It's why my dad stayed behind. As an FA officer, Dad had a TS. Heading into Communist territory and getting the "you'll have to be the 'man of the house' since I can't go" speech had a litle bit of an impact on me. At every Christmas dinner since, that trip is subtitled "when Bro Doz went nutso". "Hey", as Dad points out, "He brought you all back alive, didn't he?"
