  6. + 2 more, USN Special Warfare, and USN Reserves. Pentagon fires heads of Navy Reserve, Naval Special Warfare Command No reason given in article, but there is that fine print "at the pleasure of the President" in the commissioning certificate.
  7. On 1st glance I’d agree, the whole thing seems a bit silly. I’m more curious who he pissed off. Said individual is very political and would do almost anything to get ahead. He used to keep 2 extra covers in his car as a Lt., one with an eagle on it and one with a star on it as a reminder/motivator for where he wanted to go.
  8. Nah they came from Ramstein I believe. This was a few years ago too
  9. I'm not sure which is dumber, getting upset that a bunch of people whose job is to murder foreigners having off-color jokes, or being dumb enough to put those off-colored jokes in a chat full of a bunch of commanders who would sell out their children to get the next promotion, much less a fellow commander telling a naughty joke...
  10. the same flag officers who lost two wars in the last 20 years? the same flag officers who claimed victory in afghanistan is "right around the corner!"? good riddance. show me any strategic success these generals have championed...GTFO
  11. nah dude it's cool...all those flag officers had TDS.
  12. In light of personal life changes… Is it possible for an AFRC pilot to take an assignment with an RPA unit for a few years and return to flying later down the road? I understand this would require attending RPA training and mission qual and then further training if I ever want to fly manned aircraft again.

  15. Hi all, I'm wondering if anyone who applied for the UPT slot for the 112th Fighter Squadron out of Toledo has heard anything back about interviews and/or next steps in that process? The application was due 8/4 so it's been almost three weeks. This is only the second place I've applied and the first one sent me a rush invite the day the application closed, so I don't know if it's normal for there to be a wait like this or if it's normal to not even receive a rejection. I did receive confirmation that my application was received but nothing since then. Appreciate any insight on this, thanks.
  16. My SOS flight all got athletic shirts with Dr Galazkiewicz on the back. Will always remember this commercial.
  17. True. Though, even suppressed, its still going to be at damaging levels. No reason to not.have a can on though.
  18. Sadly, I’ll still be deployed beyond the extended deadline so I have no way of accruing more hours before the deadline. It’s all good though. I’m not going to stress it at this point, because I literally can’t change any of it. The wing still thinks I have a competitive package, so we’ll see how it all plays out! Was your buddy by chance from Travis?
  19. Think the PSDM mentioned something about getting an extension to update flight hours if you’re deployed? Or something like that. In terms of strats, 2/2 is significantly different from getting 18/18 for example so I wouldn’t worry too much about it. I got a buddy who was 3/3 out of his wing and all 3 of them got a rated slot. Nice that you got your foot in the door at least!
  20. I’m not sure why my reply didn’t post but I’m typing it again. In my sq, we have instructor Lt’s so that’s weird your sq doesn’t have that. But, in my squadron there were about 5 that I believe submitted and I think all 5 made it to the wing. I did get confirmation that my package made it to the board so I’m hoping others did as well. As for the wing strat, I’d love to know how I did and I hate that this year it was changed to where the wing had to submit packages because it felt like once the package left the sq, it just went to a black hole. But at this phase I do believe that knowing how you did at the wing may be a moot point. If we’re meant to be picked up this year then we will, regardless of wing strats. After asking around I know how I did at the group, my sq cc told us, and I am assuming the rankings at the group could be similar to how we did at the wing since the group strat doesn’t go on the 215. Regardless, being rated already makes things super competitive and you gotta figure out how to make yourself stand out and FAA ratings beyond ppl can help because it seems like everyone has a ppl now a days. Anyways good luck to you and your peeps in your sq.
  21. Doesn't mean he didn't damage his cilia.
  22. I’ve been wondering the same thing. I was 2/2 at my Wing. The other applicant is/was(?) the Wing Exec, so there wasn’t much of a chance for anyone else to get that 1/2 strat. I think my SR rewrote his comments as best he could to portray that I’m also a competitive applicant, but it’s still a bummer. I’m currently deployed so even getting the package completed and submitted was a feat in and of itself seeing as I didn’t start until May and then had my AFOQT, TBAS, and IFC1 rescheduled multiple times thanks to Iran’s shenanigans. I did the best I could this time around without the ability to get more flight hours or enough time to retake the TBAS before the suspense. I’m proud of what I was able to accomplish and if I don’t get picked up I know where I can improve next year.
  23. Ill say for my sq we were/are the last lr squadron until we stand down and remission in 6 months. As for the bar, we had 6-7 push a package and 4 made it through. Myself and two other Lts with a deployment each and pilot/pcsm 99/99, 99/99, 99/98 then a seasoned captain: great scores, prior exec, shop chief, evaluator. At my sq it's tough to be shit hot whole Airman concept when every officer in the sq is an RPA Pilot and you arent making instructor as an Lt so you had to fire wall the numbers on the 215.
  24. what was the bar? and what sq?
  25. Auditory exclusion most definitely kicked in. He didn't hear shit
