    Seb's high class.
    He'll mow your grass.
    He'll kick your ass.
    And while his kidney stones pass,
    He'll piss in a glass!

        Even though it's a famous mission, I don't think most people really understand how dangerous it was and how much of an effect it had on the morale of the Japanese early in the war. The Japanese civilians truly thought their country was defended by divinity. And then here come a few Yanks to drop bombs on their emperor. Fucking rad.

        Thank you and RIP Major Griffin!

          A great generation of heroes, although they never like to be thought of as heroes. They will always have every ounce of my respect for jobs they did, and the time they endured.

          Godspeed Raider.
