  1. EDIT - Nevermind As far as APO I volunteered a lot when I was at Ramstein at their post office. I left right when they started taking 2 day weekends (sun & mon I believe). Those guys were slammed every day, and it was worse Oct - Feb obviously. I used shipitapo dot com and it was ok, if a little expensive and slow.
  2. Was not aware that was optional.
  3. Which one?
  4. "I totally agree that their findings about you were wrong. I'll send a letter to the bosses on your behalf, and here's a LOR so you can...fight it." "Oh, you didn't like the LOR? Fine, you're fired since I can't trust you anymore." EDIT: Clarity... stupidity actually.
  5. Totally not stealing our technology
  6. Guess she didn't knock out that Resiliency CBT Police: Wife Stages Shooting To Avoid Air Force Deployment https://houston.cbslocal.com/2012/09/14/police-wife-stages-shooting-to-avoid-deployment/
  7. Nice. When I got guys PTDY for a week multiple times a year to do multiple funerals for folks who didn't retire, or serve even close to a decade, or did their draft time in Germany, it seems a bit strange. The broad from "who wants to marry a millionare" gets a military funeral if she/family so desires. Yea.. fck the vets is totally what I was saying. Also, happened during Bush II's presidency. Obama is clear, though I think the Congress might have been Democrat at the time. EDIT: Political Clarity
  8. Wait.. what? I've got 15% monthly kicking over into that thing, and maxing out my IRA this year. For the first time ever actually, kinda proud. NM - 15% is just over 1/2 the allowed limit. For those not interested in google - https://www.tsp.gov/planparticipation/eligibility/contributionLimits.shtml
  9. Can we stop making same deals for everyone that spent a month in uniform for those that served 20? My Amn on the honor guard lost their minds when Congress decided ALL vets can have a military funeral.
  10. He didn't get his CBT's done... an appropriate response to his failures.
  11. 2 techniques - 1) Had Amn ask me why they had to do something when aircrew didn't. Appropriate response is "Shut the fck up, I own you, not them." 2) When I was in Korea they were pushing no headphones while running on the street hard. We were doing group runs w/ the DO Maj "leading" us. We pull around the corner and this dude rolls by on the street in PT gear with headphones in and we point it out. Maj says, "He's a pilot" and we roll on. However, this confirmed the Maj was a douch to the rest of the Sq, but we already suspected.
  12. Copy, like the ones we do for Unit Climate Assesments. I'm surprised it didn't show her winning by a landslide. Also, any line on who the major funders are?
  13. So, dumb question from a non-pilot: Do you have to retrain in each of these airframes separately once they've been upgraded or is it a simple familiarization flight? Also how long does that take? There's quite a few different block models ID'd for the upgrade. Thnx
  14. I thought we were taking 100 year chunks and measuring body count...
  15. Really? I would have thought all the Muslim.. I mean Moor conquests and Crusades would have been bigger. But then again.. China has always had a lot of people to kill.
  16. Wife's still have O1 rank on 'em. Apparenlty unless you're addressing the unwashed masses (as a O6+), they're not required. Once again.. I just want patches back.
  17. Copy, I'll be screaming across a chow hall at the OG/CC for having his FDU sleeves around his elbows and morale patch. Thanks for clearing up who's in the wrong on this one.
  18. For the rest of us who don't know who this Lt Col is - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dave_Grossman_%28author%29 Hope he comes to my location. Don't know why his books aren't on the CSAF Reading List.
  19. In the rare, rare cases. Usually it's to reward some General's aide (Folgeso... I can't finish it) or to keep that fire-walled volunteer of the year moving up to MSgt so they can tell you how to wear a reflective belt correctly. On a plus side I did have a Chief 1Sgt who was STEP'd to Master, rode a Harley, cursed, smoked and kicked ass. She was great.
  20. Wonder where the politics are worse AD or Guard. See/hear this sort of nonsense all the time when they come visit.
  21. NDA's are usually 99 years, so I think he came in a little early.
  22. According to Fox - "Police have determined that three people were struck by whole bullets -- two of which were removed from victims at the hospital -- and the rest were grazed "by fragments of some sort," Kelly said." https://www.foxnews.com/us/2012/08/25/nypd-shooting-bystander-victims-hit-by-police-gunfire/ EDIT - decided to cite my source.
  23. You'd think so, but often they just add'l duty it out to each shop and have the 3D0 do "inspections" on everyone's files and make sure they're in line with the file plan. God I wish I didn't know all this file plan shit...
  24. Tried to explain what the Orderly Rooms were like to a new Lt. He couldn't wrap his head about not having to constantly be at finance/MPF for stuff.
