My Pops jacket looks exactly like it did 10 yrs ago when I bought it. Had to replace zipper when some of the teeth were ripped out a few years back. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums

Took all of 8 or 9 days for him to go public. And W was silent for 8 yrs. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums

I did a 2 year non flying embassy gig and it was awesome. Actually, I kept flying at my home unit, but travel was on me. I will second everything said above. Embassy life was pretty sweet. I had a staff of foreign nationals and driver. I was treated like a king when I visited the host nation Mil bases. I actually met my wife there. She was State Department. We hung out with the same group of folks, started dating, and we got married about a year after getting back. I would highly recommend it if the opportunity presents itself, especially if it's a flying gig. Herkbum Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums

Did you get a checkride in a fixed-wing airplane at primary, T-6 or T-34? If so, you are GTG. If not, you'll likely have to go to UPT. We recently hired a Marine MV-22 bubba. Took right at a full year before we were able to swear him in. So, if interested, get the process started as soon as you know you are going to pull the trigger. Have a plan to support yourself for at least a yr during the process. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums

And how is this Trump's fault? Just because he accepted the resignation? Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums

It goes off duty location, i.e. where your base is located Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums

Every time I put the base zip code in, it says insufficient something or another use a 5 digit code. What did you use? Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums

I do not. Check with your MDG, they may have some insight. Ours went out to SD and did some clinics for the Native Americans and to Bulgaria to help some remote villages. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums

Most of the situations you describe, that I am aware of, are done in conjunction with OCONUS deployments such as the State Partnership Program. All are Humanitarian Assistance projects that the host COCOM funds. The ones I know of here in CONUS were done as part of an Annual Training, most of them by the MDG.

Also stumped by the question. If you were in my unit, the answer would be "no". Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums

We have heard about a TR/extended orders bonus for RPA units. Does anyone have any insight into this? We are researching, but curious if any bubbas are getting it or have some knowledge. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums

Not a FAIP, just curious. Price? Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums

We knew, I guess we need some parity. But you will likely get lonely. And BTW, come pick up your clothing issue stuff-it's crowding up my office! Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums

Maybe we need to rethink our decision Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums

Well it can't get any worse than correspondence Edition 17 AWC. Tons of reading, most of it not as interesting as the stuff I read back in ACSC. Some good stuff buried deep within the program. The last course is Joint Strat Ldrshp, where you write a PDP consisting of you personal senior leadership philosophy; short, mid, long-term personal and professional goals. This was the first time I had ever put my thoughts on this on paper, which i feel is ridiculous. This should have been done early in ACSC. At this point in my career, I am more than likely to retire than get promoted. The PDP is something that could be molded as your career progresses, not written right before you retire.

That's for you, the interviewee, to figure out. Not a poll question. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums

He may be one of the few in the Grp. I guess he'll keep us semi-balanced Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums

We're glad to have him. Just need to get him off to trng. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums

Nah, he needs to go to trng first. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums

Yep. But it was a long time ago. Just did a bunch of AD orders when I was enlisted.

Well it sounds like someone at Eglin may soon be able to shed light on this dude. If he's a douchebag now, he's unlikely to change very quickly.
