I wonder that myself. In the few squadrons I've been in, the only possible way a 1CO could find something is if they went looking through desk drawers or went into the dude's shitter. Either is wrong, so it should at the minimum cancel out. I find it very hard to believe someone just left a songbook sitting on the ops desk. This "superstar" went looking for anything to discredit others and build her case.

Just feel out (sts) your new squadron and see what the general consensus is. I think most squadrons are CMR with few minor deviations. Definitely go with Pops or Mr. Lims if you happen to be in Korea.

Yep, I'm sure there's no half-truths or embellishments in that thing.

Just read the official complaint...unbelievable. I have a bad feeling this is going to negatively impact squadrons in a HUGE manner. Hell, even the full lyrics to S&M Man were in the complaint. My one question is, how in the hell did she get her hands on songbooks, "wingmen guides," etc. Suggest everyone cleans out their space at work and puts stuff in a truly safe place, not under a sheet of paper in your desk drawer. And don't assume the 1CO's, AFE, etc. are "cool" because they haven't complained, I think that is a big part of what bit the community in the ass. Shit's about to hit the fan. Edit: Here's the link to the complaint if anyone wants to read/scan it: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CDEQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fprotectourdefenders.com%2Fdownloads%2FFINAL_SMITH_ADMIN_COMPLAINT.pdf&ei=9gWpULzELIii8gSq64DYDQ&usg=AFQjCNGUSns0zCM7djg9wt3-Gzz7PWP4Kw&cad=rja

2. I don't know why, but that shit is hilarious...maybe because I've had a few glasses of scotch.

Good point...probably the worst demographic to target. At least I'm convinced that's Breitling's viewpoint.

Breitling is taking over a year for delivery; sounds like the luxury watch industry as a whole is not too concerned with timely fulfillment of LE/custom orders.

What a joke. We have 3 chick fighter pilots and another inbound and nobody could give a rat's ass. The only thing that matters is if they can perform in the jet and are good "bros." I don't know what her personal story truly entails, but sweeping generalizations like this are way out of line.

There's no documentation of you not being a complete retard. If you weren't dumber than shit, there would clearly be open source confirmation of that fact. Please provide proof with source.

The sniper has some awesome A/A capes, hence C-model interest.

Seriously, what's with all these broken sarcasm detectors lately!

Check your sarcasm detector. Figured that one was a softball, guess not.

Caveat: Not a fucking NAV... I would do absolutely nothing to prepare...it's easy.

I remember doing exactly that in UPT...only for the first month or so in Phase II, but still. Did they do away with that? Caveat: Even if they still do this, I don't recommend even looking at that shit prior...memorizing words with little real understanding/meaning behind them has little utility.

You can't be serious...

Thanks for all the info dudes. I hadn't thought of Columbus, but I'm assuming the AF has found a way to make the process painful...not true? Sounds like AL is pretty loose on painful hunting regulations...can't wait.

Found out I'll be at Maxwell through deer season. Does anyone have any good info for non-resident white tail and possibly hog hunting in AL? I'm down for driving anywhere in the state on the weekends. I'm not much for outfitters (don't desire to pay $1400 for a white tail hunt), but if that's the only realistic way to hunt I am not against it, assuming I can find something reasonably affordable. I appreciate the help any of you can lend. Also, if anyone else here is going to be in AL for the first month of the early gun season, let me know if you want to put a trip or two together.

Don't know what the syllabus looks like now, but several years ago there were definitely some small differences...neither good or bad. Like I said, no real difference in the product.

AD vs. Guard. There's really no difference in the product. Always heard good things about Kelly and Tucson is a cool city/area, so I'm sure it would not suck to go there. Doesn't seem there's anyway you can go wrong, not that you have a choice.

Sooo, if something changes and requires you to update your gameplan, "maneuvers," etc. in the air, you just don't do it since it wasn't "pre-thought"? Are you sure you're not part of an Asian Air Force?

Larry Miller, now that's a badass Indian name.

Maybe things have changed, but I know a lot of Whiting dudes who are easily a year behind their peers, even when including 6 month casual stints for their non-Whiting bros. Not saying Whiting is a bad deal by any means, but it is not unreasonable to consider the timeline effects.

I'm betting RAM DUMP was activated for 99% of them before they even left the room. That's been my experience with these types at verifications. A few verifications ago I'm walking out and hear a small group talking about how they couldn't wait to get out of there...I wish I could say unbelievable, but it's really not.

All shit flipping aside, the dudes actually are deployed to more than one place around the world. No, they won't win the "I'm in a bigger shithole then you" fight, but it's not their fault U.S. strategic need leads them to Location X instead of Location Y. Additionally, not their fault Country X and Y don't see value in or are too scared to start some shit with America. Are they actively doing more than others right this minute...hell no, but they are certainly strategically necessary in a few locations and are damn well ready to kick the shit out of somebody if it comes to it. Now back to giving Raptor dudes shit...

Relax, just giving the dudes shit...they're doing good work and I know it.
