My first experience with the A10 Thunderbolt

I remember my first encounter with an A10. I had just gotten to my first base and honestly didn't know very much about the planes, but I was already used to the noise of them flying overhead.

One day, I was outside just minding my own business working in the heat, when I heard a noise that I'll never forget.

BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRT

I look over at my buddy wide eyed, and exclaim, "What in the mother fuck what that!?" "Oh, that's the gun on the A10, they're doing live practice fire," he replied.

Every time I've heard that noise since, I can't help but smile.

Now the military is trying to phase out the A10, which is completely unbelievable. Well I say fuck the Bald Eagle's call, BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRT is the sound of freedom. You can't simply just get rid of the most awe inspiring freedom dispenser ever known to man. Seriously, they should've called this gun with wings the A10 Scrote Shriveler.

Let us not say "Let freedom ring," but "Let freedom rain" instead.

Long Live the A10.
