uhhello

There isn't a shortage of volunteers as said before and before.

They cut/paste the AFCENT A2CU guidance into 'current guidance'. Most of it is bullshit and we have been told an updated version is on the way removing the convenience stop stuff amongst other shit.

Sorry, was going off of my world where we're about 25% green bag wearing and the rest are A2CU for many years now.

Not sure what you mean by that. Its a simple patch change. You aren't buying a new uniform.

So the word I got and that was passed on supposedly worked from ACC head bob down to our grp bob. He didn't specify if they were replacing or would be authorized for wear with the bag.

Facts from on high

Green bags, mulitcam patches, brown (coyote) boots, and brown tshirts coming very very shortly.

No, the program was pretty stupid from what I gather on the AF side. These were brand new fresh out of basic Airmen. A couple were in the linguist pipeline I believe. Nobody had a degree. You are correct in that none finished but I don't think there was actually a 'finish line' on this.

Where are you getting your data? I have a pretty direct source who says 1 self eliminated, 4 completed program and of those 4 2 were recommended for commissioning programs. Are we talking different programs?

Why hasn't the coastal areas taken the far east approach to the annual storms they deal with. You go to okinawa and everything is cement or the equivalent. I was at Tyndall for first assignment and we hangared 2-3 times for pending storms. We would put 10-20 F-15s in the available hangars and head to the dorms to party.

MI-26 is a bit over 40k but still not even close to enough barring major stripping mods

Nothing government is insured as far as I know.

Think of the infrastructure costs saved. Rapid response availability. Build the wall then build these carriers. Dibs on the spark tank suggestion

Guys, the answer is already out there.

Wasn't impressed with First Man at all. The flag hoopla was much to do about nothing. I counted at least 30+ shots of USA or the flag proudly displayed. Even showed it in the landing scenes.

The "no stopping" for the A2CU will be corrected in an update message. HAF has said the A2CU will be treated exactly like the ABU/OCP uniform in regards to off base stops.

Ha. Hilarious but mostly true. I hate dogging on them because there are some really good dudes, even on the rescue side who get it and just want to do the best at their mission. Then there are the rest who won't fit in too well to the AFSOC side I think.

Whos GA? Haven't seen those guys in about a year on our birds.

No I get it but with newer tech and not frankensteined shit that we have in the 60, I think they'll be alright. At least off the bat...if they ever get it fielded.

What mission equipment would it need? With current tech being used I can't see anything more than a couple thousand pounds at most.

Yup. I'm with you.

That has some pretty amazing one liners in it. Alot of them 🙂

For fucks sake it's 'lose'.

That would require some pretty epic land/air/sea combat scenes.

Yeah, complete head scratcher. The weekend trip to Syria with a bag of cash was icing on the cake.
