Tacking on stripes is now considered hazing, even pretending to do so. Para 3.5

Seen a fair point on a FB page "if tacking on stripes is now hazing, how long until fini-flight spray downs are considered hazing as well"

Figured as much. Going to be a rough times ahead...I just made it to RND and won't hit IFT until apr-jun next year. Pipeline is so jacked right now.

Yes. The intial group of 18x guys are up, and all the manned tour guys are on the 18 VMLs to PCS back manned. We have 11 or 12 dudes I a squadron of 40 ish pilots with commitments expiring or 11s returning to manned flight.
What's the retention rate looking like for the 18Xs?

Thanks guys appreciate the info...tried to update post as wording came across wrong. Didn't mean would I promote, obviously that's a decade away and things change. More of would I have the opportunity to compete and from everything I'm seeing it's a yes. Appreciate the insight.

Not to derail thread but have a legit question. Was selected under 16OT04 board to commission as an RPA pilot (I know, I know) will have 12 yrs enlisted TIS by my OTS grad date. Rough math says I wouldn't hit a Major board until 21yrs total TIS. Realistic chance of making it if I do what I need to? Or would board not even consider because of TIS? Regs I looked at were vague and didn't really address prior E promotions with one exception. What are your interpretations or opinions....other than run as fast as I can from RPAs....thanks.

Do you know where I can find the AIB report? A quick Google search didn't turn it up. I was a controller in the RAPCON the day this happened and wanted to see what the investigation has to say. Thanks.
