The Tunnel To Towers Foundation is donating $100,000 to help pay off Raguso's mortgage and is using all additional proceeds to help pay off his family's remaining mortgage if you feel inclined. Tunnel To Towers is an amazing organization that helps Fire Fighters and their families, more info can be found at their website below.

From what I understand, I don't have a whole lot of info or first hand accounts. Just the hearsay around the students from what they are telling the studs that drop it.

Anyone know/have experience on how this will effect the defense contractors hiring process? Northrop, Lockheed, Jacobs, etc?

Most got in their top 5, if not the few others had their top 10. Also found out that the Growler gig is for a 6 year tour

The majority (all but ~3) of the T-1 pilots at Pensacola are tan suits. They are definitely some who will reck your entire life and make you re-think every choice in your life, all while the green suit instructor sits there and lets you take it. All are retired mil pilots, while they aren't your grader they are certainly a huge part of our instruction dynamic on the T-1 flight line that seems to work well for us. They even sit in on EPs and tell you what the pilot will be doing and thinking to help you come to a decision better and help train your thought process. You learn a lot of airmanship from them for sure.

Doubt it, probably one and done from what we've been told. My guess is he'll go to the B-1 after, but F-15's are an option too

Yep, we're rumored to get two Growlers this fiscal year. We'll see what happens, not holding my breath

From what I saw on social media, the 106th NY unit airlifted their helos in C-17s from the Newburgh NY guard, then they all staged at the air port at College Station where the 106th's HCs met up with more supplies

The EC J was another guard, so 3x guard total

Wondering if anyone has any gouge or experience with Border Patrol Aviation. A few google searches haven't given much information as their website isn't user friendly. Synopsis: I recently graduated from Air Force UCT as a qualified CSO. Shortly after graduation I came into some mental health problems and its looking like I'll be honorably discharged. So now I'm looking for a different job. I'be been looking into different aviation jobs that could use a CSO with not a lot of experience, and it's come down to flight planning or possibly Border Patrol. Pretty interested in their sensor operator positions as it's something I would be qualified to do. Some of my questions are: Where are their different air craft located? Could only find information on the South West region. What's the difference in an Air Inderdiction Agent(AIA) and Air Enforcment Angent (AEA)? Interdiction looks like strictly pilot, so does that include the sensor positions, or would that be lumped into the AEA? Are they only looking for experienced aviators, or would they be interested in a young winged dude looking to grow? Any information would be awesome and appreciated, thanks all

They also added that if you are over 26 when you check in to Pensacola you are able to live off base

Nah not me, just the first one that's ever dropped out of the school house, thought it was pretty noteable They had a lot of people fall into their class. Two who had babies, one who was on medical hold and got cleared, one who had to have his security clearance checked, one who had family stuff, and one who had failed an elim check and got back in the program.They would have been only 16 people without those guys

Just came back last week actually. Its a pretty cool experience. I'm in ROTC but had some guard guys in our groups. Some of the tests they go through are: -Flight Doctor Physical -Urine Test/Blood Test -Chest X-Rays -Dental Check Up -Hearing Test, blood pressure -Depth Perception Test – Don’t let anyone psych you out, this seemed to happen a lot, as everyone seems to know someone who got sent home for it. Just take your time, if there is an issue they will let you know, if they don’t, don’t worry. -Red Lens Test, color blindness, and a few other eye tests of the sort. -Extensive Eye Exam (this includes dilating your eyes) -3-4 Hour Psych Exam – which is just a concussion test on steroids Lot of hurry up and wait, so I'd bring a book or something. But everyone there is super nice and great to deal with. They all just want to help you out and see you do well. Like I said before, don't let anyone psych you out. They'll let you know if there are any issues, if they don't say anything, I wouldn't worry. If you have any other questions feel free to PM me

there were only 33 nation wide that got it, I was lucky enough to get one

For those that got this Scholarship, talk to your NCO's, after EA's come out you are able to schedule flight physical.
