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 tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
That is an HU-16, well that's what it was called when I was in the Coast Guard. R1820s and a lot of noise. I thought it would make a great camper. One day I was sitting in the back while they did the mag check before taking off and thinking about it I realized that I could NOT afford the gas that had been burnt so far and I let the flying camper dream go back to it's box...
Grumman made a 14' runabout. Cute little things with good seating for six, a dash board, and windscreen. The Dam Bar at Page, AZ has one on display. It was the project manager's personal boat when the damage at Glen Canyon was being built.
