Los Angeles Times
Santa Clarita / Antelope Valley : Shuttle Landing Draws Big Crowd : Space: Fans and first-timers flock to witness what may be the last Columbia touchdown in Southern California until 1995.
November 02, 1993 SHARON MOESER SPECIAL TO THE TIMES
EDWARDS AIR FORCE BASE — It drops out of the sky like a brick. And in the best of conditions you might get to count your view of it in minutes rather than seconds.
But there they were, up before the sun, the fanatics and the first-timers. Equipped with blankets, chairs and cameras, about 35,000 people braved the desert chill Monday morning to watch the space shuttle Columbia return to Earth after a 14-day mission.
Several records were set during the mission, including the longest flight in the history of the shuttle program and the first animal dissection in space. Yet it was not those records that drew hordes of people to this air base on the edge of the Mojave Desert.
Instead it was an opportunity to see a Southern California shuttle landing, perhaps the last until 1995.
Like many people, Maureen Reeve said she, her husband and four children came to NASA's Dryden Flight Research Facility at Edwards AFB on Monday to watch Columbia land because it's "probably the last one for who knows how long."
Pauline Weiss and Will Poole have lived in a small town next to Edwards AFB for four years but never before took the time to watch an orbiter touch down. Monday morning they were among the privileged. With VIP passes secured from a relative who works at NASA, the couple stood on the roof of a Dryden building for a bird's-eye view of the 7:06 a.m. touchdown.
Spectators in RVs, some who had come from as far as Washington and Arizona, began arriving at Edwards AFB on Sunday. Early Monday thousands of cars streamed in, backing up traffic as far as a mile from the base's heaviest traveled west entrance gate.
Because of road construction near the shuttle viewing site, spectators were allowed access to NASA's hillside viewing area, an area normally reserved for invited guests.
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance," said Yorba Linda resident George Lawson, who watched his first shuttle landing with his wife from atop his RV. "If you see it a second time that's something the good Lord gives you."
Watching Columbia land brought tears to the eyes of Bob and Jan Baxter, Washington residents. "To think we can send people out like that and then bring them back to one little spot on Earth, it makes you feel good about where you live," Bob Baxter said.
Charles Wiggins and Toni Moore consider themselves groupies. They drove with two friends from Tucson, the third time they've done so. They left Sunday and headed back home Monday.
"People in space, it's something that's special to our generation," Moore said.

U.S. Troops to Syria; RNC Suspends Debate on NBC. Aired 2-2:30p ET
Aired October 30, 2015 - 14:00 ET
BALDWIN: Lieutenant Colonel, I'm curious, your perspective on, you know, Clarissa's point, talking about these fighters who the U.S. will be assisting. How integral our role will be over there moving forward.
LT. COL. SCOTT MANN (RET.), U.S. ARMY SPECIAL FORCES: Yes, look, thanks for having me, Brooke.
BALDWIN: Yes.
MANN: The first thing that I'd like to say is, I do think - I do think it's a step in the right direction to be working locally like this.
BALDWIN: OK.
MANN: That's what ISIS does. ISIS works locally. They work from the bottom up. And that's how we can have an effect as well. The other thing I want to point out is, special ops, especially like green berets, you know, they're advisers. And advising is a combat mission. And I think to call it anything other than combat is a misnomer. It means you train them -
BALDWIN: Say that again, advising is a combat mission.
MANN: Advising is a combat mission. And to characterize it as anything else, when we have troops out there working by, with and through indigenous forces like the Kurds and the Sunni Arabs is disingenuous. I've been an advisor my entire life and I can tell you these guys, when they do this, it is a very, very vulnerable mission because they do go out with them, they advise them and they assist them in combat. And to characterize it as anything other than that I think is a disservice to what the guys are doing. And, frankly, it sets the American people up for a failure because what they're doing is a very dangerous combat mission. It's necessary. And we need to be doing it but we need to call it what it is, Brooke.
BALDWIN: On that point, let me just toss to this piece of sound. This was our White House correspondent Jim Acosta sort of drilling down on that point moments ago with the White House spokesperson Josh Earnest. Here you go.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
JIM ACOSTA, CNN WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT: The question that the Americans people have, which is, this president, this White House, the officials here at this White House have repeatedly, over and over again, made it clear to the American people that there would be no combat role for U.S. troops fighting ISIS. That appears to be changing. Not only is there this announcement that you're talking about today, which you say they won't be involved in a combat role, but you're not ruling out the possibility that they may be involved in some sort of combat operation, but on the Iraq side, you have Pentagon official this week saying we're in combat. So I'm just - it would be great if we could just have a moment of clarity here and you could acknowledge that, yes, this mission is changing. It is not what it was said it was going to be at the onset of this. I mean I just think that -
JOSH EARNEST, WHITE HOUSE PRESS SECRETARY: To say that -
(CROSS TALK)
EARNEST: To say that, Jim, would only confuse the situation. The fact of the matter is, the mission that the commander-in-chief has given our military personnel in Iraq and now in Syria, is a train, advise and assist mission. And we have gone to great lengths to make clear that that is in no way diminishes the amount of risk that our men and women in uniform will be facing.
[14:10:03] We've also been quite clear that there actually have been situations where combat boots have been on the ground inside of Syria. We've been quit candid about that. The president ordered a mission involving U.S. military personnel putting boots on the ground inside of Syria to try to rescue American hostages that had been taken by ISIL. That occurred more than - more than a year ago.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
BALDWIN: You care to reiterate your point, colonel?
MANN: Yes, exactly. I mean you can hear it right there. It's just this type of work, where you're working with surrogate forces, it's dangerous work and it's necessary. It's what ISIS does. It's how they're so effective. They go local. In my book, "Game Changers," I talk about doing this in Afghanistan, in Iraq. It's a very effective way, less blood, less treasure to fight these guys. However, we need to be clear with the American people and with everyone that's watching this that this type of advisory work is combat. There are boots on the ground. And our men and women are at risk when they're doing this. And it's just the way it goes. It is a combat role.

