It was seven weeks long when I went in the late 90's. But it had the same impact on me. I showed up a career Air Force officer and left with a goal of finding a different career path. My SOS flight commander was a C-141 nav who told us the first day that he took the SOS job to guarantee ACSC in residence. Brilliant. That's exactly the kind of guy I want mentoring young CGOs. SOS was my first and last experience with PME. I left the active duty a year later and joined the ANG. A GREAT move. Spent my career in the cockpit and made O-5 without anymore PME or a masters degree.

Jeez. I can't believe how stupid the AF really is. 8 WEEKS? My experience at SOS was ridiculous. The flight commanders and leadership were either totally out to lunch/incompetent or just complete idiots/ass lickers. My favorite was a briefing by a WSO who thought he was a brain surgeon telling us how the brain works. WTF? I can't tell you how bad I hated that place. I wanted to throw up during the graduation ceremony, and I am 100% sure I was the first person to leave from my class because I literally ran to my car in service dress after we were released and sped out of there. I didn't bother to change clothes until I was 4 hours away at a gas station because I wanted to put as much distance between me and that place as possible. I actually didn't mind the AF up until SOS but my experience there is actually what has started to make me think that I don't want to stay in once my commitment is up. I feel really sorry for those who have to go there for 8 WEEKS. May God have mercy on your souls.

Keo. 6/10. Because I'm in getting paid to crew rest in ######ing Cypress, on the beach, at a bitchin' hotel.

One (1) solitary lone soldier year old Miller Lite at the bottom of my ski boat's cooler. Found it after a three hour boat ride under an 18 pack of kid's juice boxes, some 6 oz Walmart cokes and two big bags of ice. Was so cold it burnt my hand. 10/10

Sometimes I push buttons. In this particular case, I am 100% serious as there are really ######ing stupid people who would use the excuse "but I read it on..." to justify why they defrauded the government. To me, it is worth it to make sure I have a legit weigh-in once every three or so years...to others it may not matter so much, but they should always be careful of what they imply and how the grade A morons of the world will see it.

Yuengling Lager. 7/10: It was the only beer in the vault fridge.
