  1. Looking at the O-5 list - I found it interesting that 100% of the BPZers were SDE selects. 130 of the 195 school slots went to the BPZ guys
  2. What is ECARS? The Google just turned up car sales websites and an amateur radio club (no shit).
  3. Serial trespasser at MacDill Air Force Base warrants explanation, senator says This lady keeps sneaking onto MacDill - they've found her at the gym, at a restaurant on base, hiding in a parking lot, and living in a boat in Fam Camp. WTF?
  4. Apparently you included this without actually looking at his bio yourself - he went to CGSC and National War College...after completing ACSC and AWC in correspondence first. https://www.af.mil/information/bios/bio.asp?bioID=7550
  5. They talk about bonuses and retention rates on car message boards? That's weird.
  6. WTF? If you do it as a Capt they won't give you IDE credit later? That's some bullshit - it's the same school! I know a dude who did Olmstead as a Capt and got IDE credit once he met his school looks - weird they don't do the same with NPS
  7. You said AAD through NPS - did you get IDE equivalency?
  8. I guess 105mm doesn't count?
  9. You think the teaser trailer with no actual movie footage is way better? Whale's vagina - agree to disagree.
  10. He probably did his casual at his ROTC Det and the directory reference is a holdover from that. I did casual at my Det after grad and my title was "Assistant Admissions Officer" - which meant I continued to party like a college student but had money. And went to a recruiting fair every now and then.
  11. Key Performance Parameter = Requirements speak for specific capabilities of a new aircraft (or modification). "The aircraft must be able to do X" (known as a threshold), "and if possible we would like it to do Y" (known as an objective)
  12. New Anchorman 2 trailer is up:
  13. That's it...war's over. Time to come home.
  14. So JCS Staff outranks Wing exec by a whole half point. And getting higher than a 95 on your PFT outranks being an instructor in your MDS.... In what universe is this the system?
  15. I don't. I was being sarcastic - highlighting the hole in the logic of the discussion in another thread on how those with low hours can't be good/credible leaders while here's someone with a ton of hours that does not seem to have many fans in the MAF.
  16. 5,000+ hours - he must be an incredible leader.
  17. If only Air University had a website that told you everything you needed to know about ACSC and OLMP.
  18. Step 1: Stop calling them drones.
  19. I'm not sure what it is, but I get the impression you may be a bit biased in this discussion.
  20. Parents of transgender first-grader file discrimination complaint https://www.cnn.com/2013/02/27/us/colorado-transgender-girl-school/index.html
  21. Not if you know how to use it.
  22. McKinsey Quarterly article on the military not being able to retain talented officers......from 1999. https://www.mckinseyquarterly.com/The_US_military_is_losing_the_war_for_talent_356
  23. Good for Walter.
