Questions on ribbons/medals
I misspoke. I meant SURF. vMPF reflects all decorations.

Questions on ribbons/medals
Sister Service medals will be displayed in your personnel records (SURF), provided they are "individually achieved" medals, ArComs, etc. vMPF will reflect all of the decorations. To caveat Nunya's advice, I'd walk it over and stare down FSS and watch him enter it into your records. I've more than once had to chase down a medal or OPR/EPR for someone and it's just sitting literally on a file cabinet for weeks. Or a stack of CRMs returned for corrections that were forgotten about for 3 months for a simple Paragraph citation error. Don't trust, and verify.

Drone Pilots: We Don’t Get No Respect
The info in the FTU thread (https://www.flyingsquadron.com/forums/topic/18898-rpa-school-at-holloman/ is still fairly accurate

Whoa, hold up chief. Your specialty seems to be more in shoe-clerkery. Who let GC post in a non-Personnelist thread?

What's wrong with the Air Force?
"Soon" in a bureaucratic sense means "at a glacial pace". You might see a 3 or 4-star from cyber before you're dead. How long have ICBMs/Space been a part of the AF?

What's wrong with the Air Force?
I think it shows the AF's evolution from Nuke Bomber Command to the 21st Century and the strategic importance of Space (and Cyber soon too)

A) Nothing AMC tracks on O's surprises me anymore 2) The PFA has more military applicability than the DLAB- U-2 Dragonlady info

I know a current AF Reservist who swears he got passed over in the Corps as a Capt due to not having a high enough belt in a martial art. I want to say mauve, maybe it was purple. Regardless, ask him what he wants to get passed over for; not having your Master's or a teal belt in Judo. But the training at Pensacola and Whiting Field is very nice, location wise and much more relaxed than formal release at UPT. The majority of pilot slot are involved in the CAF, but as helo pilots. Sooooo, he's got to pick his poison. Both have LIMFACS. Go with his gut and don't look back. He'll enjoy either.- Aviation Continuation Pay (ACP - The Bonus)
- What happened to the JQP Toxic Leadership Posts?
Ah I figured, I wasn't really following either of them. It isn't the first time, it just happened when the other thread disappeared at the same time.- What happened to the JQP Toxic Leadership Posts?
What happened to the JQP posts about 18 AF and toxic leadership? I used the search function and it showed in the results, but then the link returned an error code for not found. I wasn't really looking for it, but noticed it was missing. Is it an error or was it removed intentionally? Edit: The pilot's detainment post from the Sq Bar was also removed. Is it a permanent suspension or a 2-min penalty?- Harrison Ford Successfully Lands Malfunctioning Aircraft
