Military Discounts
I mentioned the Soldiers and Sailors Relief Act, which was the predecessor to the SCRA. I'll reattack, see what I can dig up, and will advise. FYI, I'm a Reservist. The 2 times I had them open a case (Sept and Nov) were during periods of long term Active Duty orders, so it shouldn't have mattered. Thanks for the responses.

Military Discounts
AMEX is no longer waiving the $450 membership fee. You can cancel any time and receive a refund for the pro-rated balance of your membership. Bummer. I've been dicking around since September with them trying to figure out why I haven't been credited and finally found out today after speaking to a manager that the membership fee reimbursement program is gone. Spread the word, save your bros money. (If anyone hears differently and gets reimbursed, please take down the name of who you talked to so i can call them)

Guard C-130 lifestyle
60k as a 1LT bum in the C-5 was possible in years past. Add another 10-15k for per diem. Yes, that's a lot of TDY. Those days appear to be gone at my squadron, unfortunately. I'll now turn the thread back over to the tac airlifters

I believe there was a NATO C-17 headed that way yesterday.... Have we confirmed it was USAF?

Herkbum and R-dub: Do y'all have your proofs yet? Just the image of a CAD of all the casebacks?

Omega X-33 Order
I asked for an update Tuesday and got a response today: "Laura (chick in Switzerland) just came back today from health issues. She said she will have an update for us in the middle of next week. Thanks." So she's either been sick for the 47 days since last contact, or we're getting dicked around... still. Continue holding short, awaiting IFR release.

Omega X-33 Order
Hahaha, I knew it was a matter of time before someone made a joke like this. I doubt anyone anticipated it taking this long. Well done. It's the biggest one your wife has seen. Joking aside, this process has been incredibly painful. Everyone's continued patience is appreciated. Hopefully Tunes will post up a picture of the clown at Omega USA who's 'managing' our order.

Omega X-33 Order
Omega finally made contact today - the first time since September. Doaa left the company, but her replacement is looking in to our order. I'll post as soon as they get back to me. I reminded them of our holiday delivery expectation, but we'll have to see what they say with progress.
