Was flying for the Air Force worth it?
Just in case anyone else is reading this thread with the same question. I spent 20 years and 4 days active. 3 as mx, 6 as a boom and the remainder as a pliot. To me, the life experience I gained, good and bad, would not have been possible in any other profession. I saw the world and all of the different types of boobies. I slept inside F-16 intakes to keep out of my bosses' view. I was able to learn how to work in extreme conditions with people of all walks of life. I hurt bad guys and helped a few people having a bad day. I served my country in that shit hole we call the middle east. I can walk with my head high because I did some bad ass shit (things you can't do as a civilian) and I know most of the people I served with walked the walk as well. The AF and aviation isn’t for everyone, but for those of you with the love of flight and love for your countrymen, the AF is capable of providing a life built around this. It's far from a perfect military organization but it's the only place I know (along with the Navy, USMC and USA) where you can legally fire your weapons while flying lol.

What's wrong with the Air Force?
This. Especially shadowing mission planning for a fighter sortie or something else as complex. They learn you just dont hop in a jet and go fuck around...unless its on a Friday XC day or something lol.

What's wrong with the Air Force?
Dude, I loved ASBC. As a prior E with 9 years AD under my belt, 6 of which were spent as a boom. ASBC gave me a chance to restart the liver after my stay at OTS. Lol. I taught my class what was important, binge drinking through the non flying bullshit TDYs lol.

You know what a 50 year old "white dude" (race is really not important, I'm just paraphrasing what was said in the video) retired sailor has, experience. Experience saves lives. Not inspiration.

The Next President is...
This Edit: Cough, cough....Epstein's Lolita Express. The Bills (not from Buffalo but Clinton and Gates), Trump, Prince Andrew and all of the others who hungout with that POS. They banged kids and there is enough evidence regarding this to send all of us common folk to San Quentin to be recipients of non consensual butt love for years, yet they are still free. Policitcs aside, the rich and powerful live with a different justice system. We should be fighting them intsead of each other.

Pentagon to Monitor Military Social Media
"NEW - U.S. military unit monitors social media for mean posts about current and former high-ranking ..." Mean? The Generals are upset that people are being mean on the internet. The military still turns targets into hair, teeth and eyeballs right? People in charge of a profession based on killing are upset that words hurt lol. Some of our "leaders" are as frail as a bunch of toddlers.

The WOKE Thread (Merged from WTF?)
It’s almost like the super rich and powerful don’t really care about us common folk (dems and repubs, doesn’t matter). This sounds strangely familiar? Has this ever happened before in human history? I’ll give us all a big hint, yes. I’m not going to source every single time this happened because it is littered everywhere throughout the human story. I’d rather be alive today in the US than any other part of the globe or history, but we too have corrupt humans in charge. It’s the problem with having some sort of power hierarchy with humans behind the wheel . The dirtbags always find their way to the top. The best human society needs to be a compromise of capitalism, socialism (we gotta pay for roads and shit, universal healthcare seems like a human thing to do) with an elected body of government, chosen by the people. Sounds familiar. We have a really good system in place here in the US. The reason it’s not working: Turds (our leaders, regardless if it’s a political one or a CEO of a company) seem to float to the top of the power structure. Greed is rewarded instead of being a good human. Also, the rich and powerful have better means to take control of the law making process and stay in charge. But Biff, what about the people in Mississippi or North Dakota who don’t agree with the beliefs of those living in the looney bin also know as California? States rights. The Federal government needs to realize this. Not everyone agrees with the same laws. That’s why I can smoke a giant doobie in CA but not in AL. The US has the unique problem of having ethnicities from every part of the globe (maybe even the universe with Lizard People and Aliens lol). We will not make everyone happy. We all need to realize this and learn how to compromise. I don’t care for abortions, but the majority of voters here (CA) do so it’s legal here. There are more people of puritan heritage in the Deep South, so they vote against it. The majority of the people are happy. If you live in the Deep South, you’ll probably have to compromise your abortion rights. We almost have it figured out. We just need to learn to live with our differences and compromise. Edit: And somehow we need to get rid of the dirtbag mentality of the wealthy. Basically, the "fuck you, I got mine" attitude needs to go.

What's wrong with the Air Force?
This Edit: Imagine how much money we could save if instead of using regular sized aircraft, we made everything to 1/4 scale and staffed the squadrons full of midgets. Thinking outside the “box”. We save money, have less of a footprint and we get to add another group of marginalized people to the fight.

Sounds like a wizard. It could have just been a transient old guard boom operator or something of the like. He couldn’t find his crew and they left him in the system. Lol

I’ve always wondered why nobody in the US brings this up. Lol. Not a single word from the media about some real homophobia and race issues. Imagine if everyone chanted “faggot” or “nigger” during an NFL game. Good game though.

The USMNT beat Mexico 3-0 in the CONCACAF Nations League Semi Final last night. There were 4 red cards given. This is the best USMNT we've ever had. If you're curious about soccer, (wink wink SocialD) this is the time to be a USMNT fan.

Track Selects and Assignment Nights
I heard they’re creating a secret tanker unit at March. They’re moving the KC-10s back there instead of the boneyard. Lol That’d be awesome 😎
