And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two?

The Man. He retired near my home town of Grass Valley, CA. That's close in proximity to Beale AFB, where Chuck could go to and fly anything he'd like to, including the SR-71 in it's day. The stories I could tell you about "The General". He was quite a guy. Completely unpretentious.
I think it interesting you describe him as unpretentious. I met him three times, once at a formal dinner. From his mannerisms I describe him as a shameful lout.
