Like you, I have always liked "GROPOS" a lot, despite the prevailing view that most fans harbor about it. If I have to go even further, I have always liked Warren Keffer, as well. I understand how his death furthered the story, but I have always thought that the series had suffered slightly from the lack of of a fighter pilot in the series in episodes like "Severed Dreams" and "No Surrender, No Retreat".
