Nope. All our foreign assignments were across the other big pond.

But mostly the foreign pilots came to the US to train with my Dad --- from everywhere. And it was facinating for me because I always ended up at formal functions sitting with the lesser ranking pilots (aka younger!) and learning about where they came from and how they viewed Americans. Naturally, they were far more open with me (a teenager) than in conversations with their commander present.

But they were also very aware that the commander's daughter was under age so I never saw many of them aside from formal occassions, unless they hppened to be at the base pool.


Only an open mind and open heart can be filled with life.
