning to do so.

When you break down "assume" you know what you get.

You can assume his crew couldn't get out due to battle damage so I suppose he should have went down with the aircraft?

I can assume Bill Clinton was a CIA operative carrying out clandestine missions in North Vietnam (okay that's stretching it) but that wouldn't make it valid.

We can assume a lot.

I imagine getting shot down off the coast of an enemy country is a bit traumatic. Any psychologist will tell you most people don't really remember what happens during a traumatic experience.
 
Hard to take the high road when there is such ignorant posters. You don't know anything about the incident, so you come up with a ridiculous delusional account of what happened.

At least my "rant" was based on the truth

Your truth is based on what? The official text book truth? Come on your not that naive...are you? I posted a link to site which showed the controversy on the Bush 41 crash. It seems he changes the story all the time which makes people very curious why he has to do that, unless he happens to be hiding something. If you can't except the fact that there are a lot of unanswered questions about that mission than I can not help you see the light. You will believe what you wish, but that does not make what I say wrong. Maybe you don't like it, but that does not mean its not true. Your personal attack shows that you really are a small minded person who does not like to be provoked into thinking for yourself. There are too many people in this world that put blinders on, and march to the beat of the drum until they die, without ever stepping back and taking a look at what you are being fed. That I can not help you with, you will have to learn the hard way that the truth is not always clear, especially in this modern world.
 
cbsbyte appears to be pointing the Sheeple Laser at everyone.
Here's a thought: cbsbyte, you're following one of the same, narrow-minded paths that you claim to abhor so much, yours just happens to be newer. Stop thinking in black and white. It is possible that George Bush is not spawn of the Devil (I mean, come one! Give the Devil some credit!), and that, while he does some stupid/bad things, he's perfectly sincere. I for one think so.
 
The Army felt a need for more handguns in WWI in trench warfare resulting in the S&W and Colt M1917 being introduced. As far as military issued handguns sprouted legs and leaving with their owners I read somewhere that half the handguns issued during WWI were never turned in and probably most of them went home with Grandpa.

My Grandfather was a soldier in the US Army in WWI. One of the few things
he told me about his service, was that when they turned in their weapons
upon their return to the US, they were told they could keep their pistols,
if they had one. He told me he had one, a .45 automatic, but that he
didn't have any use for it, so he turned it in, along with his Springfield '03.

He missed a golden opportunity to donate it to the Jack Booted Thug Museum at NRA HQ!

And don't forget that Junior has Saddam's sidearm displayed in his office, in violation of DC's ban.

I'm confident that President Bush would never violate US laws. I'm sure Saddam's weapon has had the firing pin removed, the fire control group spot-welded together and the barrel plugged with cement. :evil:
 
CBSCYTE's theory is actually very sound, except that he missed some of the fine details:

Bush actually planned for his plane to malfunction and crash. He was working with a super-secret society of Illuminatt globalists, who actually picked up his crewmates. His crewmates were reprogrammed by the Illuminati and eventually caried out suicide missions of piloting human guided cruise missiles against the World Trade Center. This action ensured that GHWB's son GW would stay in office long enough to enslave the entire free world.

There fixed it for you.
 
During Desert Storm my Army reserve aviation unit was still equipped with 4" Colt and Smith&Wesson revolvers. In 1991 the Army hadn't completed the switch to 9mm in the reserves.
 
If you were an American, you'd be a johnny reb redneck - oh wait.. nevermind..

jackass.

Why do you have to resort to juvenile bigotry to get your point across
Do you lack the intelligence or is it the maturity- oh wait... Nevermind

Every damn time school lets out for the summer

This was an interesting historical anecdote thread, which has devolved into name-calling, conspiracy theories that defy belief, and thread veer that blows my silly little mind.

I'm closing this one, and thinking of kicking some folks off the board.
