  1. Lesson number 1 for AFPC; Keep it simple and hire this guy.
  2. Latest ESERB Info. https://www.military.com/daily-news/2014/02/07/air-force-convene-early-retirement-board-some-officers-june.html?comp=7000023317828&rank=1
  3. AN/URT-44 Locator Beacon failure rate = 10 Failures out of 22 Ejections. https://www.airforcetimes.com/article/20140205/NEWS/302050028/Locator-beacons-Air-Force-ejection-seats-failing-unacceptable-rate
  4. It seems the gang of four (14 stars)that "came out" in support of the 1% COLA reduction may have kicked the hornet's nest. Is this blowback or legitimate/expected reaction or something else? https://www.airforcetimes.com/article/20140129/NEWS05/301290016/Pentagon-will-review-higher-pensions-top-officers
  5. Global Strike Command is giving their best effort to double down. https://www.airforcetimes.com/article/20140128/NEWS05/301280019/More-airmen-implicated-nuke-cheating-probe
  6. Things are fixing to get serious (or maybe sillier). Not only is leadership (management) looking to repair the Air ForceNuclear Enterprise but they now will be trying to figure out what's wrong with the Strategic Deterrence Enterprise (that's a term you don't see often). I would expect to see lots of "Rapid Enterprise Reinvigorating" (once again) happening in the not to distant future. This Reinvigoration of the Nuclear/Strategic Deterrence Enterprise will continue until we regain the trust of our nation and confidence of our allies. Ready, fire, aim/ rinse and repeat.

    Gun Talk

    There’s something to be said for high capacity magazines... A guy walked into a crowded bar waving his 1911 Colt .45 ACP pistol with an 8 round magazine and yelled, "Who in here hasbeen screwing my wife?" A voice from the back of the bar yelled back, "You’ll need more ammo."
  8. Now I know where the A-1 gets their ideas. (not Serious).
  9. Hagel looks at pay raises for missile officers. Cheating on cert test, illegal drug possession/ring, failing NSI's, security breaches, etc, = very well played, indeed. https://www.military.com/daily-news/2014/01/16/hagel-looks-at-pay-raises-for-missile-officers.html?comp=700001075741&rank=1
  10. One more goes the way of the dodo bird. Acting Undersecretary of Navy Forced to Resign. I can see active duty "male personnel" starting to develop serious castration anxiety symptoms, particularly when SARC personnel are in the vicinity. Hopefully, this will be covered as a service connected disability by the VA. I would recommend; Literal castration = 100% disability and Metaphorical castration = 75% disability. https://www.military.com/daily-news/2014/01/15/navys-acting-undersecretary-forced-to-resign.html?comp=7000023317828&rank=1
  11. Retired Generals, Admiral Embrace Pay Reductions. https://www.airforcetimes.com/article/20140113/BENEFITS05/301130026/Retired-generals-admiral-embrace-pay-reductions
  12. Three-Hour Orgasm Sends Woman to ER. https://www.cnn.com/video/data/2.0/video/us/2014/01/10/hln-vo-three-hour-orgasm-emergency-room.hln.html
  13. Op-Ed; Morale(?) is High in Nuclear Force. "HIGH" seems to be the key word/concept. The USAF Nuclear Enterprise; Where they do more then just Aim HIGH, now pass the Doobie. https://www.airforcetimes.com/article/20140111/NEWS01/301110003/Op-Ed-Morale-high-nuclear-force
  14. Hurlburt Field: Brigadier General Jon Weeks relieved of Command. Another relationship issue? https://www.weartv.com/news/features/top-stories/stories/top-ranked-commander-relieved-duty-at-hurlburt-airfield-40183.shtml
  15. Missing Captain now Considered a Deserter. https://www.airforcetimes.com/article/20140109/NEWS06/301090010/Missing-Shaw-captain-considered-deserter-OSI-says
  16. Yes it's real and I forgot to add this video clip; It's good to be the king.https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=StJS51d1Fzg#t=0
  17. It's good to be king. Military Brass Immune to Pension Rate cuts. https://www.airforcetimes.com/article/20140108/BENEFITS05/301080005/Military-brass-immune-pension-rate-cuts
  18. Roving Patrols Combat Military Sex Assaults. I can't believe the Navy came up with this before the Air Force, our SARC folks got some catching up to do. Also, patrolmembers get to wear a distinctive "Red Patrol Badge" on their uniform; now that's a nice and maybe even a somewhat historic touch. Now, the SARC needs to find some type of distinctive/highly visible badge or marker to help identify all the past(26,000 in CY13), present, and potential future sexual assault violators. https://www.military.com/daily-news/2014/01/07/roving-patrols-combat-military-sex-assaults.html
  19. 3 Hurlburt Field Ospreys hit in Sudan. https://www.nwfdailynews.com/military/top-story/hurlburt-ospreys-hit-in-south-sudan-1.253194
  20. Duck Dynasty Gay Reindeer, not that there is anything wrong with that. https://www.jibjab.com/view/F-fbnQogRSOS3iMAvb3miw?aw_affid=85386&aw_gid=0&aw_bid=0&aw_pid=0&aw_cr=1ohftl0vdkmk2&aw_sitename=VigLinkInc
  21. Sounds like rebel fire damaged two U.S. Ospreys and one of the aircraft was heavily damaged. Three U.S. Military Personnel were wounded, one of them critically. Also, the rescue mission appears to have been aborted at least temporarily.
  22. Dang, how did the USAF let the Army get this one. https://msn.foxsports.com/buzzer/story/meet-the-former-nfl-cheerleader-who-is-now-in-the-army-122013
  23. We could use another General who knows how to handle the Russians, its been way to long since we had such leadership. I say promote him to 4 Star and let the good General run the War Room. The War Room. https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=WI5B7jLWZUc#t=3
  24. Never seen this type action before. Legal or not? "Airmen eligible to retire may also be vulnerable to DOS rollback separation, Garcia said." "Retirement is not automatic. If you are eligible to retire and identified for DOS rollback, you must submit a retirement application by Jan. 31, 2014, for the May 1 or earlier retirement. If you do not, you will be separated instead, and will not receive retirement benefits," he explained. https://www.af.mil/News/ArticleDisplay/tabid/223/Article/467760/dos-rollback-included-in-fy14-force-management.aspx
  25. Al-Shabab update. This one should be more NSA acceptable. https://www.nbcnews.com/video/nightly-news/53847589?from=en-us_msnhp#53847589
