"Giddy" implies an immaturity and childish quality. "Pumped" in this context meant a more adult or mature reaction. In any event, the carrier captain had no business is rewriting the dispatch. Mark, these were fighter pilots, not chopper pilots. Also, I think the original reporter was smart enough to pick the right words. In a country, where the FIRST Amendment to the Constitution is Freedom of the Press, we do not need military censorship. Regards, Sal DiMarco, Jr.
