The A-10 may now have all the supporters it needs to stay operational. As Stephen Losey of Air Force Times reports, Chuck Norris:
… the martial artist, action movie star and international icon of absurdly competent manliness, on Sunday posted a column on the website World Net Daily titled “Save the A-10 Thunderbolt!” In it, Norris argues that the massive firepower, reliability and ability to save troops’ lives through close-air support means “the A-10’s utility is needed now more than ever.”
It is said (and you would be a fool to doubt it) that reality exists because Chuck Norris allows it, so who is willing to argue with him when he says:
I just celebrated my 75th birthday, but I’m nowhere near ready to head to the scrapheap. Some things improve with age, and the A-10 has done just that, too.”
Seems like that ought to seal it.
