SMOKE ON THE WIND
BONDS OF LOVE AND RESPECT
Feather in the Wind was in the Navy, stationed in SanDiego, California, when I was in SanFrancisco in the Air Force, ready to be shipped out to Chitose Air Base at Hokaido, Japan.
I had just finished pulling KP and looked forward to getting some shut-eye, when someone shined a flashlight in my eyes, and in a commanding voice said,” Get up, Airman! You’re on KP.”
I jumped out of the sack and there stood my brother. ‑He had hitch hiked all the way from SanDiego to SanFrancisco to see me. ‑We spent some real good quality time together for just a couple of days before I shipped out for a two and a half year tour of duty in Japan. ‑I would not see him again until my return stateside, but I never ever forgot the brotherly love that he showed me, and continues to do so. ‑Of all things, you would think that, being in the Air Force, I would have flown to Japan. ‑I went over to Japan on a Navy troop ship. ‑My duty on the ship? Yep, KP!
The moral of this story is that I had a light shined in my face that awakened me to a brotherly love, not only of Feather in the Wind, but that of The Way Shower, Jesus Christ. ‑I thank God for His love and light, and my brother Jim for his Flash Light.
God Bless You. ‑
