“If everyone is thinking alike, someone isn’t thinking. —George S. Patton Jr.”
William F. Sine, Guardian Angel: Life and Death Adventures with Pararescue, the World's Most Powerful Commando Rescue Force

“PJs use parachuting skills to raid into enemy territory to rescue and save lives; army rangers parachute onto the battle field to kill enemy soldiers and capture ground, while a Green Beret will infiltrate a remote, hostile area to teach the local populace how to fight and defend themselves against an enemy. Recon marines can sneak into enemy territory and learn all their secrets. SEALs are small direct-action-oriented teams that can infiltrate areas by sea air, or land to accomplish their objectives, such as capturing or destroying high value targets. Air force combat controllers call in airstrikes, help seize enemy airfields, and use their air traffic control skills to orchestrate everything from large-scale aerial invasions to small insertions of American planes and soldiers. All of these elite units consider themselves exclusive brotherhoods. Members of these outfits live at the most dangerous extreme of human experience and entrust their lives to each other. They focus on a common mission and share unique experiences of adventure and danger.”
William F. Sine, Guardian Angel: Life and Death Adventures with Pararescue, the World's Most Powerful Commando Rescue Force

“If you would not be forgotten as soon as you are dead, either write something worth reading or do things worth writing. —Benjamin Franklin”
