McJay Pilot

Perhaps he’ll be permitted to “take the black” and finish his time in AFPAK Hands.

Don’t take the early option. Speaking from experience here.

Looks like news is reporting pilot and wso ejected, but didn’t make it. Damn. http://www.foxnews.com/us/2018/03/14/navy-fa-18-jet-crashes-off-key-west-official-tells-fox-news.html

So, how long do you think it will be before some of the regionals are hurting so bad for talent that they offer "buy-out" options to bonus takers?

I recall a young CSO friend at his first MLAT who kept leaving his OCP hat undefended. The result was a D-52 dropping DDAMS... it was impressive!

The MC-J comes with an awesome mission set, but a really high ops tempo. You're gone a lot, but you get to work with a lot of skilled folks across the SOF community.
