i thiought he may have been like my CO. The man had so much shrapnel in his backside from Vietnam that he couldnt go thru a scanner at the airport,pre 9/11!
Same here, which is why I gave up flying and airports in the 1980s.
The steel rod and screws in my leg set off metal detectors everywhere. Interestingly, if you go into the Pulaski County Court House and pass through the detector there and set it off, if you keep on walking the security guards won't do a thing to stop you. Neither did the 20-odd cops standing around watching.
After 25 years of this crap, I've gotten rather pissy about the stupid detectors. The Little Rock city court house has guard who will body-slam you to a halt two inches after the detector goes off. Which would sound very secure, except the detectors only scan the upper half of your body. You could wear some big flappy homeboy jive pants and jam an AK-47 down each leg and clank right on through.
