"Multiple minor traffic infractions without allegations of other criminal conduct would not be an issue under the Criminal Conduct criterion. However, they can be considered under the Personal Conduct criterion along with any other dishonest, unreliable, or rule-breaking behavior." Considering the other actions of this individual, it could have an impact on his clearance especially when it appears he is actively pursuing them as shown in that video. I just hope he captures it on video when he's tazed!

Painted nails and a trimmed goatee? He needs to be straightened out (no pun intended) no matter what his sexual orientation is. Neither are allowed for males in the USAF, regardless of which team they bat on. A shaving waiver means NO shaving whatsoever, so if he's trimming his beard (no STS) then he's in violation. It's bullshit that people are too scared to correct such discrepancies for fear of unsubstantiated accusations afterward...

Why is that in this thread?!? Nothing 'WTF' about it!

That is sweet! You owe us a range report after you shoot it, don't make me ban you if you don't! Cheers! M2

Here ya go, the one uniform all services can use!

Scottsdale Gun Club is having a US Palm blowout sale, I was able to pick up an AK Attack Rack I've been wanting for about half to a third of what it originally cost... (Note that not all colors shown in this pic are are available, and black is available but not shown) For anyone running a Kalashnikov, this is one of the best racks available. It is also available in a lefthand version for you Southpaws out there. Note this is the first version, US Palm redesigned it to accept a Level IIIA soft armor panel chest plate. It is on sale as well, but only in Khaki... They do have other versions, to include a multi-platform one as well as ones with plates installed; but they are not on sale. Still, SCG has some of the best prices I could find, so they're definitely worth checking out! Cheers! M2

Thank God, I wouldn't want anyone to miss such an accurate analysis of yours truly! But I tell you what, if anyone feels CCP/PYB was treated unfairly, feel free to post up a comment in this thread. If a majority of the people on here agree, I will reinstate his account and offer an apology. That is the democratic process in action, something he can't help but agree with being such a diehard patriot. I promise I won't delete any posts unless they violate the first rule of the Squadron Bar established by Rich when he set it up, "Be civil, don't abuse it." I cannot promise NSA not doing the same... This will also become a separate thread when I get a chance, it doesn't need to be buried in the Wilkerson one. Cheers! M2

Reminds me of the cashier from Seinfeld...

When I was at ETAR (95-99), the first used BMW 318i I bought the previous owner told me about a great mechanic in Ramstein village named Kurt Koprowski. I had two beater 3-series while I was there (the second was a 320i M-series), and he took excellent care of both of them. Well, a Google search still listed him at Landstuhler Str. 32, 66877 Ramstein-Miesenbach; right next to the Thai Thai Orchidee. His number is listed as 06371/70724. If she does look him up, let me know. It would be nice to know the guy is still around. Typical German, smoked like a chimney and drank like a fish; but a great mechanic and honest as well! Cheers!

WTF?

Nope, CannonCrashPad is done not only here; but on BaseOps completely. He's a troll, and honestly may have been PYB reincarnated... He is gone. Good riddance.

I wore BDUs enough during my 25 years to know how they were, and they weren't bad uniforms. However, I am not saying to bring them back; just that the DoD needs to design one uniform and everyone (yes, including the Marines) wear it. This waste of every service designing (and redesigning) "combat" uniforms has to stop. Talk to any Army bubba, they hate 'em. They prefer the multicam.

Go back and read post #30 in this thread and try that again...

Bringing this beauty home on Saturday, going boating in the Gulf of Mexico on Sunday...

Everybody was OK with BDUs from the early 1980s until the mid-2000s, why in the fuck can't the military figure out one standard utility/combat/field uniform for everyone now? Seriously, the ABUs have been a huge joke since their introduction, and the Navy's are even more ridiculous. They don't even wear them in real combat zones, much like the Air Force they use Multicams. The Army at least didn't develop theirs by committee, but the ACU still sucks balls. And seriously, the only real reason the Marines developed MARPAT was to be different. They always have to be different. Adopt the Multicams, bring back subdued patches so folks can have some sense of unit pride, and put an end to all this bullshit!

Update. And, in a related matter...

He can thank my old boss, Gen James L. Jones, for that.

The IP address showing for you isn't the same as the ones that were having problems. I searched on the one listed for you and don't see it in the ban list. I checked the one on your profile (it's different) but it too isn't list on the ban list. Check your UP address (get it from https://whatismyipaddress.com/) the PM it to me and/or Toro, and we'll see if it matches what you're showing up as here and if it's on the ban list. Cheers! M2

RUMINT is we are getting a Gander Mountain here in the Alamo City. From what folks have told me, they have some awesome sales but their day-to-day prices and selection are nothing to get excited about. If that is the case, it may be worth the trip; but I would suggest looking at their weekly sales flyer before going. An hour drive isn't really that far anyway (at least by Texas standards)... Cheers! M2

May Belichick and Brady can make something out of him. I always (and still do) think Tebow has potential...

Agreed, my friend, I think I paid around $225 for 1260 rounds of M67 (Yugo 7.62x39) at a gun show on the same day as the 2011 Tucson shooting, and I thought that was expensive. Most I've bad during these "Dark Ages" was $350/1000. Not too bad, and I've stocked up on the stuff (although it's all destined to end up on the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico...) Hopefully we'll see some normalcy one of these days... Cheers! M2