SFOR INFORMER
Bridge over troubled waters
by Capt. Bente Ravn
First published in SFOR Informer #11, May 28, 1997
Mostar - The war in Bosnia and Hercegovina (BiH) caused much pain and destruction. Many people lost family, friends, and homes and some cities became divided. One of the best known of these is Mostar, the largest city in Hercegovina with 109,000 inhabitants. In 1522 Mostar became the headquarters of the Ottoman administration of Hercegovina. Many military missions against Venetian cities were launched from the city, which came under Austrian control from 1878-1918, and then became part of Yugoslavia. Today it is a part of BiH.
According to a pre-war consensus, Mostar’s population consisted of 20 % Bosnian-Serbs, 40 % Bosniacs and 40 % Bosnian-Croats. There are practically no longer any Bosnian-Serbs in the city, they are living in the mountains south and east of the city. Bosniacs, make up 55 % of the city’s inhabitants live east of the river. Bosnian-Croats make up the remaining 45 %, and live on the west side of the Neretva.
Mostar has a story to tell. It is the story of the Old Bridge, an elegant single span arch built over the river Neretva by the Ottoman Turks. Mostar is an old city, established in the 15th century when a small settlement began to form around an old Roman wooden bridge over the Neretva river, but the name Mostar comes from the old white limestone bridge Stari Most (most means bridge, and stari means old - hence Mostar) which was finished in 1566 after nine years construction for the Ottoman emperor Sultan Sleiman the Magnificent.
On November 9, 1993, during bitter civil war in the city, the bridge was shelled by a Bosnian Croat tank from Mt. Hum. One of its last roles had been to allow Muslim defenders of the "left bank" cross the river and take supplies to their supporters and the population that had remained there. It withstood many centuries, but it could not survive this concentrated effort to demolish it. After several direct hits, this magnificent piece of history crashed into the waters below.

Original Airdate: Nov 10, 1966
SPOCK: Might be interesting to see what they look like if I can locate where that voice is coming from. (McCoy and Scott enter)
MCCOY: Balok's message. It was heard all over the ship.
KIRK: Captain to crew. Those of you who have served for long on this vessel have encountered alien lifeforms. You know the greatest danger facing us is ourselves, an irrational fear of the unknown. But there's no such thing as the unknown, only things temporarily hidden, temporarily not understood. In most cases we have found that intelligence capable of a civilisation is capable of understanding peaceful gestures. Surely a lifeform advanced enough for space travel is advanced enough to eventually understand our motives. All decks stand by. Captain out. Ship to ship.
UHURA: Hailing frequencies open, sir.
KIRK: This is the Captain of the USS Enterprise. We came seeking friendship but we have no wish to trespass. To demonstrate our goodwill, our vessel will now return the way it came. We (humming noise) Lay in a course ahead, Mister Bailey.
BAILEY: What? A course?
SULU: Plotted and laid in, sir.
KIRK: Engage, warp factor one.
SULU: Warp factor. There's no response.
KIRK: Switch to impulse.
SULU: All engine systems show dead, and weapon systems.
SPOCK: Switching to screen. I believe I can get something visual.
BALOK [on viewscreen]: You are wasting time and effort. There is no escape. You have eight Earth minutes left.
SPOCK: I was curious to see how they appeared.
KIRK: Yes, of course you were.
BAILEY: I don't understand this. Spock's wasting time. Everybody else just sitting around. Somebody's got to do something.
MCCOY: Easy, Bailey.
BAILEY: What do they want from us? Let's find out what they want us to do.
KIRK: They want us to lose our heads.
BAILEY: We've only got eight minutes left.
SULU: Seven minutes and forty five seconds.
BAILEY: He's doing a countdown!
MCCOY: Practically end of watch.
BAILEY: What, are you all out of your minds? End of watch? It's the end of everything. What are you, robots? Wound-up toy soldiers? Don't you know when you're dying? Watch and regulations and orders What do they mean?
KIRK: Bailey, you're relieved! Escort him to his quarters, Doctor.
MCCOY: Let's go. (McCoy and Bailey leave)
KIRK: Ship to ship.
UHURA: Hailing frequencies open, sir.
KIRK: This is the Captain of the Enterprise speaking. It is the custom of Earth people to try and avoid misunderstanding whenever possible. We destroyed your space buoy as a simple act of self-preservation. When we attempted to move away from it, it emitted radiation harmful to our species. If you've examined our ship and its tapes, you know this to be true. (humming noise)
BALOK [on viewscreen]: You now have seven minutes left.
SULU: Four minutes, thirty seconds.
SCOTT: You have an annoying fascination for timepieces, Mister Sulu.

