If you were not at Jordan-Hare Stadium Saturday afternoon/evening then there is no way I can express exactly how loud the environment was. I keep going back in memory to 1989 when Auburn first welcomed Alabama to the plains and, to me at least, Saturday night was louder. And I could try and convey to you, TET members, a loudness that words cannot do justice yet those words, if I could find them, would fail.
It was Veteran’s Day and, while I only served in the Air National Guard for four years as part of the 187th Tactical Reconnaissance Division as a new 1st Lt on the RF-4 C aircraft we, nonetheless, felt as if we were making a difference.
