You can check here to see if you got credentials out in the wild - https://haveibeenpwned.com/ I've only got 1 set rolling around, from Disqus...notably from when I was commenting on JQP's site.

That derisive tone about it being a retention issue prove otherwise. Grow up and realize you have a bias in this issue, otherwise you wouldn't be so talkative on the subject. But, playing along--how about divorced dudes who now get dependent rates for their kids (who mostly don't live with them)? Technically they're single and "worth more" to the service...but get money of those "of less worth." You have no idea what they'd offer unless you were involved in the hiring process, or someone spoke out of turn. Person might negotiate for less not knowing what they could demand == more value for company. Or, perhaps they have a particular skill/experience and could negotiate for more. And you had no say in those moves? The company thrust it upon you as a requirement you were indentured to fulfill? Thank you for your sacrifice.

Are you sure?

Star Wars was pretty good. Go see it.

New AFSPC brown-noise solicitation message flying around. Seem like appropriate use of a Patch. #2) Aide to the Commander- Estimated start date: Jun/Jul 18- Desired rank: Capt/Maj- Desired AFSC: Any- Additional requirements: Weapons School graduate, SOS complete and on track for IDE

Huh.. for the Kindle and Mass Market version Horse Soldiers has been renamed to "12-Strong." Thanks for the list.

Same.

Can't speak for the pubs/flying pieces. But these EFB's are a wonderful threat vector.

Was not, Sir. I just love posting the video.

How many for cyber? We're having our own retention issues, and to get the cool training you incur a significant ADSC. We've also got our own devil's-money bonus. So I wonder what the pull in is given the drops announced in the other thread. We just finished our Vet day activities, and the number of people excited to celebrate being out was interesting. Not a lot of the nostalgia I saw from vets when I first joined. Though, I'm older and could be jaded.

Turn off NCIS grandpa...

We've already gotten pressed that "this has high visibility" due to "national story" and we need to figure out how to modify the network to share our fingerprint database, other info. Little late now...

That is one thing they pointed out in the podcast "Serial." If he hadn't deserted it would have been an amazing story of survival.

Not a lawyer either, but our system has some peculiarities that might make this the actual case. Either way, I hold to a belief system that tells me not to judge. So I'm trying to do that in this situation, with middling success.

I don't know about now. But my first retail job wanted to know what kind of discharge you had on the application. I think there was also some commentary from the judge saying the comments of the President had to be taken into order when deciding this ruling. Same thing happened with Obama and the sexual assault convictions and undue command influence.

Thought this was a new topic and he was given no punishment. Whew...

Interesting observation. I felt it started of glacially (not a bad thing) and slowly gained speed.

There's some short films to tie the movies together with some of the things that were mentioned.

'Nother 3-star lets a buddy off. Prep yourselves. WTF is going on? https://www.washingtonpost.com/investigations/how-the-military-handles-sexual-assault-cases-behind-closed-doors/2017/09/30/a9df0682-672a-11e7-a1d7-9a32c91c6f40_story.html?utm_term=.1ca3cee77b63#comments

I would like this Air Force back please.

Just send it to JQP, he'll write it up and it'll ruffle some feathers enough something might happen.

Well.. not just this YG - https://www.airforcetimes.com/news/your-air-force/2017/09/18/all-eligible-air-force-captains-to-be-promoted-to-major-for-next-three-four-years/ "Goldfein also said that promoting all qualified captains will mean squadron commanders won’t have to do the paperwork involved, which he said amounted to “a pretty significant administrative burden” and would free up considerable amounts of their time. Wilson also said that without these promotion boards, squadron commanders will have to step up and tell underperforming captains that they’re not cutting it. “If you’ve got a captain who really shouldn’t become a major, you need to step forward and say so, and not move it to some faceless promotion board,” Wilson said."

Negative. This is pushed from higher, with bad word-of-mouth if a unit/wing isn't putting in for these BS awards. I can say when I've been in positions to deal with these, everything we can "neg respond" on, we did. That was a pitiful number though.

Weird to see Rainman on here as a Guest account due to the update. Hope he's doing well.

Here's a possible reason - "Look, you guys got promoted! Please don't flee for the airlines/industry!"
