What are my chances for UPT with a delinquent background?
I had to have a moral waiver for when I commissioned for 2 class A and 2 class B misdemeanors. It wasn't an issue at all.

Information on PIT (Pilot Instructor Training)
The latest for people at PIT. Bottom line don't put your spouse on a lease. One guy I know is out almost $4200 because of this.

Safety of Flight/Crew Rest
A specific example C17 CDD augmented is 24+45 starting one hour after alert or crew show. FDP is 24+00 from the same point. Basically allows for you to shut down engines at 24 hours and still do paperwork and off load.

I used them but that was 7 years ago.

WTF? (**NSFW**)
Amazingly enough I can't read, haven't worked under her command both at a home station and deployed. Also, I have never heard of an ACS during my time I never spent around them as a comm tech. I never realized that tactically minded individuals speaking highly of someone means they are qualified for strategic command. As for the ridiculous comment about theater vs theatre, how about you take that energy and go work the change the F-86 from Sabre to Saber because that's more "American". While you are at it grammar police, fix the abbreviations for commander. Since this is the WTF thread I figured I would make this post worthwhile with a Porsche doing some mudding.

Altus DUI punishment
Methinks that's a bit too optimistic. I keep hearing the board is coming, but I doubt it will hit that soon. Heard it from the AETC/CC two days ago. It will be here. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

IFS (Initial Flight Screening) information
I agree with this. If I remember correctly she can't even get in the building and you will be up at around four or five AM. Plus you should be studying every day. We had guys that had time in the Diamond and they were either studying or helping others. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

SGT Bowe Bergdahl Freed
What amazes me about the video is that they took him to the helo before they finished patting him down. Imagine if he had an IED placed on him. I'm amazed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Mass urinalysis at Dover AFB
I remember back in 05 my unit at Dyess all got rounded up. They had mid shift stay late for a CC call and did a recall for swings. Had all 250 or so of us tested. They busted about 9 or 10 people. Same thing no calls no leaving til you piss. They even had about 20 NCOs from EMS to monitor testing. Pretty good justification IMO.

What's wrong with the Air Force?
We had a mandatory squadron briefing from OSI after someone emailed a mission data card to their personal email. All because it had drop times for a local training sortie.

What's wrong with the Air Force?
Nope there never is and it makes sense so we will probably continue to piss away money.

What's wrong with the Air Force?
And that is ridiculous. It doesn't help that for OS tours it's a three year standard. Imagine the savings if we extended that to four years. I found a document a while back the estimates the average PCS costs in the neighborhood of 30K. Beyond the money add in the usefulness of an aircrew member in that final year. Talk about improving experience levels throughout the different communities.

What's wrong with the Air Force?
Chuck I think you are spot-on with the patch movement. This is just another problem with the Air Force. Let's send them TDY to become "tacticians" in their airframes and fly their asses off for six months but when they get back we put them in positions where they don't fly much and are stuck being paper pushers, briefing writers, wing DSs and the such. To me it's retarded. Just my two worthless sense. Then again I thing it's ridiculous first assignment guys are PCSing just after their AC upgrade on the C17 side because we need to "show career progression". What a waste of money IMO.

Let's bitch about the BX here!
I will say the electronics protection plan has been a pretty good deal. Got it with my iPad which I dropped and broke. Within 2 weeks I had a check for full value even though the newer iPad had just came out so I got a free upgrade in a round about way. Never had such an easy dealing with a protection plan anywhere else.

No she doesn't but don't try to claim the PFD without doing that.
