Thanks, Dayton!Insurgents in Iraq have been using off-the-shelf software at least since last year to intercept video feeds from U.S. military Predator unmanned aircraft and intended for U.S. military personnel, enabling the enemy to monitor and stay ahead of American operations, The Wall Street Journal reported Thursday, Dec. 17.
The Predator drone program is managed from the Aeronautical Systems Center at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.Visca Catalunya Lliure -

This is the most demeaning thing you've ever said online, Tim. Do you realize that there are literally dozens of people in Dayton working in Dayton? Cashiers, box boy, forklift drivers, taxi drivers, security guards, retiree's etc. You make it seem like everyone who works in Dayton actually has a degree or got their computer degree from UD. Perhaps it's time you began to understand what exactly it is that the people who work in Dayton do for this country...Originally posted by Tim View PostComment

Thank heavens that it not managed at Hill. We've had enough problems lately.
I may be small, but I'm slow.
A veteran - whether active duty, retired, or national guard or reserve is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to, "The United States of America ", for an amount of "up to and including my life - it's an honor."Comment