MCCOY: Your men are tired.
KIRK: Captain's quarters. Aren't you the one who always says a little suffering is good for the soul?
MCCOY: I never say that.
BAILEY [OC]: This is the Bridge. Prepare for simulated attack.
MCCOY: I'm especially worried about Bailey. Navigator's position's rough enough for a seasoned man.
KIRK: I think he'll cut it.
MCCOY: Oh? How so sure? Because you spotted something you liked in him, something familiar, like yourself say about, oh, eleven years ago?
BAILEY [OC]: On the double, deck five! Give me a green light.
KIRK: Why, Doctor, you've been reading your textbooks again?
MCCOY: I don't need textbooks to know you could've promoted him too fast. Listen to that voice.
BAILEY [OC]: Condition alert. Battle stations.

Dan Rather got it right George W. Bush DID go AWOL
byLefty Coaster
I always suspected something like this was the case. The new issue of Texas Monthly delves into the long neglected story of George W. Bush less than stellar military career in the Texas Air National Guard. The Texas Monthly lays out the surprisingly complicated mechanizations that led to the Junior Bush landing this plumb spot in the T.A.N.G.
That George W. got special treatment at a time when draftees were likely to end up slogging through the jungles of Viet Nam shouldn't come as too much of a surprise to anyone who knows how America routinely gives special treatment to the offspring of the 1%. What did come as a surprise was why George W. stopped flying and that he apparently did so with the tacit approval of his commanding officers in TANG, who who viewed Bush's move to Alabama to work on Winton "Red" Blount's campaign for the U.S. Senate as the the Junior Bush's effective departure from their unit and apparently from his 6 year obligation to the National Guard as well.

But the CBS documents that seem destined to haunt Rather are, and have always been, a red herring. The real story, assembled here for the first time in a single narrative, featuring new witnesses and never-reported details, is far more complex than what Rather and Mapes rushed onto the air in 2004. At the time, so much rancorous political gamesmanship surrounded Bush’s military history that it was impossible to report clearly (and Rather’s flawed report effectively ended further investigations). But with Bush out of office, this is no longer a problem.
While the Linkes were there, Bush’s former commanding officer, Lieutenant Colonel Jerry Killian, allegedly told them that Bush had stopped flying because he became afraid to land the plane. “He was mucking up bad, Killian told us,” Janet said to a Florida newspaper. (Jan Peter died in a car accident in 1973.)
But by the time Linke went public with her allegation, the press had already abandoned the Bush National Guard story for the Dan Rather controversy. Also ignored was some possible corroborating evidence...
What’s clear, however, is that Bush’s superiors made it unusually easy for him to quit flying and leave Houston. They first attempted to sign him up for a postal unit in Alabama that met once a month. (The commander of the outfit told Bush he couldn’t guarantee that the group would even exist in three months but added, “We’re glad to have you!”) When Bush was informed that he couldn’t fulfill his duty by doing that, he sent a letter requesting “equivalent duty” with the 187th Tactical Reconnaissance Group, at Dannelly Air Base, in Montgomery. The unit commander, in official memos, said Bush could start by attending two drills in September 1972. He didn’t show up for the drills.
When Bush lost his flight status, in August 1972, the official military protocol of the Texas Air National Guard was to open an internal investigation and review why the pilot didn’t show up for his physical. It says so on Bush’s own documents. That never happened.
Bush’s go-to expert on his military record, Albert Lloyd, said a report wasn’t necessary because Bush’s commanders knew he had stopped flying to go to work in Alabama—proof only that the Air National Guard blew off the rules when it came to Bush.
The Junior Bush wasn't so much disobeying orders as getting vague orders crafted to fit into his plans. Too bad so many other young Americans without Bush's Daddy's connections had their lives interrupted to be sent off to Viet Nam.

That, of course, didn't save Bush from dry holes, and the constant search for new investors.
In 1982, he decided to raise more money by going public. But first, in January 1982, he got a generous $1 million transfusion from Philip A. Uzielli, a New York investor who paid that much for 10 percent of Arbusto's far less valuable stock.
