The Prime Directive

Fighter jets have the sizzle. Bombers bring the steak.  But cargo aircraft like the C-17 Globemaster can always take pride in doing a good day's work. What a ride it had been this year in Afghanistan. At war since 430 BC,  I survived by following Startrek's Prime Directive (google it)!

Survival by the Prime Directive

At war since 430 BC, Afghanistan tested every principle. Survival came through following an unexpected guide...

Star Trek's Prime Directive

"In the fictional universe of Star Trek, the Prime Directive (also known as 'Starfleet General Order 1', 'General Order 1', and the 'non-interference directive') is a guiding principle of Starfleet, prohibiting its members from interfering with the internal and natural development of alien civilizations."
