What's wrong with the Air Force?
You need more than a radar reflector, the bad guys shoot back.

Promotion and PRF Information
Leaders aren't supposed to keep their heads down.

Promotion and PRF Information
I don't know if I should throw up or applaud you. Most "senior" leaders think they can do well at the tactical level, but eventually they fly so little, they cannot, and do not know it. HOWEVER, if the right guy gets into the exec/leadership role and understands they need less priority missions due to proficiency, the unit will be better off as a whole.

Gen Welsh - USAF Chief of Staff
Gotta love him, I know his heart is in the right place. Could you imagine what he has to deal with? We bitch enough here, who can he bitch to?

Retired then AFRC/ANG?
I have lots of second hand, to start, must be title 10 retired to make it happen. (Not 32), the days you work you get military pay but not retirement, I've heard its a double in pay for those days.

Shhhh...Don't talk about the A-10
Generals are political puppets, at least for the most part. I wish Welsh would throw down what he thinks, has he? If he has I missed it. And if Boomer reads this thread, what up!!?

Credit Cards / Cash Back & Rewards Options
I have defended DR before, but I keep an open mind. The credit card stuff looks good, and I do dabble in some rewards programs. I think his point is, eventually, you will pay interest, and the they win. Probably not this group though, just the rest of the USA. I second the 0% interest thing, you paid for it somewhere, I would think usually in overall cost.
