shoe clerk

The Navy has their own Identity issues so Mav mistakenly changed services at the beginning of the movie thinking things would get better. He then goes through MQ-9 flight training while elbow deep in a bag of Dorito's for most of the first half of the movie. That's how I always identify an MQ-9 pilot...the orange bottom right sleeve of the flight suit..

I heard this sequel is a whole lot more realistic than the first Top Gun. Mav is now an overweight AF MQ-9 pilot bitching about providing ISR support until one day he gets a CAS mission and takes out 30 of our own soldiers to kill the #157 most wanted terrorist on the US watch list. He then keeps buzzing the tower in his triumphant return to base but nobody seems to take any notice due to platform limitations and most of the shoe clerks are out with the Army anyway after flight suit leadership kept insisting "we're all in." Mav finally lands and all the shoe clerks eventually return to base when flight suit leadership tells them to "Get out of those lightweight flame retardent ACUs, we gave you flammable heavyweight ABUs in 120 degree desert heat so everybody knows we have ADCON over you." The movie ends with the Air Force becoming the Army Air Corps once again.
