Dear Major & Mark,
To define "giddy" and "pumped"....
"Giddy" implies an immaturity and childish quality. "Pumped" in this
context meant a more adult or mature reaction.
In any event, the carrier captain had no business is rewriting the
dispatch.
Mark, these were fighter pilots, not chopper pilots.
Also, I think the original reporter was smart enough to pick the
right words. In a country, where the FIRST Amendment to the Constitution is
Freedom of the Press, we do not need military censorship.
Regards,
Sal DiMarco, Jr.
