  1. Wait, I got it! Rated retention! If we don't have so many staffs, we don't have to man them, and all those non-command track O-4 and O-5 IPs can go back to flying the line!!
  2. Unsettling is the right phrase.
  3. Since it's TI, I'm assuming his use of the term "disable" is in the technical sense, as in "disable the equipment"....YGBSM....we're living in straight up 1984. Double plus ungood
  4. So let’s not address the real causes. Overworked, under resourced, constant pressure to do more with less, ops tempo that’s higher than it was when we were actually fighting a war…nope, overnight beer sales are the cause.
  5. Agreed. I just wish we weren't giving away everything now, with none of the replacement capes expected to be on the ramp in maybe even this decade.
  6. That's exactly the mindset of our brass right now, though. Ref. F-15C, AWACS, JSTARS, and A-10 retirements.
  7. Didn't see it before....can't unsee it now 😑
  8. Aircrew and missile crews coming down with all kinds of nasty cancers
  9. Well?? Inquiring minds want to know!
  10. Who let the pinko commie in here?
  11. So you’re not mature enough to make an informed decision to smoke now until 21 because nanny state, can still enlist and get killed in a foreign land at 18, but you can make a rational informed decision about the future of the country at 16…brilliant…what were we saying about mental disorders?
  12. The thing that has me scratching my head is Trump’s vice grip on the evangelical vote. This is a guy who cheated on his wife with a porn star, then paid a bunch of hush money to cover it up…yet the evangelical right worships and adores the ground he walks on. Completely incongruous.
  13. Now what if we put them in some kind of tornadic delivery system…🤔
  14. 9th BS/CC fired Two months in, and axed.
  15. New Vice Chief: Slife Nominated for USAF’s No. 2 Job (airandspaceforces.com) Saw this in the morning news blast
  16. Sir! Mission readiness, retention, and the political leadership are PRETTY DARN GOOD…SIR! 🫡
  17. Theoretically…what is a first sergeant gonna do if all the pilots/booms in the squadron choose to ignore their complaint and wear morale shirts anyway?
  18. Ok, Paul Harvey, what’s the rest of that story?
  19. There's a whole generation of Buff dudes/dudettes who did their Lt/Capt time doing six months on Guam at a stretch, and were on staff/IDE/whatever during the OIR days. Like you said...obvious exceptions. I will say, the jet getting blood on her beak again did wonders for the community, even if it was just playing ISIS whack-a-mole.
  20. This is my surprised face...😑
  21. Dude, I know some active duty units doing this.
  22. Never pass up the opportunity to STFU
  23. That’s AF-speak for “you’re about to get hosed”…
  24. Sounds like a widespread outbreak of sudden gravity poisoning is imminent
  25. Bunch of Buff types with fucked up backs. Same parachute setup as the T-38, and longer duration sorties. I had to get an X-ray for something else recently, and the radiologist noted I had "multi-level spinal degeneration"....yaaaay!
