So.....when you all retire you can tell grand stories to your kids (and MOAA). ATIS (Dare I say: Fly Navy)

My eyes see: Second round sent from store owner's .45 went low and hit the glass. The first .45 round fired hit true sending Suspect #1 stumbling backwards (looks to be DUHTF, Dead Upon Hitting The Floor). ATIS

Anyone catch the dog/wolf in the Blade Runner trailer? Blade Runner is by far the top of the Sci Fi heap IMO, just hope it's better than Ford's flying has been recently. Atomic Blonde (not the one I live with) and DP2: I'll be watching those without the wife unit unfortunately. Her loss. ATIS

At the risk of pissing off the single seat folks in the room, this statement is very short sighted. Two cubes of ice....or just one, tough choice tonight. ATIS

My most humble and heartfelt apology, I should have been more clear. I meant to say the Naval Aviators that manned the U-28 [CSO position] when it first came into your inventory, for at least 3+ years, until the first USAF blue suit CSO came into the TOC (very sharp dude I might add). Namaste ATIS

Need to call in the Navy. Sure worked well for the U-28 till it turned all-blue. ATIS

Ugly is an understatement. I was only a newbie in the service...but I saw carnage at the 0-3/0-4 level at Oceana and some other places. Many civilian lawyers contacted and back door meetings in the JOPA keeping tabs on the agents moving about the base...it was very interesting times. ATIS

So there I was..... Of course our worlds are/were different. Even inside that world, stack players were different. I've got hundreds of stories of every T/M/S that fly in the stack Call "Clara" on the ball and lets avoid a flaming dialog on F-16/CAS/DA support.? ATIS

+1 for Gold Dot....in any caliber. If you are shooting a .357 short barrel, 38SPCL +P are the way to go (IMO). Cheers ATIS

For those who graduated from the Zoom....any truth to this? https://opslens.com/2017/01/17/usafa-training-pc-culture-obama-administration/ Cheers ATIS

Holy Fuking Grasshopper I want to punch a kitten right now. ATIS

I can't agree with this comment more. ~1900 hours flying the U28 from the day tail 419 showed up on the ramp as a CSO (my service component at the time didn't make a difference), the close quarters of the crew coupled with the limited capes we had (compared to the latest variant of the bird), internal verbal and non-verbal comms were a daily part of life and vastly improved our on station performance. Myself and a good "nerd" were always in constant non-verbal comms when we were on the hunt. Very effective. I've also seen and worked with multi-single seat players that could make stuff happen in our unique use cases (both in my time flying Navy and in the Hurby unit). The argument cuts both ways, there is no one answer. Cheers ATIS

Gentlemen...Please Please... Stay on Target.

I really need some Caskmates while reading this. Whoa...look at what just landed in the glass next to my computer. Please....continue. Cheers (and Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays/whatever other holiday greeting is out there for masses). ATIS

Glad I don't live in that state anymore: "On the West Coast, gun owners in California will face new restrictions after Gov. Jerry Brown signed a law banning the purchase of semiautomatic rifles with so-called “evil features.” The “evil features” include pistol grips, flash hiders and bullet-buttons that make it easier to remove and replace ammunition magazines. The Los Angeles Times reported an increase in gun purchases in the lead-up to the Jan. 1 implementation." Full article: https://www.foxnews.com/politics/2016/12/27/weed-guns-and-catfish-2017-brings-new-laws-big-changes.html That man has probably never seen real "evil", and I hope he never does. I cry for this country sometimes. ATIS

Wow....look at those... Fins ATIS...out

"SHACK" Cheers ATIS

Daydreaming CCW. Inside the waist is they way I will go, just looking around at options. Glock 30 is probably what I would throw in the holster. ATIS

Crap...there are no windows in the basement... but plenty of PowerPoint rangers that need a bath. ATIS

I see so many of you as I walk down to the watch floor for my reserve duty. It's like watching people turn into zombies....but just super slowly. ATIS

Packers should have taken a knee in the 3rd quarter and called in a MEDEVAC 9-Line for themselves. ATIS
