You won’t recognize him, but it is Mel Gibson. Played Hal in the movie. About 5 minutes. I am also honored to have known him and his wife, through Joe Galloway. Ft. Benning is now Ft. Moore. My unit flew at the end of that engagement. – Chuck Oualline

After September 2026, I will no longer be hosting our entire website. This includes military news, the Silver Spur sites, nor our racing pages. After 29-years it will be time to close it all down. Be well. – Roger ‘Bear’ Young, Spur webmaster
