  1. Almost 27 years in ANG and I’ve never seen this happen. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  2. Isn’t it 6 months? Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  3. I grew up in the Herk and had a nickname I was given at Nav school. Really only used by the guys I played softball with, but carried it thru UPT and beyond. Wasn’t given an official callsign until we switched to MQ-9s and I was a Lt Col. Now everyone knows me by my callsign. It’s all about your community.

  4. Don’t ever remember it happening in Tweets Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  5. I don’t remember having namings during UPT. Does this happen during Tones/-38 or T-6’s? Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  6. You could see this coming from a mile away Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  7. Unbelievable. I can’t believe this is an official USAF video. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  8. I have 2 great uncles that fought in the Battle of the Bulge. 1 is still alive. I went to Bastogne 10 years or so ago and took a bunch of pictures for him. Amazing to have him tell stories when he saw the pics. He heard his brother was there as well and went to find him. Found each other, shared a frozen K ration for Christmas dinner, and then went back to their units. One uncle was riding on a tank the next day and they came under German artillery fire, knocking him off the tank and unconscious. Woke up and only heard German voices. Played dead until he heard English voices again. Not sure how long he was out there. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  9. Up $186 for an O-5 in Nashville. Housing market here has skyrocketed over the last 3-5 yrs, the BAH is kinda keeping up (ok maybe it’s just going up) Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  10. Didn’t he say he was a DO at an AETC base? I really hope he was a troll. If not, I hate to see the squadron. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  11. They aren’t pin on. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  12. Out of curiosity, what’s his background? Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  13. I also thought it was odd when they said the WG/CC and WG/CV were not available when the board was asking questions. Is that unusual? Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  14. Great, solid answer. I feel like I just sat thru an initial IPUG ride. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  15. I guess you prefer the other one. Your choice. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  16. Hopefully getting rid of that damn pic posted earlier. Tired of seeing it as the picture of the thread. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

  18. See the thread in the ANG/AFRC Forum Active retirement in ARC https://www.flyingsquadron.com/forums/applications/tapatalk/index.php?/topic/22057-Active-retirement-in-ARC Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  19. Great summary and checks with what we told the past few days by HRO during a class. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  20. All units keep their bar stocked on the back of applicants. Live with it. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  21. A lot depends on the unit. My old wing, where I was a member for over 26 years, never had a DSG that I know of retire with an AD retirement. Other wings in the state have. Talked to FSS at my new wing last week and they had done 2 in the past few years. It all depends on the mission. Old wing is now RPAs and they have to adapt to the changes. I know someone that will soon press-to-test. Wish him the best and he should, without a doubt, receive it since he has earned it. I also know of other states where DSGs have gotten AD retirements.

  24. I was down at the beach until we were under a mandatory evacuation order. Word was the base was under mandatory evacuation as well. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  25. We are Eastern Europe as well, NATO and EU members. And actually SPP=State Partnership Program. The Peace part went away in the 90s. New focus and most recent additions have been in Africa. Have fun with that. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
