In addition, Pan Am assigns up to 20 jets a month to the U.S. Military Airlift Command for South Viet Nam duty- at less than half the rates it would receive for similar commercial service.

...blackened silver coins that occasionally washed ashore. None of them, he noted, were dated later than 1715. Wagner began ransacking libraries for data on the 1715 catastrophe. He managed to obtain 3,000 feet of microfilmed documents from Seville archives, found details of the Silver Plate fleet's cargo manifestoes plus testimony from the official investigation of the wreck...
