Four jet fighters in formation just made three passes over my house in Brooklyn Heights. I thought we were "fighting them over there so we didn't have to fight them over here..."

1. Is it something for the Yankee fans?
Fly overs are a big thing at sports events.

6. Brooklyn Heights
My brother and sister in law lived in BH back in the 60s. I got my drivers license in '65. That day, I got in my folks' car (in Woodhaven, Queens) and drove down Atlantic Ave. all the way to the Heights to visit my brother. And it was even easy to find a parking space in front of their building on the corner of Hicks and Joralamen. It's the white building with the decorative bay window built onto the second floor corner.

You just happened to spark some strong memories.
