I wonder if we are destined to go down this train track in the near future. https://www.infowars.com/innocent-college-student-subject-to-restraining-order-for-resembling-alleged-rapist/ For the quick synopsis: a young man attending college in Oregon has basically been ordered by university administrators to avoid a female student simply due to the fact that he resembles her rapist from a few months earlier. From the article: “(He) was ordered to stay away from a fellow student (cutting him off from his housing, his campus job, and educational opportunity) — all because he reminded her of the man who had raped her months before and thousands of miles away,” she said. Choosing to persecute him based solely on the feelings of another, college officials subjected the male student to near-impossible guidelines. The incident represents the disturbing and growing implementation of politically correct viewpoints, which favor mere feelings over facts, logic and the rights of others.

So, on the news today, it showed clips of Gen. Welsh and the rest of the Chiefs talking on the Hill about ending sequestration. Something he said really caught my attention, that "if the B-17 was flying in the 1st Gulf War, it would've been younger than three of our aircraft flying right now. The B-52, the KC-135, and ..." (Can't remember the last one he mentioned). I guess I just never really thought about how aged some of our fleet had become. EDIT: Autocorrect corrections.

Just keep on trucking dude. Ask for feedback from the board to find out where you can improve yourself in the interviews. I interviewed 13 times before getting selected, and I wasn't even the primary guy. The primary guy fell out at Brooks and then I got the call. If this is what you want to do with your life, do absolutely everything you can to better yourself for the next set of interviews. It sounds like you don't have issues getting them.

Nickel on the grass...

We had the option of staying on base and eating DFAC Thanksgiving dinner, or getting to go off base and stay with a local family for Thanksgiving. 99.9% of the dudes went off base. The majority of people you stay with are current or prior military. I stayed with a dude that was there doing ACSC in residence. A day off the compound drinking beer and whiskey was well worth it.

I'm not a Silverback or a Grey Beard by any stretch of the word, but I am curious to see what the Squadron dynamic will become in the next 10-15 years as the "Entitlement Generation" begins to permeate throughout the ranks en masse.

Dude, seriously?!? This has been answered ad nauseam in the Pilot Selection Process thread and the What are my Chances? thread.

Nickel on the grass... Flew with Tracer at IFF. Class dude. A damn shame.

Big 2 on W.O. Wrights. Good drinks and pretty good wing selection. As an addition, the Fox and Hound routinely has Dave Chappelle stop by Tuesday nights, or rather Wednesday morning, around 1am (from what we were told). Didn't get to Ops Test it, but we ran into him at 2am at The Pub the following night/morning.

I don't know why everyone is so upset. This is obviously the best choice for Immigration control.

I earned a slot as a 1Chuck. However, I never deployed as I got picked up as soon as I finished Tech School. Can't really offer too much info about the job post tech school, but if you have any questions about Basic, Tech School, or the pilot thing in general, shoot me a PM. I'll try to offer any advice I can.

I'd say if you have the means and really want better vision, not just as a means to get a pilot slot, then do it. Best case, you score an interview and get selected. By the time it takes for your packet to go through NGB and get dates for your FCI, you would probably be very close to being over the wait period. Deaddebate can correct if needed, but I thought you had to have a minimum of 6 months between surgery and your FCI.

Maybe the class registrar?

Capital, State, and Magnolia are all on base. Audobon Cove is an off base location. If you are looking for on base, the Cove is a non-factor.

Really? Although with some of the shit they were throwing around in their monthly newsletter, it's not too far out of the realm of possibilities. Eh, 'em. Stay somewhere else.

Audobon Cove was pretty nice. Lots of studs so there were always places to drink and it was an easy walk back to your own house. Pool was great in the summertime but management changed halfway through my time there, and they got a little more strict with drinking at the pool.

It should be about $400 when all said and done if you don't find a used one. Little nugget of info, try and find a way to borrow someone's 2d Lt shoulder boards. There is no good reason to buy a set of $46 boards when you are only going to have them for 2 years. I saw mixed at AMS. I was on Title 10, while I saw a lot of people on Title 32. Not sure if it was related to this or not, but everyone that was going for a rated slot was on Title 10 while some of the other people going for Mx Officer/Wx Officer were on Title 32, but YMMV.

Yes remove your Prior E rank. You wear OC rank on your collar if you are in a leadership position.

Applewood Smoked Bacon with a nice line of fat on the meat is the way to go. Cut it up before into pieces before adding.

Math: The Easy Way was money for me in the math section: https://books.google.com/books/about/Math_the_Easy_Way.html?id=G7iWwKNE0DAC You may be able to find a .pdf version online as well.

So I'm sitting here re-watching The Pacific on HBO and wanted to know if anyone had read the two memoirs that it was primarily based on, and if they are worth the read. With the Old Breed:At Peleliu and Okinawa by Eugene Sledge Helmet For My Pillow by Robert Leckie

My intel unit kept me up to date as to when things were sent away and processed.

Mine was similar. Began the process end of June '13, interview end of July '13, and was adjudicated 15 Oct '13.

Thoughts and prayers. https://www.cnn.com/2013/10/23/us/vintage-plane-crashes-texas/index.html I almost went for a ride this past weekend when I was in Galveston visiting the wife's family.
