I'm sure most of those people in the class were concerned for you. And I know that is little comfort. Just know it is alright and you had an emotional response. You did nothing wrong. In grad school, a small class, we had someone cry - rather than continue with an assignment the prof spoke with the student and with all of us about stress. Best wishes and success.

Yep. One of our planes in 79 (Navy) dropped a bomb in a civilian backyard up in 29 palms. Made Johnny Carson. Small boom (25 pounder). We were doing a war game. I never got caught - but pissed off some pilots - I took whiteout and removed the 2 from 29 on the giant chart we had hanging up.
