Your last paragraph is most important; like any group of people, most Russians are nice people who desperately want to be like the West and hate their government. You see it all over Europe with Russian expats. Oh and they tend to be strongly pro capitalist as they have seen first hand what the alternative does to a country.

I’ll never understand why they won’t. The older you get the harder it is to run, impact exercises take a toll on the joints. A bike or swim option would make sense in a service where most people will never have to run as part of their operational job. It makes sense so it will never happen.

The same POS that embarrassed the U.S. on the international stage with our humiliating withdrawal from Afghanistan and still has a job. Too busy making extremism in the military videos.

Dude, no one is advocating eliminating aid to Ukraine. What we are asking for is to not give them a blank check, maybe an audit/accountability like any other major expenditure. Let’s not forget the corruption problems in Ukraine throughout recent history. Also let’s not forget NATO…Britain and Germany have made several contributions but many nations are just strap hanging.

She left the Democratic Party and most of what she says makes sense. No one knows what Kinzinger believes in besides himself.

I bet he was a real gem to work with in the Flying Squadron. On the other hand, my buddy has some peers who were in Tulsi’s Army unit and say she was always a pleasure to work with.

We absolutely should help Ukraine along with assure NATO and defend the Eastern Flank. Perhaps many are questioning the notion of sending blank checks to Ukraine (with no audit mechanism) indefinitely without a larger overarching strategy?

Queen Karen!

FIFY.

RUMINT that SECAF has announced through AFPC that AADs are going to be unmasked for 0-4 and O-5 promotion boards starting CY23…anyone else heard similar?

Absolutely, AMC’s culture has really changed recently, largely thanks to Mini. Young cats are in the vault more than ever and excited about planning and executing challenging profiles and exercises. Thank god because INDOPACOM presents a logistical challenge like no other, EUCOM would be no cake walk either. There are still your AMC careerists and your toxic old hats who scoff at anything more challenging than SKE VIS PRO..but I’m really impressed and optimistic with the way the community is headed.

We still deploy to CENTCOM, because that command gets whatever it wants regardless of OPSTEMPO, my old Sq is doing training exercises and Dubai Airshows. Wouldn’t call Dubai highlife “bored,” but makes you think if resources could be used wiser.

The German Government here has total control over people’s lives, and they just roll over and take it STS. God what short memories these people have…

DeSantis won Miami Dade county which is traditionally both heavily Blue and Hispanic. I don’t think Democrats can count on Hispanics anymore. The days of taking for granted token minorities is over for the far left.

Thank you for making the case of having a limited government, and a constitution that limits the power of elected officials..almost like our founding fathers intended. The RNC didn’t chose Trump, Trump chose the RNC. Trump was a reaction to years of condescending and elitist behavior from Obama and his like who only cared about costal metropolises and Chicago. Most Americans want a government that leaves them the hell alone and protects/values American ideals. Trump spoke to that crowd. But yes, time for him to go, way too toxic. A DeSantis or Haley ticket would revive the Republicans.

Leftists: “We should be more like Europe!” Leftists when they learn about most European country’s abortion laws: “….” Leftists: “We should be more like Japan, no one is allowed to own guns!” Leftists when they learn about Japan’s strict immigration laws: “….”

He is senile and has been showing signs of dementia. Making up false memories is one of the symptoms of dementia. While he always was, and will always be a douche, shame on his handlers for stringing and dragging him along. This is elder abuse plain and simple. He should have resigned years ago.
-
I don’t think Republicans will just let Trump run as a 3rd Party. They will make whatever deal they would have to. That would be a real shitty situation. Another reason we should have rank/preferential voting instead of winner takes all.

Former and Current Military Pilots: Complete this Statement
dream big replied to DeltaMike17's topic in General Discussion
Yepp, left a drunk loadmaster behind once at bus time (we had two for this mission and only needed one to get home). Commander had my back. -
California doing California things. I feel sorry for everyone that lives East of I-5.

His handlers don’t

Every POTUS and their administration shares the blame in our failed Afghanistan strategy. The NEO, and leaving Americans and Allies behind, happened under the current administration.
-
I would love them to first and foremost investigate our abject failure that was the withdrawal from Afghanistan.
-
Man this is going to make Biden’s proposed 37 Billion Dollar aid package to Ukraine all the more interesting.

Sounds like a great opportunity for Ron DeSantis. There was a Red Wave…in Florida. Now granted the population is probably swayed by the retirees but a ton of young Latinos voted conservative as well.
