  1. Y'all sound like the board of every major corporation in America today looking for a CEO. We want someone who's really going to shake things up, take this company out of its rut and into the future as the leader in our field! Ooh, that guy, no he's a little bit too controversial for us. Besides we want someone with more experience in this type of company. Let's go with established-safe-guy-in-a-suit. Fast forward a couple years I don't understand, why is our company still stuck unable to innovate or change direction?

  2. best part of the day, every day, bringing up that fact in every single forgen discussion. It's fine though, we'll ride this burning train off the cliff, then leadership will look around and ask again "where'd everyone go?"

  3. Exactly what you're doing. To baseline be competitive for fighters you need a college degree, a PPL, and good test scores (>90, can vary a bit if you are strong elsewhere). So, my focus areas if I were you would be: 1) do a good job in AFE (if you suck, you'll never get hired) 2) get a college degree with a > 3.0, get your PPL, and take the tests 3) talk to pilots when they're not busy trying to step to the jet ("hey sir/ma'am, how was the flight? - at least until they stop telling you to say sir/ma'am which they should do immediately), go up after drill and after you've done your work to talk to folks, etc.

  4. I’ve had their AK-V 9mm for 6 years, it’s set up for HD and it’s a solid and fun gun. Plus it’s a nail driver. It was after the initial batch had some issue and was corrected after Jmac did the review and found the problem. Their CS is great. For mid level stuff they make good stuff, all in house. Plus their stated goal is to help arm all of America. plus id use their parts kits and lowers no problem, just get a better barrel or if they still sell the FN barrels.

  5. It doesn't have leaders like MG William Zana... An Army general’s final ‘walk’ at the Tomb of the Unknowns MG William Zana, the only guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier to reach the rank of general, took a final guard shift on the night he retired. At exactly 10 p.m. on the warm, last night of May, MG William Zana received his orders and began his final guard shift on the smooth marble stone plaza at the center of Arlington National Cemetery. In two hours it would be midnight, a new day and new month. A new guard would relieve him at his post, he would march off the plaza and suddenly, instantly, be a civilian. But for the final two hours of his 37-year career, Zana wanted one last chance to stand a shift he had held as a young sergeant: keeping watch over the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. “I was Pvt. Zana when I showed up to the Old Guard,” Zana told Task & Purpose.“You know, all of us who raise our right hand and serve, there’s things that define you. First combat tour, first loss of personnel. For me, volunteering for and serving at the Tomb was absolutely both defining and shaping.” (Full story at the title link) I don't know the man, nor do I know much about his career other than what I read in his bio; but based on this article, I have the utmost respect for him!
