Just go ahead and apply to Delta. You'll have the CJO before you graduate UPT.

"Centralized Control, Centralized Execution" is the new hotness. Apparently you didn't get that memo......

Word to the wise. Get everything in writing. Even when it's yours it's not really yours. May turn out down the road "we were just joking". https://www.cbsnews.com/news/california-soldiers-forced-to-repay-enlistment-bonuses-la-times-report/ Adding insult to injury is having to pay back the full amount, including the 30% or so taxes that were taken at the time of payment.

Same here, and in over the decade since I retired I believe (right or wrong) that for us Tricare Prime was the way to go, especially with an autistic child...

Anyone have particular experience (good/bad) with the Tricare supplemental packages? I've looked at the MOAA and VFW plans but not sure which way to go. We are staying Prime for now while I get a bulging disc fixed and my wife has a torn rotator cuff repaired...after that we are thinking of going standard. Any feedback/examples appreciated.

That's what nightmares are made of...

Or any other AFI/pubs change, to include ones that would improve mission effectiveness or safety procedures. You know, the things we do when we fly, in the Air Force. Priorities.

Everyone has a different circumstance and the experience varies, but my Sq/CC experience had many similarities to CH. The enlisted assignment system has no input for CC's. The O side has a lot of input and there are options but they are not always ideal. But, the idea that every O-6 has the ability to make the changes that are being advocated is downright ridiculous. There are many decisions that are local and my goal has always been to make a difference where I could. I would like to think that I did that both at the Sq and Gp levels. I could be wrong but I will say that many people miss the forest for the trees. There is a lot of sport bitching and that's great but there is some goodness that occurs everyday. When a guy (CC) has placed his @ss on the line I think that it gets overlooked in many instances. How many folks post on here the positives they have experienced? There are a few. Not many. Critically think about the good, the bad and the ugly and then come back and lay it out. And by the way, for the previous poster, don't try to equate this to alcoholics, the only similarity is that they attend meetings. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums

How to you suck in people for shitty 365s when they are not bound by a commitment? I do agree to getting rid of the bonus and just increasing flight pay. Shit take away the bonus and take all the additional duties and hire some ass clown to do it for us. This would make my life better. I know a lot of people that would love to stay in but the queep of doing office work more than flying bothers them. The up or out mindset which causes people to "need career progression" really doesn't work for the guy who knows he will never see a command or a bird on his shoulder. Those who wish to get to command will usually work hard to get there anyway so let them. Break break I also know there is a proposition in works to contract out Phase 2 training. This isn't an AF initiative but an option to free up pilots. I think it's a horrible idea but it's an option. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

To be fair (and serious), there are young adults out there who have never seen or touched a condom in real life. In the other service, I had a Lance Corporal who, literally, didn't know what condoms were. We took action to educate him after he announced his wife's 3rd pregnancy in as many years...
