I mean it's been 20 years since we've freed the fuck out of someone. Iran has potential. Fuck I forgot about Libya.

Yeah, zero chance anyone not a flyer themselves knows the difference in wings. Hell, I'd bet a lot of enlisted fliers couldn't point out the differences. Worked for an enlisted Ops sup at one point in career who decreed no flier would go to a base appt in their bag, we would be in ABUs only. "They don't respect the flight suit, they respect the wings". Laughter ensued.

Agreed. Awareness keeps it at bay though.

Commanders are dropping like flies this year

Conduct PRIOR to taking command. Written poorly. -
Active duty experience only. Crew chief schedule will flex with flying window, surges, exercises, TDY, and deployments. Could be weekday shifts 8 hours, could be rotating shifts of 12 hours. Could be just straight 12 hour shifts until shit is fixed. Every location will be different depending on the mission. Bottom line, if you're goal is to become a fighter pilot, you'll find the time. My crew chief school was around 6 months of actual school. Who knows what it is now though.

Switched to straight cash back as well. 2% from citibank. Amex caught up to my retirement about a year or so after.

There is plenty of time, it's just a matter of what you want to sacrifice to get it done. I wouldn't recommend it in the slightest but....Depends on the school too, crew chief school I could have gone through blind, deaf, and stupid 🙂

I know on active duty you won't be able to go to school on the air force dime until you get to your first base and I can't imagine the guard would pick up college tuition while you're supposed to be going to tech school but I don't know. As far as practicality, its very possible but you would be essentially going to a full time job from about 0600-1600'ish every day depending on the job you're in school for. Would take a pretty dedicated individual to do both but possible.

Go ahead and take a knee, drink some water, and maybe a change of socks.

All valid points. Was just thinking out loud.
-
What does being inclusive mean to you though? Don't you just hire the most qualified candidate? I think there is very real pressure to give more points to candidates that might not be the MOST qualified in the pool.

It's fucking nuts to think what those dudes and kids went through going through those "tunnels" in the pitch dark with raging currents.

An object resembling an antenna has been found in the area where the Nordstream pipeline explosions took place last year. This is what Russian President Vladimir Putin says. - Specialists believe that it may be an antenna that must receive the signal that activates the explosive device, which may have been placed under the pipelines, Putin says, according to the AP news agency, stressing that he cannot confirm anything. - It appears that several bombs were placed. Some exploded and some didn't, but it's unclear why. In the video below you can see Vladimir Putin explaining what has been found at the Nord Stream pipelines. At the same time, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs informs DR that "a small object has been observed in the immediate vicinity of the Nord Stream 2 pipeline." - The relevant authorities have assessed that the observation does not pose an immediate security risk and that there is no immediate danger to people or ship traffic in the area, the ministry writes in a written response to DR. Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen (M) tells DR Nyheder that the object has been photo-documented. - We take that seriously, of course, and it is being investigated, he says. - When our authorities can say more about this case, they will say more about it, says Lars Løkke Rasmussen. Putin calls theory nonsense Vladimir Putin also calls it "nonsense" that Ukrainian activists were behind the sabotage of Nord Stream 1 and 2. This is what the Russian news agencies RIA and Tass write, according to Ritzau. Last week, the German media ARD and Die Zeit carried a story with a theory about what may have happened in the time leading up to the sabotage on September 26, 2022. In the stories, it appears that pro-Ukrainian groups may have been involved. The sabotage has instead been carried out at the "state level", says Putin, according to the Reuters news agency.

Ol' Lindsey Graham just always itching to send others into harms way. Don't think he's ever encountered a foreign policy choice where he doesn't choose force on force. https://www.newsweek.com/lindsey-graham-recommends-shooting-russian-jets-response-us-drone-1787812 Does Russia have a leg to stand on(LOAC) if they can somehow prove that the reapers are providing intelligence to UKR and therefore is a lawful threat to be taken out?

Many a blade strike on the birthday balloons. My favorites were the ones anchored near our LZ's in the tiny COPs and smaller FOBs

You could have led with that versus your original reply. That being said, not sure how you can pull all that info from a recording. Don't disagree with the above though.

First it was the coloreds, now it's the women....Hopefully FAA is working on bear defenses
-
I'm not in the industry, is this happening more frequently or is it just getting reported publicly more now with all these channels mining for it?
-
Wasn't assigning blame in any of them. Just stating that we've been getting very lucky lately and are bound to have 3 parties not paying attention at some point at this rate.

We're running out of strikes

Yup. On a nuke base, there aren't many base squadrons that aren't involved in the surety aspect in some shape or form. -
Just run across the border for it 🙂
