Following Lackland Wilford Hall medical board combat disability retirement as a USAF Navigator Bombardier I wandered into exploration gold miner start up investments in 2002 as gold began rise $250 to over $1900 in 2011. Starting to rise 25% since Jan low $1050 to $1330 again. Am now opening 4th new gold mine now this month in Sonora Mexico. First was reopening historic Comstock Lode in Virginia City NV, 2004, where Mark Twain was a young reporter name of Sam Clemens in 1861. Followed his brother the new Commonwealth Sec from MO to escape Lincoln’s military draft. Comstock financed Abe’s civil war and built San Francisco. Fascinating stories in gold mining. Among mine? One went to $15 million on my $130K investment in Gold Resources after 2002. .25 to $30 a share. Expect new Mexus Gold to do the same very soon. Don I Phillips, Captain USAF Retired, 210- 688-6900

We’re friendly to say hi but John created the very toxic financing that still winds down after I helped introduce people to the Plum mine on Raging Bull GSPG, originally, we discovered later, a Mar 2003 pure fake placer miner down on US 50. We raised about 7 million to purchase and began production up on the flat. Reached a fork in the road and I chose Winfield’s ’05 BoD to go fwd. Best I know was the sole big winner in the entire proceeding following Jolcover’s advice to buy down like mad to the really low .00015, 2007. But only had 11 million since I was still big in US Gold with Rob and Gold Resource had just IPOd at $1 and I was not going to cash out up just 400%. US Gold kept on from .11 to $7 and GORO .25 to $30 so I can’t complain either. Meantime it’s all in here and I’ve enjoyed the last 19 years myself. I’d gone from depressed 80’s .50 energy services like ENSCO left from HL Hunt’s boys developed horizontal drill, cashed out into dividends in Advanced Tobacco which local here held the nicotine replacement patents, smokeless cigs and the patch. Patents got sold to IVAX so no divs and I looked for a new plan and it became gold mining in 2003 after tip toes in in ’97. John may have gotten much wealthier riding out the 90’s I was not into but I know I influenced a lot more people into some wealth due simply yakkin on the net. And one still to come. Would have done well with IVAX for converting AVTH @ $19 sold to TEVA in ’05 for $25 and now $80 but nothing like the extra $40K into last chance in then .50 GORO in 2004 before a planned 2 for 1 split and the $1 IPO in March 2006. Got wealthy on not just a nice 4 bagger. 120 bagger instead. Sometimes things just work for the best if you look around careful like. 8

Nice enough to be still in the just wait mode but see what it is we’re waiting on. As close to auto pilot descent to ground control take over and land as I can imagine. All else I track are swings 3% general higher lows all year now. Making profitable trades as Frodo notes.
Family were cotton farmers but skilled carpenters on the Washita now Foss Lake , Butler bit N of US 66. Winter ’36 was floods across San Joaquin took out SP bridges trail end Bakersfield to Stockton and that’s what they got into. Lived in small travel trailers, SMALL 2 wheelers, until property in Oildale where Okies settled W of the Kern R. Began building the city. Earliest visions were wood oil derricks stretching to the hills. Not taken down just build a new one in the line. Youngest aunt Doris attended Standard High. Guess which “Standard’? Extreme opposite end of the Rockefellers see saw. Next year ’38 Gramps 1st cousin also in small cotton but attorney elected Governor . Usual? Tried twice but acquitted. Younger bother attorney general I met one time in the ’80s Ma took me by and heard the story. Is that odd? Nearest cousin head of the govt and still no reason to stay. As it turned ones who did took real cheap land and grew wealthy with WW2 boom times. Air Corps bases all over the map with Clinton Sherman, Burns Flat, became a SAC install. I’d visit grown up. Had emergency land once in Nav training. 8
BTW Bakersfield MEANS Baker’s Field Gramps’d explain. He and younger bro also were in paper off to MO to be lawyers but I think he met Gran teaching school out of Normal College. She’d walked to OK behind a wagon from Texas before statehood ’07.

Tweety Bird, yes. Sat knee knockers . 37 controlled crashes. Herb said I should have learned to fly with him at Half Moon first. Very intensive course and class was first to go onto T-38 Talon supersonic so wash out rate was above 50% over the full 13 months. Year later Joe Ventura at my 4 student table wandered into Nav school time I was ready to get wings. Been in OTS same time Jan-Mar ’62. Got to Phan Rang O Club in Oct ’66 and my IP Les Langus 1st Lt washed me out was Flight leader Major F-100s and his jaw dropped . “Phillips , what you doing here ” Swaggered up to bar and said “Les,.we’re the competition.” Outa Top Gun stuff! Met another of the 4 at Cam Rahn Bay , Dick Burdan F-4 pilot. 4th was a B-47 Nav and they were nicer to retreads upgrades but no idea if completed pilot school. Always said I know I saved a lot of lives and may have begun with my own.

