Today's Moment to Remember
Picture
On this date, July 18, in 1914, the Aviation Section of the Signal Corps was born - the forerunner that eventually became today's United States Air Force.  Congress approved the creation of an Aviation Section with the U.S. Signal Corps of the U.S. Army for World War I.  And, then again, through World War II, the Army Air Corps served as a predecessor to our 5th military service - the United States Air Force.
Today's Slice of Americana

​During this week in 1992, "Achy Breaky Heart," a #1 country hit from Billy Ray Cyrus, classic mullet and all ;), peaks at #4 on the Billboard Pop charts.  Too funny ... Watch the video and you should get a chuckle ;)
