    They are missing WHY dudes are disgruntled. I've been around a long time, as you have. There have certainly been boom and bust cycles for morale. This one is far different than what I think can f

  • Yes...and shockingly, got picked up 1 APZ with a 5/10 push line and P on the PRF. Sometimes there is justice in the system.

You need to relax and lay off the downrange "rip it's." Nobody is getting spun up over an Excellent rating for an ORI. It was a simple question that requires a yes or no answer. Since my CC or me will have to change HVI to terrorist and VBIED to bomb if they are used in my PRF, the question about the ORI rating came to mind.

If you want ORI Excellent in your PRF, draft up an MFR with the facts and have the commander sign it. If he thinks its worthy of the ink and effort, you can have your excellent. If not, then he/she doesn't think it will affect your outcome (that's what I think). Now if you earned some special ORI recognition, that's worth something.

Enjoy writing your PRF, many of today's generals wrote their own back in the day.

Can't do that. Read the reg champ posted.

Why is this do difficult?

Your Wg/CC is full of shit. Or the 3-star that briefed last year's ACSC residence class that they were directed to mask the AAD for the future O-4 boards is full of shit.

Back off my WG/CC ThreeHoler. You have never met the man so don't judge him. He was a great SQ/CC to me and now he is an awesome WG/CC. BLUF: He cares about his people and takes care of his enlisted and officers alike.

Slow down there slick. You can't leave the rest of the story out. He also sent the clear message that even if AADs are masked in the future, he still thinks they are extremely important. To the point where I and others around me took it to mean that he "won't consider it in the rack and stack, but will consider it." It was one hell of a party line speech.

Huh. I listened to the CSAF himself last week say that the fact that senior raters are considering masters degrees for the major's board is "insane." He went on to say that a masters degree should only be required for O-6.

He didn't reference a particular promotion board level (Maj/Lt Col). He said a lot of the people who did not get promoted at our base was because of not having an AAD.

Sounds like insubordination to me.

How many of those got a P vs a DP from that same WG/CC? That's the real issue. Your chances to promote decline significantly with a P, the WG/CC determines who gets what (DP/P) on their PRF. All the board sees is the recommendation from your base and then look at the supporting data. No AAD and a P is pretty much the kiss of death. Just saying, your WG/CC is the problem not the lack of the AAD if he's not giving DP's to people because they don't have an AAD.

On a side not, my WG/CC recently addressed many of us here about the next O-4 board and made the statements that CSAF policy is not to require AAD and you should only do SOS corr if you don't go in residence. Many left there with a smile feeling like the CSAF finally made an impact. A week or so later an "email" from my SQ/CC clarified policy and that is that to be competitive for SOS in res you must complete it in corr. It also went on to say similar things about competitiveness and the AAD.

Which is it? This sh!ts gotten out of control.

Weird...it used to always be so clear.

Nothing new here, folks. I've heard of lots of great ideas, but don't bank on anything that seems too good to be true because in a few years when there's a new CSAF, it will all swing back in the other direction. All of a sudden those things we didn't need to do will be required once again, and folks are going to scramble to get them done.

Can't do that. Read the reg champ posted.

Well crap. I wonder what I should do with this MFR I got some years ago and used on PRFs. Rip it up? Nah, I think I'll use it again, just because I can.

Are you his exec or something? Give it a rest dude.

No shit. Slick, I bet 6-9 bucks you are his GMBL exec and work on your gag reflex at least twice a week. Maybe he's a good dude maybe not, but I have news for you: no one makes WG/CC these days without at least putting it in their mouth for a little bit. AMF is right, WG/CCs have 100% control over who gets the guaranteed promotion (DPs vs Ps) so any gripe about AADs being a go/no-go starts with him.

No one cares enough to contact your WG/CC to call him out, what planet do you live on? Did you have the balls to contact Gen Schwartz to call BS on Blues Mondays and the importance of AADs, challenging him with "words and evidence" to support your claims? No, you didn't. Worse yet, maybe all your evidence made you think that stuff was a good idea...

BLUF, stop acting like such a :rainbow: .

There is no line here Fucktard, I'm not even sure who is who, get over yourself.

I did like reading GC and Liquids posts, nothing I didn't expect, but good to read anyway. Still not sure how we solidified exactly who they were, but maybe I'm slow.

Slick, we appreciate your insight.

That's pretty cool that your Wg/CC picked you out of the "mission support" group to be his exec. I'll bet the hours were a little different than those you had become accustomed to, clearly being a shoe and all.

Let me be the first to say, I don't care what color or sexuality the man or woman next to me is while serving stateside or downrange. You calling me a "f%g" by posting the rainbow flag in this forum really crosses the line. You can't be an "O" in the Air Force by what you just posted. I thought people stopped using that terminology in the second grade. Or maybe someone who got passed over takes the time to post something like that here. What's next, a Nazi symbol?

Wow...just wow. You are applying SAPR logic: straight line from profanity to rapist. We all saw the slide. Maybe Slick wrote it.

Dude stop taking yourself so seriously, no one else does.

. . . Gayness. . .

What exactly is your motive for posting here?

Edited by osulax05

Slick, you are a piece of work. I'm sure the airmen and officers you supervise are well aware.

Thanks for getting things back on track and Stolelt, I saw that movie. Totally made me laugh. It just bothers me because I have airmen and officers I supervise. I'm not saying you can't say what you want here, but think before you post something that a young airman or officer might see on this forum. How can you tell an airman or officer to visit this website when you are trying to use a slur and make it funny?

Back to regularly scheduled PRF GK.
