  1. They even worked some JASSM-ER into the mix.
  2. British Tornados, B-1s, TLAMs...I’m sure there are a few Raptors in the mix.
  3. Congrats and thank you for your service. Semper Fi.
  4. Lost in all of this is just how corrupt and partisan the FBI has become. The FBI just released the IG report on McCabe and it states he lied to numerous senior officials, he lied under oath to BENEFIT HIMSELF, and he was the source of a leak during the election. Comey's book excerpts are flowing and I could care less about the insults and hand size drama, but he admits he the following: He failed to tell Trump he knew Hillary paid for the Dossier, he decided to release the late breaking info on Hillary only after he noted she was ahead in the pools, and he released potentially classified information through a friend to drive the appointment of a special prosecutor. Bottomline, love or hate Trump, the top two "Leaders" of the FBI leaked information. Sickening.
  5. The report worded it to say 1/3 of the entire population. Further 65% of eligibles have declined the bonus.
  6. In the final stages of the process with Marty right now...great service but be prepared to provide a LOT of paperwork!
  7. The GAO is out with a new report sounding the alarm of the Fighter Pilot shortage across DoD. Fully 1/4 of all Fighter Pilot billets are now empty. There were some interesting gems in the report like how the Navy tried to normalize some of the shortages by EXTENDING deployments. Also, over the past four years over 1/3 of the USAF's Fighter Pilots have elected to leave the service.
  8. Except when the Legal Office made recommendations to me as a Commander they did so in private, not on the public stage after calling a news conference. Legal analysis like drafting a memo clearing Clinton before she was even interviewed... Do you actually believe any of this tripe?
  9. Odd, I seem to recall Comey saying Hillary should not be charged...
  10. Two issues here: 1. Sitting in on TS/SCI meetings without a clearance is troubling....HOWEVER, the President of the United States is the ULTIMATE declassification authority...IF he approves the adminstrivia is meaningless. Is it a bad optic, absolutely...illegal, nope. 2. Lying or emitting details on an SF-86 - 100% a crime that should be punished.
  11. How about when investigators find TS/SCI information on an unauthorized , unclassifed, and unprotected email server?
  12. Apparently there has been a spike in accidents and CSAF wants to know why? https://www.airforcetimes.com/news/your-air-force/2018/04/09/air-force-chief-of-staff-orders-review-of-increasing-aviation-mishaps/?utm_source=Sailthru&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=EBB 4/10/18&utm_term=Editorial - Military - Early Bird Brief
  13. https://www.airforcetimes.com/news/your-air-force/2018/04/05/air-force-identifies-thunderbirds-pilot-killed-in-f-16-crash/
  14. It never gets easier...Where do we find such brave young men and women. Him Him.
  15. Memorial was Friday. He was simply put, a good man. Him Him
  16. Reportedly a ground launched R-27. Gets real interesting at 1:34.
  17. Search AFRC Stop Loss on this forum standard measure they do every year...
  18. Kicking the can seems to be the trend, how will it manifest down the road. Honestly I think it is good to revisit the syllabus from time to time, but when you push basic flying tasks to the operational unit that comes at a cost to MR training. My bigger fear is we have lowered the bar and it we will see the accident rate spike.
  19. I mostly have, but there are still a lot of folks serving that I actually care about and there is that whole future of our country thing.
