And I knew of a FRAG, but I was in the service. Of course, I never handled a grenade, but I knew people that did, or so they said. I enjoyed the theme quite a bit, especially HEAVENSTOBETSY, which sounds to me like it's the oldest of the bunch. MORASS crossing ABYSS is nice, and everyone likes to be reminded of being in Hawai'i with HILO. I do look forward to going to SEATAC some day, just so I can say I've been to that bit of crosswordese. Another I've not yet visited is Orly. I've landed and taken off from O'Hare numerous times, though. Never been in an honest-to-goodness BARCAR, though. In Japan, we sat in the nice section of the express from Tokyo to Kyoto and enjoyed some drinks, but that's not quite the same.
