and there will be some who will go to (try) see it.

There was only 16 squadrons of RAF fighters that used 100 octane during the BoB.
The Fw190A could not fly with the outer cannon removed.
There was no Fw190A-8s flying with the JGs in 1945.

I sat next to Ms. Carter one time on a plane to Los Angeles.

She was a very down to earth person and her two friends were nice too.

She had a small role in that Dukes of Hazzard movie and still looked great.

That was 10 years ago, though. Few people look the same at 63 as they did at 53.

Helen Mirren is over 70 now and she looks amazing for her age.
