Notes and commentary on things present, reflections on a career in naval aviation and serendipitous items as strike me at the moment…

Reflections

Reflections are a series of posts about - well, about life as encountered and savoured by your humble scribe. Many of the entries have a distinct theme of naval aviation because for the better part of a quarter century - that’s what YHS was involved in. As with anything else though, there are moments to stop, sniff the roses and treat the occasional bee sting that results. Some of that will be found here as well. Where to start? Save for those marked “Part I, etc.” jump in where you feel comfortable and enjoy.
