Maybe they have finally cracked the code. A few old Ops folks were over there, but I don’t think any of them would be SSgt still. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

I am so tired of this PC culture. They literally tweeted about what they get paid for and people freak out. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

For some reason I think the TAG has a say in this. So it would vary state to state. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

I think this should be the case with any discussion Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

We, as ANG, have to make sure the TAGs know that the ARNG and ANG are different. Most TAGs are Army and don’t understand the ANG and don’t care to learn (which is a shame). The ATAG has to be a vocal advocate. Your ANG pilots will walk if they are involuntarily sent somewhere. As I said earlier, I haven’t seen it happen yet, but I know too many bros that stay onboard because they control their own fate. Take that away and they are gone. Not worth the hassle.

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.

Don’t ever remember it happening in Tweets Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

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

Unbelievable. I can’t believe this is an official USAF video. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

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

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

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

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

Great, solid answer. I feel like I just sat thru an initial IPUG ride. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

I guess you prefer the other one. Your choice. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
