Subject: JAG ep Flashback.....


Was listening to the radio today and heard an interview with Shane Osborn - the Navy pilot whose spy plane was shot at and he landed successfully in China. This was the real-life story that the two-part episode Dog Robber was based on.

I never really knew that the episode was based on a real story, so to hear him introduced as that was a very cool surprise! Osborn is running for Senate in Nebraska. Thought some of you might want to read about him. Here's the link.
