So they (at least the owner) used to be for Ron Paul, and now they're for Hillary--what a difference 4 years can make! So if Hillary would welcome welcome their support does this mean she, if elected President, would push for legislation/issue executive orders to effectively end the 'federal ban' on consensual adult prostitution? What's also funny is that in my latest SAPR training I was taught that anything that contributes to the objectification of women essentially allows for a more easier environment for which sexual assaults can occur. Personally I support the legality of prostitution amongst consenting adults...but then again, I don't buy into the 'war on women' bs. I do have a feeling ol' Bill is happy about this! https://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/04/18/hookers-for-hillary-bunny-ranch-employees-endorse-hillary-clinton/

Plenty of legitimate charities that do the same thing...and that weed out most of the bums wanting to use the money for drugs/alcohol, or who are just too lazy to work. I went to a very large urban university and saw the same bums for 4 years. There are plenty of ways to help people who need it without getting scammed. But hey, it's your money, you do what you want with it!

Bums on the street do it everyday and people across the US give them millions...stupid Americans.

He must have been referring to BQZip's mom...

I think we have emotionally upset the 'everyone should get a trophy' crowd...

If you're in the Army, you better check that white privilege of yours... https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2015/04/03/army-diversity-training/25250733/ Slide is here: https://www.facebook.com/usawtfm/photos/a.391474713605.169598.242181938605/10153243786443606/?type=1

The 'one earbud in, one out' policy will still apply. Though for some reason they won't have to wear reflective belts. Weird.

Unfortunately no. Just those that signed in FY14.

I'll be honest...this one surprised me, big time. And it's rare these days when the AF surprises me in a good way. The manning must be even worse than the AF originally let on. Sucks that a lot of prior E's and late rated guys don't get the extra sweet moola from Uncle Rico.

This guy is truly badass...

This can't be...the President's administration said he 'served honorably' (and I don't think they have retraced the statement either). So this all just must be a misunderstanding.

I've looked at the specs, and it doesn't seem better than the Shield. Don't get me wrong, I like Glocks and they have an awesome reputation, but I think they were a little late to the game on this one. I'm sure they'll sell a shit load, but not as many if they came out with it a few years ago.

It's good if Senior Leaders are now being surprised by realizing (and now hopefully understanding) that not every shiny penny wants to go to school/stay in. If they're not surprised then I would question if these same Senior Leaders understand the thoughts/concerns of their younger/mid-level officers. IIRC, wasn't the SECAF surprised to find out during the 2010/2011 VSP that so many of his young rated officers wanted out? Lear, you have shown yourself to be one of the better leaders...unfortunately not all leaders are like you. And if they are, they're not all doing the best at communicating their philosophy with their younger/mid-level officers. I've had good ones, and I've had not so good ones. Just my $.02

Valid...but they till technically 'requested' to go to school with the 3849. They just turned down an assignment (just so happened to be school) and that is what drove the separation. They could have just as easily not applied for school and dropped normal seperation papers if they didn't like the result/next assignment. Either way, the result is the same: A guy wanted out when his time was up, so he got out. If this surprises senior leaders...then good.

I'm pretty sure selects have to fill out a 3849 and still 'request' school. That being the case, I imagine they can select that they do not wish to compete for any specific chool and accept the prejudice associated with it...this way they're not turning down an assignment per se.

I see what you did there...

Don't live in Rio Rancho unless you want a 45+ min commute, which isn't necessary being stationed at Kirtland. Like others have said, live in the Foothills/NE Heights or East Mountains. As for the schools, the ones in those areas will be best, outside of private/Catholic schools.

I don't why we're so surprised... https://archive.airforcetimes.com/article/20140330/NEWS/303300015/Mustache-March-ends-controversy-lingers

If you're worried X would be banned and you didn't stock up on X beforehand (especially when it was cheap), then you didn't really want X. And I think this order (and it's not for all 5.56 btw, at least not yet) and every other law/order that affects my Right to keep and bear arms is unconstitutional. So don't wait if there's something you think you might want in the future. Because just like going to the BX/PX in Iraq and Afghanistan, if you see something in stock that you think you 'might' want, you better go buy it because the next day it might not be there and God only knows the next time it will be back.

I think the AF will let everyone know in June/July...I know some good 11H's who got passed over for O-5 last year so I'm curious as to what happens this time around, assuming they are passed over again. My bet is that most will get continued to 20, especially guys in stressed fields.

Looks like they're changing up BMT just a little bit... So it's gotten to the point where the AF needs an additional 5 days during BMT to tell new Airmen not to rape, assault, or harass people. I'm all for the AF telling them this...but 5 days, after they've been told it constantly during the main part of the training? I have a feeling more of this will seap into the non AETC world as well. https://www.airforcetimes.com/story/military/careers/air-force/2015/02/17/reinventing-basic-graduation-comes-earlier-real-life-schooling-follows/22211151/

Did you ask your boss why they didn't give you a DP, specifically as it relates to your recent strats? If you don't ask then you'll never know, and worse, you're giving your leadership a pass without having to face the music and explain themselves.
