You're never too young, might be a good caption. It took me awhile to grasp this photo, but maybe I am getting a little old.

It is my understanding, based on a first hand account from my father, that something similar to this happened one day along the Elk River after he had hoisted me up on his shoulders and took me to the pasture to get the cows.

                                                   Kim Phúc - 1972

                        (http://listverse.files.wordpress.com/2011/05/5292674791_a5a1092660.jpg?w=550&h=366)

I bet a few of us remember this picture.  This Pulitzer Prize photograph was taken by Nick Út on June 8, 1972, and became one of the most haunting images of the Vietnam War.  The tragic event occurred when a South Vietnamese Air Force pilot mistook a group for enemy soldiers and dropped a napalm bomb on Trang Bang.  The image shows nine year old Kim Phúc with her clothes burned off, running amid the chaos.  The bombing killed two of Kim's cousins and two other villagers.  After taking the photograph, Nick Út took Kim and the other injured children to Barsky Hospital, in Saigon.  Her burns were so severe that she almost did not survive.  After a 14-month hospital stay, and 17 surgical procedures, she was able to return home.  When Kim grew up she studied medicine, but was removed from the university and used as a propaganda symbol by the communists.  Kim requested, and was eventually granted permission, to move to Cuba to study pharmacy, where she would meet her future husband.  During a vacation back from Moscow with her husband in 1992, their plane stopped over in Newfoundland, Canada.  As it was re-fuelling they walked off the plane and defected to the Canadian government.  The two now live in Ajax, Ontario, Canada, and have two children.

Interesting Fact:  In 1997, Kim established the Kim Phuc Foundation, in the US, with the aim of providing medical and psychological assistance to child victims of war.  Other foundations were set up later, and called the Kim Phuc Foundation International. Kim also tours the world giving speeches at churches and schools, talking about her story.

On the right is Samson. At 282 pounds he is billed as the world's second largest dog. I would hate to foot his food bill or clean up after him. He is not yet full grown and has his own love seat inside the owner's house in Wyberton, England.

This is the Pregnant Guppy, an aircraft manufactured in limited quantities beginning in 1962. These cargo planes were actually expanded Boeing 377 Stratocruisers, a passenger plane. Several were built.

Other separately made versions were the Guppy and Super Guppy.

NASA, today, operates a follow on Super Guppy.
