  1. "Can we get a target description?" "Well, our IMINT can't get a clear shot at him, it's like he's the predator or something. However, HUMINT says he's the goofy asshole wearing the top 1/3 of a shiny silver poncho & makeup like an extra from Mad Max, so confidence is high that VID will be a cinch."
  2. Had a buddy take Marine Corps Command & Staff College a few years back. At that time you could sign up for it w/o being a Maj(s). It seemed on par with ours, difficulty-wise, with the emphasis on amphibious ops in joint warfare instead of an air focus (natch). Granted, he was a 100lb brain, but I took a look at some of the material & it seemed on a level with ACSC. On the downside, he didn't get IDE credit for it. Whether that was because he did it as a captain, or because it wasn't ACSC, I don't know, but that's a lot of practice bleeding for nothing.
  3. And I'm 6900% sure that's the whole story...
  4. She might like it (as the missus did), but anyone with a mild exposure to anything military will facepalm the screen at least half a dozen times (as I did) Edit: hot mike
  5. Olympus has Fallen is a giant steaming pile of shit. If you can make it past the first hour without hurling your popcorn at the screen in rage, you're a better man than I.
  6. Congrats. Chairfly. Study Hard. Good luck. UTFSF.
  7. Phil McCracken? Mike Hawk? Ted Striker?
  8. The Imp is signed on to the next X-Men flick: https://insidemovies.ew.com/2013/02/13/peter-dinklage-joining-x-men-days-of-future-past/
  9. And the oil starvation issue in inverted or negative g flight.
  10. This might explain why you cant find ammo anywhere: Homeland Security aims to buy 1.6 billion rounds of ammo https://www.denverpost.com/nationworld/ci_22594279/homeland-security-aims-buy-1-6-billion-rounds
  11. Here's a toast
  12. Unfukkingbelievable.
  13. The fact that she's "volunteered for multiple deployments" but never been downrange should answer that question. I wouldn't send a 12-year old girl to AFG either, the dearth of access to My Little Pony, Claire's & her YouTube channel would be too cruel...
  14. He took over as the IFF CC after his safety gig, probably didn't hurt either.
  15. "4 hours ago mollyclune Usually when people are talking about entertainment groups and they say "talent", they mean the people who sing and dance and play. And do you know how few people in the AF actually work on aircraft? There are so many jobs that are completely grounded but equally as important! Also...Just a little FYI for you...the Air Force's mission is to fly, fight, and win in air, space, and cyberspace." OH SNAP! She done told you, son!
  16. The bone has been getting its proverbial dick kicked in doing the heavy lifting in SWA for 12 years straight & it's MX capable rates are suffering more than usual. The BUFF has been out of the fight since '05-ish. That may have something to do with it.
  17. Thread revival: Today, the keeper of the bosoms in my household asked an interesting question & one I had not thought of: Do Retirees participate in Mustache March? Any greybeards here want to chime in?
  18. If you do a JOP to make it legal, (then save the date fir the big ceremony) you'll get dependent status & benefits, he'll get more $$. Also, he won't have to live in the dorms at Laughlin, which is reason enough. As far as IFS, impress upon him that he needs to tell his Flight Commander immediately about the wedding date, so s/he can work around it.
  19. What. The. Piss. Did I just see? I swear to jeebus, if you replaced all the TIB references with the JV Cheerleading team or a Glee fan club for Tweens, that video would have had the exact same timbre. I don't even want to know how much poop you had to wade through to find that little corn nugget, but my god have mercy on your soul. Edit: spelling
  20. they're actually measured in units of NBh (Nav Butthurt) on a scale of 1 (the pilot let me fly today!) to 10 (i'll never be a general)
  21. I'm pretty sure he's over on the AF Times forums trading war stories about his inspirational moments mentoring cadets at a Tops in Blue concert.
  22. Havent seen a RPA drop on assignment night since about 2010. However, rated dudes can still get pulled into the abyss, so in that sense, you could go preds after UPT, just not immediately after. However, comma, nothing stays constant. Edit: I didn't not misunderstand the un-double negative between the post & it's title.
  23. Sounds like standard OPR building to me.
  24. If continuous bomber presence is on the chopping block with sequestration, we'll be lucky to even talk about chrome dome with a crusty old sim console operator before our quarterly bean hack sim.
