           Those who embarrass themselves as believers   
   do the government a big favor, it helps a lot making   
   security easier.   
      
            I hitched a ride on a C-47 in 1947 from Randolph   
   Field to Godman Field with the commander of Godman,   
   that was about the time of the big headlines about   
   UFOs.       But the subject never came up.   
      
            Some people prefer to keep quite.
