Have had that freq dialed in with no hits since last week, while 320.6 (an
AR frq used later in the Spring when 320.9 was more or less abandoned) has
been very busy.

Interesting comment by Langley controllers to a Navy COD landing at
Langley AFB:

"Be aware there is a Marine Corp Pilot on board, and we are going to foam
the runway down for you now, sir.".
	"I think I can make the runway, thanks alot guys"
"No problem sir, we'll have some Navy personnel show you how if you like"

That was almost as bad as a USN pilot telling Oceana: "have 3-souls
onboard and one Marine."
