  • Lift-Ticket
rdfs:comment
  • Lift-Ticket was one of those guys who joined the Army to get out of his home town. The big difference with Lift-Ticket was that he scored so high on the aptitude test that he qualified for West Point Prep O.C.S. and Flight Warrant Officer School. Nobody in Lawton, OK ever suspected he was that smart. Apparently, neither did Lift-Ticket, since he opted for Flight Warrant school over the others thinking that it was the only one that offered training applicable to civilian employment.

"Getting into a target area is comparatively easy: You wait until dark and get sneaky. Now, getting out once some caps have been popped and a can of firefight's been opened -- well, that's another story. All you can do is squat on the landing zone and hope that whoever's driving the extraction chopper is skillful, persistent, lucky and bulletproof. Lift-Ticket satisfies the first three requirements...and he's working on the fourth!"
