Yeah, they'll be around FY14. As far as the PERSTEMPO thing, if that is about assignments, U-28 guys still are having a difficult time getting out of AFSOC or U-28s. Everyone was told again about 4 months ago to not expect to leave the community. Volunteering for a Reaper/ Pred would do it, but not much else.
How about for CSOs? I've heard there may be a new airframe soon... any good gossip on that front?
About half a cookie dropped right out of my mouth when PP questioned if I should be eating a cookie..... I was never less than 200 lbs. I always viewed the weight issue under the auspice that I was TAMI'd there and was just doing my part to fill the needs of the Air Force. I was never going to be less than 195, but always did my best to stay as low as I could. The weight limits weren't a huge deal for a long time until the aircraft kept growing in weight and fuel loads became more critical to meet station time. I guess its a big deal again.
I've been hovering at about 180 since college so I didn't worry much, but I am in U-28 IQT right now and there are plenty of bros who are at least a little over 200 around here, no one has said anything. Maybe the line sqs care more...

I'm thankful to have met Col Day early in my career. His story and career are the stuff of Air Force legend that may not be seen again for a long time. While this day has been coming for some time, this one hurts.
To Misty 1, a toast.

Cause you gotta feed the feral cats that eat the rats.
I thought that's what the rats were for?

Wasn't there unfortunately, but the town of Boerne (pronounced: Burn-knee) had one hell of a turn out for Tyler for his funeral. The local media here in San Antonio did a very respectable job of covering the story. Can't find the video yet.

When I was at Randolph I had a girlfriend in Boerne. It's a beautiful little german town in the hill country, just south of Fredericksburg. The people there are very warm and friendly, I kind of adopted it as a hometown away from home. Really sucks to see this happen to them. Him, him.
Ever Considered Expating?

I can't believe people are even considering this. Being born American is like winning the lottery, have some pride and loyalty and get behind the Stars and Stripes. We will never be perfect but we are still the city on a hill.
