  1. That website feels like, “oh, crap...this is happening? Uhhh, copy-paste...copy-paste. Generic line about being under the secaf sts. Do we have a logo?”
  2. It’s a good thing AFPC is so good at this talent management thing that they won’t consider anyone else’s ideas.
  3. Pretty soon we’ll have a thread about paternity leave or lactation rights.
  4. Looks rendered.
  5. My lack of knowledge or SA in having called in CASEVAC 9 lines when brigade commanders couldn’t share? Yeah, ok.
  6. You know who suffers when one brigade commander won’t let “his” air assets assist the brigade next door? A ground commander.
  7. Just no. There’s a reason the air arm was taken away from the Army.
  8. Awesome stuff. Started working my way through the series.
  9. Naive? First off, as jazzdude alluded to, the Army understands aviation to work in the realm of one localized ground commander as his personal artillery (or what have you, based on type of aviation). They don’t play well across the entire AO, and it turns out most air platforms can go across a distance rather quickly and potentially be used to assist more than one ground commander in a somewhat efficient way by weighing priorities and current need instead of hoarding them like sandbox toys. Second, Lawman may have some experience in the matter. Bold call out.
  10. It’s all luck and timing, with increased probability because he’s a great dude.
  11. Scrolling on the Reserve side takes a couple months, so definitely start that process with a Reserve recruiter if it’s a Reserve unit. It will stay effective as long as you stay in the same rank when you transition.
  12. At least, since UPT 2.5 coincides with the halving of FTU training, while the ops squadrons bleed instructors...
  13. That’s not what you said.
  14. BS. I have zero fucks to give for active duty asshattery, but plenty for the mission. Choke yourself about this positive narrative BS; the world isn’t all roses.
  15. I think that’s where it’s key for flyers (probably det cc) to bring some of that knowledge/stories with them, if the AF isn’t going to help re relevance like you’re referencing. My Det CC was a F-111/F-117 guy, which I remember being a plus.
  16. Wait, how else would we know if “it’s their turn”?! Should also apply to TRBs in certain airframes along with “they need it for their PRF.”
  17. I’m over Grosjean because he’s a has been. Ocon was up for grabs this year, Hulkenburg is up for a seat...and you’re sticking with someone who is at the ceiling of their potential.
  18. Probably because it’s called Le Mans ‘66 everywhere else, really is more that story. They just retitled it for America because of marketing.
  19. Depends on the week.
  20. Yeah; It’s waterproof and actually fits under the harness.
  21. False. No rank.
  22. IndyCar make too many left turns.
  23. Buried last week on A16 on Turnberry Report: much ado about nothing.
