Colonel, Sir, pass me s'more cod and pork scraps bud.


This is really too cool.
Via Ed Hollett, is this press release from the Canadian Air Force:
Comedian and political satirist Rick Mercer has accepted the appointment as Honorary Colonel of 12 Wing Shearwater's 423 (MH) Squadron, and will begin his tenure in this honorary appointment when he conducts his first official visit to the Maritime Helicopter Squadron in the spring.
Now that's a Maritime Helicopter squadron with class. It leaves me wondering if 443 (MH) Squadron on the west coast is thinking about Luba Goy as that unit's next Honorary Colonel.

Well done, Colonel! Bravo Zulu!

By the way, on a personal note, Rick, you should be aware that a helicopter - any helicopter - is approximately 10,000 parts moving along in close formation held together by a thing called a Jesus nut.
