Summary: Off we go, into the wild blue yonder! PLUS A SPECIAL BONUS! "War Is A Racket" by Major General Smedley Darlington Butler.  Little Jack Horner: The Men and Women of America's Armed Forces Bad Luck Go Away Sign: The Transportation Safety Administration BONUS: One of the great heroes of the Marine Corps is Major General Smedley Darlington Butler who, when he was a young officer during the early part of the last century, was one of only 19 men in history to win TWO medals of honor. General Butler, who retired in 1931 and died in 1940, wrote a remarkable book he published in the early 1930s called "War Is A Racket." It's short for a book and a little dated but ultimately timeless and very much worth reading. Semper Fi.
