My physics teacher in high school was a former SR-71 pilot and loved to tell brief stories of what is was like to fly over the Soviet Union in an SR-71.

Most of his stories very short and usually ended in "I can't tell you any more than that because it's classified". I could tell that there was so much he wanted to tell, but couldn't.

I saw his name mentioned in an article about an SR-71 that had to make an emergency landing in Norway, so I bet he'd have some really interesting things to say if it weren't mostly classified.
