The most useful thing EVER

My Godfather/Snowboarding Yoda spent a minute or two in "Uncle Sugar's Air Force". Because of this I have my fair share of military accoutrements. I have a blood chit and a Vietnam era Army uniform, some dog tags an assortment of patches and some playing cards.

It's all really cool, but I'm not sure what to do with a lot of it. But then again, I have a lot of stuff that doesn't serve any purpose that isn't cool.

A while ago he sent me a helmet bag. (Picture thusly, although mine has all sorts of cool patches from all over the world on it.)



















At first I thought, what in the crud am I going to do with THIS??? But then, I figured out it was good not only for keeping my helmet safe after I finish flying my F-16s, it also made a handy little gym bag. Actually, it is about the perfect size for carrying just about everything everywhere. Who knew!?

It has been SO handy over the years, I asked Uncle Sugar for another. It arrives on Wednesday.

I just love America.
