Finally on our way! We're in a KC-10 headed for McGuire AFB, NJ. It will be a 9 hr flight. It's 9:30am at takeoff. We'll land somewhere around midnight. Sam has his earplugs in for the nap, and is holding travel buddy "Bear" and clutching the patch one of the crew gave him. Behind him are some racks where the air crew will take a nap. They're like little bat caves. You'd look back and see a hand or foot sticking out from between the canvas flaps.