No Don, a while back we spoke via PM on IHUB that Iwould like to donate to your favorite charity just as a token of my appreciation to you. I can’t find that message nor remember the organization. Thanks, John
- Only is DAV! Life savers with both USAF, VA and Social Security. Lived over year less than half AF basic pay and met SSA Admin Judge Mar ’78 with table of others us down from Abilene in San Antonio. Heard Bruce my advocate, show case details had also met USAF Disability bd retired me 50%, and Judge said decision for. Thanked him and walked out. Asked what that meant and he said you get all back SS disability since Dec 31 ’76 hospitalized, near 15 mo check one time. Several weeks she got one as a mom and me one as disabled and began to live normal again. Finally DAV worked up to 100% due unemployable. Reason? no good employment for 80% disabled rating global aerial navigators specialty dropping bombs! That a hoot? Don

Visited in the USAF hosp in early ’77. They care and were there themselves one time. As I said Bruce Gilliken rep’d until he passed. First thing you tell a newbie on the way out and hurt while in. Get thee to the DAV who care when Gvt don’t much. Crazy? Went to VA to have head cleaned put from severe ear infection flying days in ’80. Lost the ear but kept alive quick repair of R caritoid artery exposed pulsing about to go uncovered from the diseased bone. While there Audie Murphy Hosp got a visit from Asst Va Admin. Everet Alverez 1st N Viet POW. Ev was sports editor of High School paper where I wrote the humor col weekly ’54-’55. Read in paper he had been by VA but next time we met was on school steps for 50th in 2005. Told about another friend Joe Robertson killed mid air B-52’s 1st Arc Light msn strike from Guam in ’65. Had been Evs 1st msn also Tonkin Gulf incident in ’64. I’d met him and spoke of Ev we’d found was a POW, as Mather AFB Sqdn took over for my March AFB and we went home for alert duty there instead. 2 of us made it back and I had the easy route but sure did not become a Hosp Corp America VP by my time there. Had to figger out gold! I thank you will assist some in voice on a case up for real care. Don

First thing you do is become a Life member. Not real social as Am Legion or VFW but do meet and organize local and state for annual meet to pressure DC! Then the promises fail. They do all join together and Paralyzed Vets Am is the serious but smallest gp but while can belong to all? I choose DAV as best . Point , most amazing gp youg men I ever knew was initial Jr Officers 2nd Bomb Sqdn Heavy at March AFB CA Mar ’64. Most unmarried recent grads all over. All accads, AFROTC , Public Univ with 90 day OTS, as me, Notre Dame,. Citadel , TX A&M U Mass, etc and batched in apts sunny S Cal chased by chicks as prime marriage bait. Up came Viet Nam and scattered to winds to go fight and hope to return. Sudden none shooting and kind of empty while you grope for security again. Know was and will be ever so since Cain took on Abel and moved slightly East Of Eden. Don.

Well, if not so much fun and in turn profitable I might try somethin else but like a beautiful lady at least want to unnerstan the offer’s real before yes or no. Usually no but do get tempted so still alive . Once I understood the reasoning behind it what else is there? It’s GOLD, hey, odds better than 75% and you open a mine! Sucked you in sucker! Pass it on to some you like but most can go suck lemons or kick rocks. In and out but no gold ring cashed in only when you exit the go round & the music changes to slow for ticket sales. DIP

Interesting exchange, thanks. Universal solutions are generally universally bad. What purports to make sense is his silver coin ( he shows one )of any assigned value to digitize issued financial instruments and nutty 1st? is can’t be gold since gold is money. But when gold is seen as money usually silver is coin of the realm for trade. WJ Bryan’s Cross of Gold can’t be crucified on . I guess just takes a billionaire to think like one and file we peons in the spare cash drawer with Forever Stamps valued in bit silver. And 1st ‘mong my most interesting missions my 2nd after going N in AM on July 4 ’66 was in a Bird Dog directing 4 Navy F-4 S of Danang, Most lovely tgt can imagine . White columned French plantation mansion and they missed it all except the final 4th 500 # buried in the doorstep. Watched it fall true and was A DUD. Anchors away back to the big boat and hot mess with steak and beans . My top bunk had a rusty groaning French ceiling fan. Lubed with Wildroot Cream Oil and spun in a spiral pattern up the hootch walls. Swell interior decorate tip, ladies. War’s funny when you let it. 8
