I found a nice song about the airforce
Off we go_____in-to the wild blue yon - der,
climb-ing high____ in-to the sun.___________
Here they come,____zoom-ing to meet our thun-der,
at 'em boys,______ give 'er the gun! (Give 'er the gun now!)
Down we dive,____ spout-ing our flame from un-der,
off with one____ hell-uv-a roar!
We live____ in fame_____or go down_____in flame.
Shout! Noth-ing-'ll stop the Ar-my Air Corps!___
Minds of men_____fash-ioned a crate of thun-der,
sent it high_____in-to the blue._____________
Hands of men______blast-ed the world a - sun - der;
how they lived______God on-ly knew! (God on-ly knew them!)
Souls of men____ dream-ing of skies to con-quer
gave us wings,______ev-er to soar!___________
With scouts____ be-fore____and bomb - ers ga-lore,
Shout! Noth-ing-'ll stop the Ar-my Air Corps!___
Off we go_____in-to the wild sky yon-der,
keep the wings___lev-el and true.____________
If you'd live_____to be a gray - haired won - der
keep the nose_____out of the blue! (Out of the blue, boy!)
Fly-ing men, guard-ing the na-tions bor-der,
we'll be there,______fol-lowed by more!______
In ech-e-lon ______ we car - ry one.
Shout! Noth-ing-'ll stop the Ar-my Air Corps!___

A lot of the aircraft in the last picture aren't actually Boeing's, I've seen that picture before, and really like it. The other ones are also good IMO.

| Quote: | ~An Ode to America~
We rarely get a chance to see another country's editorial about the USA.
Please read this excerpt from a Romanian Newspaper. The article was written by Mr. Cornel Nistorescu and published under the title "C"ntarea Americii (meaning "Ode To America") on September 24, 2002, in the Romanian newspaper Evenimentulzilei ("The Daily Event" or "News of the Day")
~ Why are Americans so united? They would not resemble one another even if you painted them all one color! They speak all the languages of the world and form an astonishing mixture of civilizations and religious beliefs.
Still, the American tragedy turned three hundred million people into a hand put on the heart.
Nobody rushed to accuse the White House, the army, and the secret services that they are only a bunch of losers. Nobody rushed to empty their bank accounts. Nobody rushed out onto the streets nearby to gape about. The Americans volunteered to donate blood and to give a helping hand.
After the first moments of panic, they raised their flag over the smoking ruins, putting on T-shirts, caps and ties in the colors of the national flag.
They placed flags on buildings and cars as if in every place and on every car a government official or the president was passing. On every occasion, they started singing their traditional song: "God Bless America!"
I watched the live broadcast and rerun after rerun for hours listening to the story of the guy who went down one hundred floors with a woman in a wheelchair without knowing who she was, or of the Californian hockey player, who gave his life fighting with the terrorists and prevented the plane from hitting a target that could have killed other hundreds or thousands of people.
How on earth were they able to respond united as one human being? Imperceptibly, with every word and musical note, the memory of some turned into a modern myth of tragic heroes.
And with every phone call, millions and millions of dollars were put in a collection aimed at rewarding not a man or a family, but a spirit, which no money can buy.
What on earth can unite the Americans in such a way? Their land? Their galloping history? Their economic Power? Money? I tried for hours to find an answer, humming songs and murmuring phrases with the risk of sounding commonplace.
I thought things over, but I reached only one conclusion...
Only freedom can work such miracles.

It may be from a film, but I think it would be a good idea for a lot of people to remember this. I personally think it's one of the best quotes I have ever heard, even if it is from a film.
