douche (doosh) n. Someone who gives a shit about the difference between balogna and baloney.

That guy again! He must have thousands of hours in the Viper, but his takeoffs are 20% higher than his landings.

North Dakota: South Dakota's North Korea

You are always at BASH severe at or below 2 AGL for all the penguins.

Wasnt' that what ROTC is all about?

Heck, I felt the same way the first time I got in. Of course, she seems to know as much/more than I did...

Those NoDak troops aren't backing down any time soon...

That was a fun day Steve. Ellie made it easy.....it was inspiring to see someone her age so interested in the jet.

Noted. You're a student. I wasn't talking to you. I don't give a shit how well he can teach TP stalls. He needs some peer mentoring over his little newsletter.

Bu-bye

I never called safety of flight, but probably should have on several occasions. The one thing I never did/do was pass up an opportunity to "rest your eyes." If there's a bunk and you're augmented, there should always be someone in it. One of the many mistakes I made was joking to my crew about "wake me up before we land." We were flying from Okinawa to Elmendorf, and 9 hours later, those dipshit LTs woke me up on approach-- just in time to cuddle up to a stripper at the ABC. Calling safety of flight shouldn't be a difficult decision, but then I didn't fear reprisal because I was lucky enough to actually have leadership that backed up my decisions. I'm guessing that's where this so called "difficulty" comes into play. However, when I DID made a decision that may have been questionable, I always gave a courtesy call back to the sqdn before a grenade got rolled into the CC's office at 0700.

KRT BX parking lot. Some chick with a med badge saluted two LM Contract Insructors because she "thought they were Thunderbird pilots." How she mistook two old fat bastards for Thunderbird pilots is beyond me.

Sweet Jesus, it's like an Onion article, except real. They even posted their TTPs on how to more effectively harrass people with their spam e-mails. FML.

JOC Night.... a moment of silence please. I do miss that.
