They could put them to good use... "CAP claimed its first U-boat kill on July 11, 1942, when Captain Johnny Haggins and Major Wynant Farr, flying a Grumman G-44 Widgeon armed with two depth charges, bombed a sub they had been shadowing for three hours, just as it came up to periscope depth." ..."reported 173 U-boat positions and dropped 82 bombs on 57 of those subs." https://www.historynet.com/civil-air-patrols-combat-pilots/

Perhaps 2.5 grads can fix MyEval then?...maybe they learned that?

Hmmm, she has her stars...maybe we shouldn't lighten-up!? Maybe she's quite the criminal authority.

Reminds me...

FTFY... So 4+ yr contract in exchange for <$50k/yr and/or Base of Pref...with a contract rider that of +1yr even IF THEY CANNOT DELIVER BoP...which AF for enlisted assignments said was less than 50% chance of fill. Now, I know that's enlisted assignments, but it's still AFPC we're talking about. And, the functionals will hate having their hands-tied on PCS flexibility, but they might get manpower in exchange. ...and the biggest kicker...does the money stack!?!?!? Seems NO (didn't read section 334(c) of title 37, United States Code)

Sssh, RG just... Also...everyone knows money comes from birthday cards!

I presume him... https://www.af.mil/About-Us/Biographies/Display/Article/572404/mike-minihan/ ...or could be wrong and it's this...

New monetary theory is based off of most trusted financial, therefore governmental, system...who wins the game of trust is anyone's guess...but my money would be the most open, accessible, and largest financial system/economy. Options, and not just typical trading options, are the true king. Flexibility and portability can't be underestimated.

They were also asked to reclass ASFCs or Comission into needs of Mother Blue. https://taskandpurpose.com/news/air-force-enlisted-drone-pilot/

...and you earned a PCA to the MAJCOM EO office...

Related.... https://www.popsci.com/technology/merlin-labs-air-force-cargo-planes/ C-130J...go figure, wonder how well Merlin can fly a Day Vis LL? Or Max Effort LDG? Now with a UPT2.5 graduate upgraded AC in min time who is also a fast burning, minimum flying WG/CCE??

This, and yup...future dumpster fire brewing, smoldering

@ClearedHot wanted a new thread and said...

Agree with several attributable facts you present, however... Who's says the poor can't invest? What's stopping them? If you don't understand Cramer's Rule 1: "Bulls Make Money, Bears Make Money and Pigs Get Slaughtered"...then perhaps its their education/understanding that is the problem. Side note, last I saw Robin Hood made some small investors thousands, and yes others lost -- but they were investing!

This convo belongs in the Investment showdow thread! Big investment idea(s): complex, compound investing using OPM (other people $) principle and across multiple markets...we all know info is power/money ...kind of like TSP offering new funds after federal retirements changed to more TSP-matching schemas and less defined-retirement structures (i.e. BRS vs top 3 and older systems)...aka shifting the risk, creating new monetary fluidity using OPM...people with more info should see better returns, the average person is likely worse off. However, those informed people who play market bear and bull runs have new great options which could be quite lucrative. Classic TSP funds don't allow much room for bear market plays, save a TSP loan well timed and, with discipline, invested in growth (or short plays) elsewhere

Historical TSP finds still have same low fees, new funds...not so much

We know where all the grain is going now...

The chain of command that said we were winning for 20+ years?

You mean pilot and/or liberal arts major? Hey...Do/did you steal box-nasties by chance!? Or, might you have a stop watch readily available?🧭 (*sarcasm)

Threat of regulation by the "sovereign" - standard non-collaborative approach. Saber rattling in case of need of reg crackdown..interesting whenever things don't go ideally he says stress-test...as if they were banks

The one thing my quoted article does do truthfully is infer that global warming and cooling is far greater affected by cosmic/solar powers, plate tectonics, volcanic activity, and ocean currents...amoung other things other than human activity. There are far greater powers at play than humans.

Amen.
