I accidentally roasted my esc! The Benedini and receiver seem to be okay. Waiting on the new esc now. Slow shipping.

So Ralf, how does a fine German end up in the Bayou (of all places)?! Inquiring minds want to know. :crazy:

Doch ja, Ralph. Warum ist so ein Mann im Louisiana? Ist da ganz heiss, so schwitzt man immer.

Ralf,

Bayou and Teutonic, that's some pedigree! 5 tours of Vietnam, that's chewing on some serious dirt! My Father In Law served two and said it was almost more than he could take, and he's one tough guy. Marble Hill isn't very far from where we live in Missouri, and very close to where Jimster's home town of Cape Girardeau is. Next time over that way perhaps I'll hunt up SGM Shell's resting place and pay my respects.

We owe men like that so much! Utmost respect to them and all who have served! Thanks for sharing.

Regards,
Eric.
