A WO1 is a warrant officer one. It's a rank, similar to sergeant or
captain. Warrant officers are on a different rank structure than enlisted
or officers, though. We're a breed unto ourselves : -) I'm training to fly
the Bell OH-58D Kiowa Warrior (it's a military version of the Bell 407).
For those of you who may have seen it, it looks like a green news helicopter
with a ball on top of the rotor (it's a reconnaissance camera).
Anyway, I am going through flight school with a couple guys from the
Netherlands. They're in the RNLAF and ere to fly the CH-47 Chinook (that
crazy helicopter with 2 rotors on top). Good friends of mine.
And, Jeremy, yeah, I am very familiar with Deal's Gap and that whole area.
I've been through there PLENTY of times in my Miata (and previously, in my
Fiero GT that I recently sold).
And, uhhh, I can't wait to statr talking about my bike. I just need to
finish paying it off : -)
