He Came, He Saw, He Lamvong'd

Admiral William J. Fallon, Commander, Pacific Command just left this morning after a short visit to Laos.

Yours truly was airport officer (again) for the C-40 (military designation for a 737) and the C-12 (smaller Beechcraft) that came in.

At the 11th hour, your humble scribe was also cast into the role of overall control officer, so I wore many hats (and had to change those hats often as they became soaked in sweat).

The CINCPAC travels with many staff, and even more crew. Lots of moving parts, but in the end, I think it all worked out.

More later, but now it's time for lunch.
