  1. Are you saying RPA shouldn't go to UPT?
  2. Don't remember if Fundamentals is required, but I did forget about IFS prior to UPT. I have seen traffic on SERE being available to RPA, but we have not sent anyone, nor have I heard of any other unit sending anyone. If we could confirm, we would happily send folks.
  3. It's UPT. The timeline will be the UPT timeline. The slots I know about, ours, are expected to be T-38 slots. Just like our only previous RPA UPT stud. Everyone else selected after has been URT. Post UPT, follow on will be to FTU, then MQT(at home station if facilities are complete). Expect CMR 16-18 months from beginning of UPT. Our current selectees were hired with URT expectations. Word came down that they were to be changed to UPT.
  4. Word is some ANG selectees will get to attend UPT. Some URT packages are being resubmitted as UPT packages.
  5. Is that the Maersk Alabama?
  6. Not in my unit. As I said earlier, my OG/CC didn't know anything about it and believes it will never happen. This forum is the first and only place I heard this bonus mentioned.
  7. Drill Status Guardsman, aka a Traditional Guardsman. Herkbum Posted from the NEW Baseops.net App!
  8. Just spoke with my OG/CC. He has not seen anything official. But, he stated his personal feeling is there is no way this gets instituted due to the current fiscal environment.
  9. I'll try to run this to ground tomorrow and see what I can find out. Would love for our guys to get something for all the shit they have put up with the last 2 yrs. Herkbum Posted from the NEW Baseops.net App!

  13. YGBSM! You have been complaining about the control the Mods have exhibited and now you want them to exercise that control at your request? You, sir, never cease to amaze! Herkbum Posted from the NEW Baseops.net App!
  14. Do you ever get tired of carrying that soap box around?

    Trucks

    2013 F-150 XLT 4x4 Ecoboost. Traded in my 2011 528 and I really only miss the gas mileage. Took it to beach and got right at 20 mpg, get 17ish daily. Love my truck. Supercrew with all bells and whistles. Tons of room. Haven't towed anything yet. Herkbum Posted from the NEW Baseops.net App!

    Beretta broke ground on their new facility down here yesterday. May not be a bad retirement gig. https://www.wsmv.com/story/26395407/beretta-usa-breaks-ground-on-new-plant-in-gallatin Herkbum Posted from the NEW Baseops.net App!
  18. Congrats. The AC should always buy the first round.
  19. I miss the Herk tremendously-damn mission change!! I look out my office window every morning to an empty flight line and it just turns my stomach. Almost 20 yrs in the plane so it is hard to let go, but we have to move on. Absolute thrill to fly low-level and airdrop. Too many stories to even begin, but they all usually revolve around the cameraderie of the crew. My 3yr old daughter yells "Herk" every time she sees one. Gotta start them early.
  20. Did she specify what the min order is?
