  1. 2 It would not be wise to tell the OG you don’t like his policy, when your main concern is with how the policy is impacting your private venture. Are you really that worried about PIT studs quality of housing? I imagine you are only as concerned as required to keep your house full on a regular basis. Like with many things in life, it really appears to be about the bottom line. I understand your irritation but don’t think it is a valid argument to take to the OG. There will still certainly be folks with Non-A that will require a place to stay, perhaps just not as many as you are used to. While I don’t think you should take this to the OG, I do hope things work out for you in the long run.
  2. So he is encouraging people to be rebellious...as long as you follow the rules? Good grief...
  3. LL100, I'm an insturctor at the FTU. Like everyone else has said, we don't control what drops. ACC in conjunction with AFPC establish that. The wait right now is generally pretty short before you start class for most crew positions. Incidentally, we just started teaching the Brits this month, so if you where to get here by summer, there is pretty good chance you'll be training along side them.
  4. Author Stephen King to Pay for Troops' Holiday Trip Home Sunday, December 13, 2009 BANGOR, Maine — Author Stephen King and his wife are donating money so 150 soldiers from the Maine Army National Guard can come home for the holidays. King and his wife, Tabitha, who live in Bangor, are paying $13,000 toward the cost of two bus trips so that members of the 3rd Battalion, 172nd Infantry Unit can travel from Camp Atterbury in Indiana to Maine for Christmas . The soldiers left Maine last week for training at Camp Atterbury. They are scheduled to depart for Afghanistan in January. Julie Eugley, one of King's personal assistants, told the Bangor Daily News that the Kings were approached about giving $13,000. But Stephen King thought the number 13 was a bit unlucky, so the couple pitched in $12,999 instead. Eugley chipped in $1 to make for an even $13,000. Here's to you Mr. King.
  5. I guess Pershing was able to successfully rehabilitate that 50th terrorist. Good for him!
  6. “Saudi Arabia has been praised for having one of the most well-developed terrorist rehabilitation programs in the world.” Had never heard this before. The Betty Ford Clinic must have opened a Terrorist Rehabilitation center in Saudi Arabia. Interesting article though. A crafty terrorist nearly took out a Saudi Prince. Al Qaeda Claims Responsibility for Attack That Injured Saudi Prince
  7. They are trying to play up the history of the 379th from WWII. Interesting history, but it doesn't undo the gayness of the deid.
  8. I had several Great Great Great Great (I think that is enough) Grandfathers in the Civil War - Both Sides Grandfather - Navy Signalman WWII - South Pacific Grandfather - Army Supply Sergeant WWII Italy / Finance Troop Korea Cousin - Army Sergeant - Medic - Iraq Cousin - Army MP Unlce - Air Force 0-6 Security Forces Uncle - Air Force 0-4 AC Mainanance - Helped to put together the intial B-2 Maintanance program Father - E-1 to O-7 - Served Army/Navy/Army Guard I'm the first flyer from my family. Service tends to be in one's blood, as seems to be very clear by this thread.
  9. It's probably going to be rough for you if you are expecting "better treatment". You have earned your wings - Great - but you are not qualified in any MWS. And as far as most are concerned, you are still in "student status". Soon you will be off to your FTU schoolhouse for a while, and probably a few other schools as well. Then, when you finally get assigned to your unit, you will be THE NEW GUY. There, your job will be to continue to learn and get better at what you do. Eventually, down the road, after some deployments and gained experience, you might find yourself a part of "the club". Nothing is written in stone. Everyone's experience with "the club" is different.
  10. It is possible to PCS to Mildenhall or Kadena. Slots are limited, but there are some. For an RC-135 EWO, expect to spend an initial 5 to 7 years at Offutt before you PCS. Then there is a very good chance you'll be back again. When you get to Randolph, there will be plenty of instructors from all platforms. Ask them questions, they can help you get a better idea of the mission, lifestyle, deployments, etc.
  11. We are not trying to withhold information from you, but we're not going to just freely share it here either. It is true that on occasion the Air Force has allowed reporters on the jet. That is a decision that the Air Force has made and it was done under the supervision of appropriate individuals. And just because the Air Force has allowed reporters on the jet on occasion in the past, does not mean that we are going to give you everything that you missed. It is unfortunate that your editor failed to send you, but we're not just going to hand over the specs or confirm what you've seen or know about the jet. That is great that you have the layout of the EP-3, but that doesn't really make a difference for us. You may think it is not a big deal. Due to the nature of the mission, I'm a little sensitive about my jet, as I am sure others are as well. I'm sure you will get another chance and hopefully you can push for your editor to send you. We are not trying to burn you, just look out for ourselves. Busdriver hit the nail on the head.
  12. Here are two news segments from FOX News that are Air Force approved. You can see the interior in several of their shots. No disrespect to Jacko, but lets not get into too much detail here.
  13. Do they think your stache is going to bring disgrace to our community? There isn't much left for them to take away from us anymore.
  14. Is this going to be put into action soon, or is this still projected? I'm aircrew showing up for a 150 next week.
