i wish to clarify who i am first. i am the owner of one bvm model (purchased here online) and many bvm products. i have a cai panther, hotspot,ad f16, pcm av8r, avonds f15, and maybe another i forgot about. so i dont want to be accused of being a bvm groupie when i ask why the bvm bomb sadam banner was removed. so here goes. why was the bvm bomb sadam banner removed? can we not be proud of our achievements. was it not the right thing to do. i know this is not a political forum and i do not wish it to be. but last time i watched the news, i do not believe it was a fresh scoop that we did bomb sadam and the world knows this. i did not see the banner as a political statement, just a proud american company that was proud of the usa. i wish we could go back to the times when that was an ok thing to be. just my 2 cents. barry
