Maybe not, they would be the right age to be running the agency and Eliza Dushku could easily work as an agent in their stead.
The universe is run by the complex interweaving of three elements. Energy, matter, and enlightened self-interest.

:thumbsup:  interesting back story to the guy and the book https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chickenhawk_(book)

It is a brilliant book about the war (and helicopters!)... In the early part of his flying instruction he is all over the place trying to keep the aircraft stationary. His instructor says, "It's true what they say about you, you are a natural!". He replies, "What do you mean, I was all over the field!". Instructor replies, "we just have to practice in smaller and smaller fields".

I've read all his other books too about his life after the war and his science fiction. Fascinating stuff...

But if you just want a brilliant book about the airborne cavalry, Vietnam and how a Huey works then Chickenhawk is well worth it... Thumbs:

Just watched Soul... Sensational... worthy:

Quote from: IMDB
Pixar has done it again! This film is nothing short of amazing. The animation, story, and voice cast are all stunning. Pixar has continually upped their game and Soul is another masterpiece they can add to their library of artwork. I enjoyed every magical moment of this film.

Oh, and be sure to have tissues handy when you watch! Like most Pixar films, Soul will pull at your heartstrings.
