No use in suing, any proceeds from the lawsuit would only be applied toward increasing the stipends of AFROTC students... Cheers! M2

What are some lesser known AFSCs and their niches?
Actually, most of that info is from official USAF sources and is about as detailed as you are going to find. Outside of that, I would suggest try searching for career field info on AFPC's web site for the AFSC you are interested in...there used to be specific guides for each, but I have no idea where that info is nowadays... Cheers! M2

Classic - PA F*cks Up Again!
Anyone seen the new Airman magazine, the one titled 'The Air Force at 60'? Look at page 6, at top. Verbatim... Yep, three l's in "Billy"...I guess it's not like he is well-known in USAF history! And page 11... The correct spelling of Gen McAuliffe's name is with a capital A. He is attributed for the well-known reply of “Nuts” at Bastogne. Considering that those who put this little tribute together probably scored MSMs for their efforts, you'd think they would have spent a little time proofreading the damn thing! I found both of these errors within the first minute of looking through it. Cheers! M2

C-5 Reserve Units
So you posted and waited 21 days for info that a caveman could find in 0.69 seconds using Google? Fucking magic indeed! And instead of rumors, why don't you call the Wing and see what really is going on, then enlighten us all here. Cheers! M2

C-5 Reserve Units
Just call them...(210) 925-7437 I am just up the hill from the 433 AW, and know a couple of guys down there. They picked up the FTU mission in addition to the usual heavy hauling, so I am not sure about any downsizing... Fun fact, the designers of the C-5 did the math and figured it could hold approximately 25,844,746 pin pong balls! Cheers! M2

Date of Rank
For me it was two years after my DOR... Cheers! M2

Date of Rank
Normally, it is the date of your last promotion. But for new accessions, it depends on how you were commissioned. Unless things have changed since I was commissioned a hundred or so years ago, OTS and USAFA guys DOR is they day they are commissioned, as that is their first day of active duty as an officer. However, AFROTC commissionees are delayed coming on AD, so the DOR was split between the day they were commissioned and their first day of AD. That may have changed, but unless you are in a POW camp, what does DOR really matter anyway, especially when you are a Lt? Cheers! M2

- Spam
As one of the moderators on here, we all do our best to remove any spam as soon as we can can. But I have to admit I had a spam-related chuckle this afternoon worth sharing... Some dope spammer posted a thread along the lines of "should I exercise or use diet pills" complete with links to the pills they were pushing. The post even had a person's name at the bottom, and included the "sorry if this is in the wrong forum" comment to try and make it look genuine. But as that poster just signed up here, had a grand total of 1 post, and there was no mention of the USAF or even the military, it was obviously spam. Maybe not as obvious as the porn spam we get, but pretty easily ID'd. Well, almost obvious, I guess, as one unnamed individual on here did give a honest, sincere and somewhat lengthy reply of "diet and exercise are better than pills;" which could only leave me to believe that he didn't realize that the original post was spam. Said thread has since been schwacked, but I had to thank that person (and you know who you are) for giving me a good laugh on this dreary afternoon. Cheers! M2- Issued Glocks?
- Wedding Mess Dress Etiquette
My best friend and best man was also in his mess dress (and had more medals than I did); and one of my groomsmen was in his Marine formal uniform. The two other groomsmen were in tuxes. To be honest I just looked at the pics and it doesn't look bad; it just shows you the diversity of buds I had. I've been to weddings that had everyone in mess dress, and that was cool too. No one went around checking to see who had the most medals either. It is a moot point, and anyone who fixates on it needs to reassess their priorities... Cheers!
