Used to be the Municipal Airport before they moved to Dannelly Field

Yes, it was the city's airport before it was moved to Dannelly. I did not go back that far with you. I do not know exactly how many of the graves are British, I just read somewhere that there 50 or foreign aviators buried and they did not list all countries. Maxwell also trained US pilots in the fine art of the B-24

A majority drink beer, (I like a good red), never cooked a shrimp (called prawns here) on my BBQ, and the only time I go walkabout in the bush is if I am pig shooting with my Win 44 mag or Rem.243.

I guess that is along the same as thinking that all Southerns marry their cousins, have 42 dogs under the front porch and eat grits. Well, we do eat grits, I like them doused in Tabasco. I prefer red beers also, may fav is an amber made on the North Shore of Lake Pontchartrain in LA by the Abita Brewing Company. Best I can figure, Aussie are a lot like us, only ya'll didn't have a bit of a row with the Crown like we did.

Were you at one of the schools at Maxwell?

another fan from Tuscaloosa who loved watching it. Not you is it Jeff?

Nope that's not me

Grits. Actually the question should have been phrased, "What are "Grits.""

Grits are a good breakfast food that has been maligned by our brothers to the north for many years. It is ground up hominey corn, boiled and simmered to a creamy subsistance. I add all manner of tastes to mine from a firey cajun sauce, to garlic, cheese, and other spices. I usually add scrambled eggs and bacon to it and eat all of it from a bowl, but must do not. Grits are not good left over, but they can be eaten. It is the substitute in the South for potatoes for breakfast.
