[MilCom] Blue Angels

In the past they have asked a former team member back, but that only 
works if their current job or squadron lets them go.  I would think last 
years #5 is on his way to Fl right now & the current 5 will go to 6 
where he flew last year.  May 23 they are scheduled to fly at The Naval 
Academy, that could be when we see them again, sure hope so.  Just my 
thoughts.
