    Leadership at the 'Deid

    Take a look at the foreign clearance guide... The qataris are being dicks to us.

    You don't need to read the foreign clearance guide to see that....just go through customs anywhere in the country (but especially at the Deid) and you'll experience it firsthand.

    Aviation Continuation Pay (ACP - The Bonus)

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    You guys are fucking hilarious. I will tell you what I tell my 4 and 2 year old. BE PATIENT! When the 6.9 year $725,569 bonus is official and stop loss is OFFICIAL, all you questions will be answered. Until then, just keep screaming about how unfair the world is.

    I will take the bonus if it is at $725,569.

    Unless airlines are hiring, which I believe you said they are?

    VA Loans

    Yet another satisfied NBoKC customer here. Closed w/ Dave Devine yesterday on a VA re-fi (3.75 to 3.25). Zero closing costs w/ lender credit, and I cannot emphasize how easy the process is. Literally, I probably spent less than 1 hour filling out forms, etc prior to closing yesterday. Signing completed in my home yesterday evening.

    Did I mention how easy it was?

    Highly, highly recommend.

    The guys at Quantico are able to ship to an FFL in your area. You can place an order now and get it in a couple weeks.

    I just called their San Diego store (the main store/number was already closed for the day) and they said they were out of stock. Did you have any luck with the main number?

    Almost pulled the trigger (no pun intended) on the S&W M&P-15 about 3 weeks ago. Big mistake waiting on that one. Anyone know of any other locations that still have 'em, or any other AR-15s, in stock?

    Tops in Blue (TIB) - WTF?

    The Tops in Blue horse has been kicked to near death in another thread, but I have a reply to your post. I held your sentiment towards them once. I made it to several of their performances though, and even though back then if surrounded by my buds I would say they probably need to go, I enjoyed their performances and I noticed that a lot of people turned out for their shows, when they didn't have to. Over the course of the years I saw a few shows from TIB, who were performing when nobody else showed up, including your country singers. I haven't left one of their shows in the past few years thinking that we need to get rid of them. They are expensive, so there is an argument, akin to the GO's leaf rakers. You are a country singer guy. Some are rock and roll guys. Some are R&B guys, and some are rap guys. TIB deliberately incorporates all of those genres, and they go to where the troops are. That means something. Every rated officer in the USAF between the ranks of Lt to Lt Col will say that TIB needs to be axed, if they are around their buds. But at the end of the day, I've seen an awful lot of those folks at the TIB shows when they did not have to be there. If TIB's intent is to do good by increasing morale...for the operators who's intent is to do good by achieving the commander's intent...it starts looking like a team effort. The world does not evolve around you and your contribution to the mission. I am old. I believe only time will get you to that perspective. Now, if you despise the Tops in Blue because they do not offer you anything, fair enough. But that is your isolated opinion, on par with the fact that you like country music.

    You know how I'm finally 100% sure that you're just a troll? You defended TIB.
