  1. Congratulations for this high honor.

    I guess the editors at the Voice didn’t think any descriptions of their valorous acts were worthy of print. This is a unit based in Mountain View. Ten distinguished flying crosses are awarded and all that is fit to print is one paragraph? Pathetic.

  2. Congratulations to these brave airmen and airwomen.

    But I guess they are not as brave, nor face as many dangers, as the garbage sorters who are covered with 17 paragraphs of the typical Voice dribble.
