I’m from the south so I can’t really put into words well what I’m trying to say. I think if anyone makes us a better fighting force then we need to make a way for them the be a part of the team. If they need exceptions to make that happen then we need to look at the reg and ask “why was this an issue to not wear headgear or have beards?” If we come to the conclusion that it was just a rule we made up for the sake of uniformity, maybe we just eliminate the rule altogether. Then woila, no exception is needed because now a well groomed beard is uniformly acceptable (i.e. the German military). But the military is not a social experiment and if it comes to the conclusion that someone being in the military is not in the military’s best interest (a paraplegic fighter pilot), then I would say, thank you for your offer of service, let’s find somewhere better suited for that service.

Bro... Totally missed what I’m saying. I’m not arguing against religious accommodation. I’m more arguing that if we are cool letting some people wear beards then let’s wear beards. I just think we need to stop having a million exceptions and just set a minimum acceptable standard, from dress and appearance to pt testing. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

I never thought that I would be on Baseops arguing with people about such a common sense issue. Y’all have fun, enjoy your VO2 max of whatever the fcvk it is. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

My whole point is what’s the point in having different standards for different groups? That’s not a standard by definition. I have no issues with beards as long as that is the “standard”. I’m not ready to die on this hill, but I just think we need to have some blanket standards in place and not try and have a million different rules for a million different people.

So if turbans and beards don’t affect combat readiness or have a negative effect on the force, again I ask, why not just have one standard for all? Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

If you’ve been in the Air Force for longer than 15 mins, you realize that standards for men and women are way different and it goes way beyond the PT test. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

Same on making it my full time job till corrected. Expect them to just start garnishing wages until they pay off your “debt” had it happen to me as a young Lt, with no money, student loans and a newborn. Went to my Commander who said, “that sucks, you should of had an emergency fund” UFB. On a related note, I have $11k in Guard pay still due to me from 2019 that hasn’t paid out yet. It’s amazing how difficult they make these things. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

I say if they let them wear beards, we should all be allowed to wear beards. I also believe in one standard PFT for men and women. Special jobs can set their own standards that fit with their requirements. Blanket minimum standard across the service. No more catering to special interest groups, either it meets standards or not. If the standards aren’t applicable anymore then don’t make exceptions to policy, just change the fcvking standard. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

Try to find a unit with ONE alpha alert. USERRA Exempt orders and a pretty awesome deal depending on the unit. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

Do you like anal? Not giving, but receiving. With no lube. And kind of like a hate screw kind of way. Not tenderly and sensual, but like a step below rape. But in all seriousness active duty is not all bad. Some of it was actually pretty fun and I met the best people that I could ever meet. But if I had the option of doing active duty are going to the air National Guard or reserves, I would pick the air National Guard or reserves any day. Being on a 12 year prison sentence and unable to say no or leave is about the worst feeling you can have. Especially if your family situation changes between now and then. You just never know what your life is going to be like 12 years down the road. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

Any new Traditional bonuses for Guard guys? Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

Ha ha. I didn’t realize that was a hot topic item. Thanks for the tip! At my Guard base everyone wears them. Just to be clear this is for those times I’m out in the system or deployed. I’m at one of the few remaining “old guard” units and no one here cares about stupid stuff like that. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

So what are E-9s out doing these days as part of the OCP flightsuit uniform police? I miss getting Chiefed ever since I started wearing the two-piece a couple days a week. With the green bag I used to get talked to for rolling up my sleeves until that became legal again, so then I started leaving both lower cap pockets unzipped, but that didn’t seem to catch any E-9s outside of Maxwell. Somebody please help me out. I don’t know how much longer I can go without being “mentored”. I’m really starting to wonder if they care about me anymore.

Columbus is not bad at all. There is stuff to do around there and some decent cities within driving range. Just thank God you aren’t at Laughlin. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

Having seen enough of OSI’s shenanigans in my time, my biggest fear is ever being in their gunsights. I’ve had the pleasure of working with them as a DO and also watching the aftermath through a court-martial. Good God. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
