  2. ADMIN NOTE: Don't start multiple threads in different sections of the forum on the same topic. This isn't the My Little Pony forum!

  4. Yep, been discussing it all day on a Texas firearms forum I'm on. There's been a lot of arm chair experts criticizing the reaction time of those involved, but honestly I felt they did an excellent job given how quickly it happened. It appears the defender made a 20-22 yard head shot. God bless him! Certainly the fact that a lot less than the 26 killed/20 wounded from Sutherland Springs and the state easing up on the restrictions where licensed individuals can carry proved that such tragedies can be avoided or minimized when armed, law-abiding citizens are present. It's sad that people have to protect themselves from such threats, but the reality is failing to do so can have much more terrible consequences.

  6. Sorry, the spammer was from Mumbai and has been deleted and banned. I also changed his password and blocked his email and IP address. Since this thread is 11+ years old, I should note that many years ago I not only found my buddy (he lives up in Fargo, ND) and was able to not only connect him with the guy that was with his father when he died, but also with his long-lost brother. That said, this thread is now officially closed (and locked.
  7. So it looks like it's not going to be the "Striker" after all! 🐺🐺🐺
  8. The answer is--or at least was during my time--no, a MSgt cannot tell a captain to take out the trash. A MSgt can ask or remind a captain to take out the trash, but if I were still a captain and a MSgt told me to take out the trash, we would have a very short one-sided sidebar. But I have been retired going on 14 years, and things have definitely changed since I was in...
  9. Ever try to get parts for a 1964 model year car versus a 2019 one? There's approximately 1400-1500 Hornets flying today, the USAF retired its last EF-111A twenty-one years ago.

  19. ADMIN NOTE: Well, the bad news is that I didn't get an email notification of your reply, so something's up with the forum software. If you don't mind, could you start a thread about the problem under the AFTO-781 section of the forum so it will be "officially addressed?" Unfortunately, I can't promise when it will be fixed. We're due for an update that may take a couple of days to occur, but those are usually for security issues so don't be surprised if nothing changes after it. I ask for an appreciate your patience as we figure out what's going on...
  20. ADMIN NOTE: I have no idea what the issue is, but I never subscribe to threads in the first place. However, I just signed up for this one to see if I get the notifications, and if there is an issue, we will pass it on to the software folks.
  21. LCDR Tim White wasn't charged; but as for any decoration if he indeed got one (and he should have!), I am sure the USN keep that on the down-low! https://www.stripes.com/source-no-charges-against-navy-officer-for-weapons-violations-in-chattanooga-attack-1.361644 He did get a key to the city of Chattanooga, and a day named after him! https://www.wrcbtv.com/story/35359917/lt-cmdr-tim-white-relieved-during-change-of-command-ceremony The six that fell or were injured also (eventually) received Purple Hearts.
