What's wrong with the Air Force?

[Lawman]

It never ceases to amaze me, over generations of aviators who come and go on this platform:  You all live and die by standards in the airplane, yet many of you rail against standards outside of the plane.  Professionalism MUST exist in both realms, or it starts to exist in neither.  Gen Allvin understands this.  Get on board for the sake of the lives of your aviators…please.

There is an entire difference between “Standards” and “meaningless hills to die on invented by some shoe clerk to give their career/position purpose.”

The inability by senior leadership to even acknowledge that both are going on throughout ranks and services is exactly the kind of shit that causes you and others to stand dumbfounded at your warfighters and tactical leaders not simply toe the line because some anointed E9 from the second group tells you, “we’ve got a problem with discipline.”


Stop inventing stupid standards and crush anybody that does so we can spend the energy on enforcement of standards where it god damn matters, Sir. The next time some E8/9 is doing uniform spot checks I’m going to make them conduct a log book recon because that will actually get somebody killed and is the job those crew dawgs are here to do, and they can in fact do it while wearing white socks *gasp/horror.

If you wear a morale patch or a friday shirt, you'll clearly not follow the TO, the plane will crash and babies will die.

Somebody should double down on this stupid just to force the boss on it.

“Sir the OR rate is what it is, and you see from the training slides we are severely under glide for the flying hour program. Sir, this being Friday I was hoping to conduct an early release of the troops. We did an in ranks inspection and their socks are all the approved color.”
