Duck

All my s auto correct to Duck!!!

Might as well call them and at least see what they can do. From my research, no one was able to beat NBKC, until Marty and Trident came around. You can also try Navy Federal, my dad used them and they were able to be competitive with NBKC rates.

Yes! It is 100% possible! I haven't seen a 43rd UPT stud guy come through probably because of limited places to farm them out and a plethora of 11Fs jumping ship for ANG/Reserve! Occasionally we get a guy at UPT hired by Klamath or Tucson! The path is the std UPT, IFF, B Course, but rather than going back to your hired unit you will be farmed out to hopefully make IP at another unit! Only then would you return! However talking to a couple of my buddies, it seems like those guys rarely get back to the unit as an IP and typically find other units!!!! Edited to add more exclamation points.

Hmm... Looking through her bio she has never been an Aircraft Commander and only has 1,330 flight hours. Not passing any judgement, it just caught my eye.

How's the outlook for tankers at MacDill? Ops tempo?

I love how he takes a swipe at Gen Welsh in there.

Shout out to Marty and Trident. Call them, seriously, even if you think they can't help you out. As a product of the public school system of the south, I always get confused talking to financial types. Marty spent about 15 mins on the phone with me giving me some solid financial advice that even I could understand. It was very obvious he wanted what was best for me and my family. I will be doing business with them as soon as I get my pcs location nailed down.

Hey Marty, I called Around today about refinancing my VA into a 30 year conventional. With excellent credit I am getting quoted at 4.5% (no points) and about $2300 in fees. Are you in the conventional business too or just VAs? Does that sound reasonable to you?

Question for the masses. Getting ready to PCS and want to free-up my VA loan eligibility which is tied up in a house that is being rented. With appraisal I have 20%+ equity. Can I refi that VA loan into a conventional with no pmi and then use my va for another house?

Can I do the pt test as a female and then transition back after lunch?

Or that he won't still do it...

At least you admit you are mediocre.... That's the first step I hear... Kidding!

Dude... wow. March? That's crazy.

She took giving head to a whole new meaning.

As long as you are world wide deployable, you can press with PC, even if on an exemption on your PFT.

I would say very likely. Just like guys who go to AETC somehow find themselves ping ponging back to it time and time again.

From the guys in my class who went RPAs they told me that they were constantly bombarded by leadership to recat and told doom and gloom on how they would be so far behind they would never catch up to their peers and probably be passed over as a result. I can imagine being told that for 3 years would take its toll.

It's cyclical. We are back to 2008-2010 all over again. We are going to flood T-38s with more studs and send them to all sorts of other non-CAF assignments. The only difference I see is there will still be lots of fighters dropped. More and more casuals sitting BIT waiting for B course dates. We've been here before guys. Maybe this time they won't turn the fighter pipeline off for 3 years and then wonder where the f$ck all the 11Fs have gone. Last night I was worried they were going to non-Vol a dude into fighters at ENJJPT... It was close.

That sounds pretty reasonable. Not sure about the 7 days but I can ask my buddy who is suffering as the Wing Exec on Monday.

Bluedevil, can't answer the first question but I can give everyone a data point for Palace Chase. Had an 11B guy in my squadron get turned down inside of 1 year from the end of his UPT ADSC. He did not have a hire letter though.

Whether he is or isn't a "somebody" in the AF, he embodies a lot of what I have heard our Senior "Leadership" say over the past decade. And dammit it feels good to just yell at the guy...

Agreed. Time to delete the thread. Glad to have you running. Hope you can bring some sanity to government.!

Yeah. That's what I am seeing too. Adam, good on you bro for stepping up and trying to get into office. We need more dudes like you. Our representatives have completely betrayed the people who have fought to put them in office. The blowback you are feeling from this thread is related to the strange assortment of patches you assembled to represent yourself to the uninformed. We who have been there done that will always seek to validate those who use their service as a platform to higher office. Those who are part of the brotherhood have nothing to fear, those who are using the blood of our brothers to push themselves forward when they themselves haven't served... Watch out. - I have currently consumed 4 crown and cokes... Judge accordingly.

Or the mangina. We need to be PC about this viper154...

AWACS works with ENJJPT? Since when? Not when I was a stud or during IP tour that I can recall...
