Oceana owns compared to Edwards, which owns when compared to Yuma, which is better than Cherry Point.

Fair enough. I'm surprised we didn't have any incidents for as much as they were constantly flying. We were passengers, a lot. It was terrifying the first 5 times but now it's just nap time. A 53 did blow an engine in the other bird with us when we did some training. Rotated to the side quite a bit apparently. Waved off a couple times and slammed the ground a couple times. Rotors skipping on the ground, etc. They did have some contractors come and fix one of the ospreys on ship. Can't trust enlisted I guess

So to commemorate its first anniversary the Finnish Army online gallery published about 800 color photos from the years 1939-1945. They're accessible here: http://sa-kuva.fi/. Contents include John Cleese shelling bolsheviks,  a field synagogue,  Mannerheim smoking,  some other guy smoking, and  double flags.  In conclusion:
