Today's online Washington Post —

"In 1973, Mr. Pike was credited with single-handedly grounding
a $14 million program that awarded extra pay for flight duty to
generals and admirals who never piloted anything more
aerodynamic than a desk at the Pentagon.

Standing on the floor of the House with his arms outstretched
like a plane in flight, Mr. Pike used mockery to plead his case."
