Beaver, I'm not even an AR guy and I like that! On a separate note, with the Senate voting down the Gun Control Bill (54-56), I gotta plug this AK morale patch but even more so as I am its creator! NameTags4U has 'em available for only $3.50/each plus shipping.... 1"x2" AK-47 morale patch Cheers! M2

OK genius, then explain exactly what "Anti government militia mad over taxes, gun control, conspiracy theories of goveremment (sic) takeover and distrust President" actually means! You've got three events on the same day over 20 years. Not quite the conspiracy you're making it out to be!

Just a hint guys, from someone who's been retired for over seven years now (my how time flies!), in the old days everyone that was an NCO was called 'sergeant' until such time as they pinned on Chief, at which point they were called 'Chief.' Anyone who was enlisted and not an NCO was called 'airman.' It was simple and it worked...

Smokin', that's what I read as well. If Franklin does get screwed because of this, he will be remembered as being a man of integrity and that should mean more than a fourth star! And if that does happen, he still should remain as a case study in how real leadership works. I don't know the man but I have great respect for him after reading that letter. I don't care what rank he is, it showed a dedication to values that many just pay lip service to. It has restored my faith a little as well, but I also expect to see him pay a price for doing the right thing...

Continuing issue here in San Antonio. Should come with a mandatory life sentence, if you ask me. Just keep it in mind if you're in the Alamo City (or any other major metro area) on a weekend evening, stay to the far right as much as possible as most wrong-way drunk drivers will be in the far left lane (thinking it is the right lane in the opposite direction). My condolences to the family, friends and squadron.

Consider the source...

But not as fucked as he was. Still, it's not right.

WTF? Someone needs to be slapped very hard!

Well played!

Fuck that, it's still 35-10 in my book!

There probably wasn't enough room at the bottom for all the accolades he deserved, such as great friend to so many, a mentor to all met, a shining example of a leader in today's Air Force and obviously founder of BaseOps. I hope whoever took that photo paid proper respects to him.

I think he meant Walgreens. I get prescriptions from CVS all the time without any problems.

Anyone else notice/hear that USFK's website was TU'd for the past week?!?

Today would have been Rich's 40th birthday! We miss ya, brother!

What you do on your own time is no one else's business!

FIFY. And, on a different note...

"He led an 11-person team developing policy for 17 subordinate units and executing strategic communication plans through television, radio and print journalism for ACC leaders." A real warfighter! And a bit of a chub to boot!

Get a rope...

Fucking Russians, WTF?!? Some Not So Usual Photos

Fucking Estonians!

With Rick Perry (and hopefully Greg Abbott to follow) in the governor's mansion, chances are Texas will remain the conservative bastion it is despite the current shift in demographics for the near future. Plus, I think the trend will lost steam. I remember being stationed in Idaho in the mid-80s, there was a huge influx of Californians moving there and concerns they'd shift the political balance there. It apparently tapered off as the Gem State remains hardcore conservative. Whereas I am sure Wyoming will remain staunchly pro-gun for the long term, I don't see there being much incentive for Magpul and/or Colt to move there even given the former's close proximity. Texas offers much better opportunities for both companies, and a more stable environment. As for Obama, it doesn't surprise me. The man has an agenda, and doesn't care how much misinformation he passes as long to achieve it. It's pathetic.

A great read... A Mother's Journey to Bearing Arms
