Since this is the 31st, Sweetwater Reporters article is a little(week) behind. As I've said in the past GOD BLESS THESE WOMEN,(alive and deceases). They have been in my heart, in my soul and on my mind 'all' my life, even though I've never met a one of them. And yes Congress is voting on giving them The Congressional-Medal-Of-Honor, which they definately deserve!!!

Mr. Bob Gasche is almost correct. The unit was called Women's Army Service Pilots(W.A.S.P.'S). They did get Air Force blue uniforms eventually, and since the Government did 'not' let women serve on the front lines or in actual combat, they did a great service to support the men, ferrying planes over 60 million miles, and dragging practice drones for the men to target practice at with 'live' ammo. If any of you people read/see this, there is A Museum at Avenger Field, Sweetwater,Texas everyone should visit. Again GOD bless these women!!

Daily Horoscope for December 24

Leo

Perhaps it's the fact that it's Christmas Eve and everyone is busy, but you can't help feeling that you're walking on eggshells around certain people. Their emotions are very close to the surface and could erupt at a moment's notice, perhaps in a storm of tears or a fit of pique. Calm them down and ask if you can do anything to help.
