Sir or Ma'am, In reference to your blog of 18 September regarding the military fly-overs, we had night training of airborne troops parachuting onto our training areas. They are training so they can maintain proficiency in their combat skills. At any moment we could be called upon to perform our duties anywhere in the world. We are already performing these tasks in Iraq and Afghanistan. We are doing this training to also provide a free society the continued freedom to write these blogs and chatter amonsgt yourselves about how annoying the noise of freedom is.
