For those that don't know. https://www.ajc.com/n...eam-memb/nQKwH/ I'm guessing, these two won't be posing for any pics together anytime soon. Proves the saying, no matter how hot she is, someone is tired of fucking her. FIFY

More SARC briefings soon.
If your base allows alcohol on the property... Sadly there are many that do not (even for fini-flights).

Same here! So is rape! The psychological damage that rape causes, lasts a lifetime.

Haha...I don't know about your squadron, but we are not issuing leather jackets anymore. The ones they did issue for the last couple years were complete shit and fell apart quick. Or penis amputation (for rape of course)?

Rumor - ORIs Ending?
Lots of units use them for their 2 week summer camps (not just flying squadrons), Navy and Marines use them as well. Some units det out of them to help support SEALs/JTACs/etc... at the local range. Generally CRTCs have lots of airspace/ranges nearby which = more training per sortie. They also use them to quick turn or pit for more training as well. Lots of LEO (cops/swat/airport SRT) use them for various training exercises.

Reserve Wing being stood up at Little Rock AFB
This is what I mean, why is there Reserve and Guard on the same base, basically doing the same mission? Kinda like having two squadrons of herks at MSP (1 ANG/1 RES). WTF? With how small the reserves are, why are we funding a complete and separate competent? Ex...we have an A staff for both AFRC and ANG...seems like lots of wasted $$$$.

Reserve Wing being stood up at Little Rock AFB
It surprises me that we're standing up a new reserve wing. In the current fiscal & associate environment, why don't we roll the AFRC into the ANG?

Rated vs. Non-rated officer (Benefits of rating and pros and cons)
Dynamic, Avenge, L3, and another one that flies O-2s. I'm not exactly sure what one he worked for, but I know he was paid very well for his services. But I do not agree that there is no difference between them and all our ISR assets. Show me where American companies are using civilians to fly fighters/bombers, so I can go apply. I would make a shit ton more $$$$ than I do in the military. Then I could keep buying guns to replace the ones I keep losing in the lake. It's not uncommon to have civilian test pilots, and/or civilians to be in charge of a major program. This is especially true in AFMC. Oh they will apply, because they will be paid generously (see civilian contractors I mentioned above...minus the O-2 company). Or they could contract out a lot of lift, as we do now, to Atlas/Omni/Evergreen/etc. Yup, stil a military person on title 10 pulling the trigger.

The place I was in had tons of 22LR ammo. Limit 5 bricks. I bought my limit...not sure why as I don't have a 22 anymore.

More SARC briefings soon.
So I was checking out the list floating around Facbook that AF.mil released and noticed redacted lines. So I compared those items to the list on military times....sure enough all the lines that had an action taken of "turn over to SFS/JAG/OSI," were redacted in the AF.mil list...

Rated vs. Non-rated officer (Benefits of rating and pros and cons)
Shooters can't be outsourced but just about anything else can. A guy in our squadron had a gig making 150+ flying a Kingair or Dash-8 around the AOR for a contractor.

Blues on Monday
So I'm assuming if he didn't get an excellent or a 100% on the closed book, he would give up his command? So, is a speeding ticket something you have to report to your CC? If so, this is the first I've heard of this.

OMG mermaid handle beer mugs!!!! This will single handedly stop 6-9 rapes this year... This is hypocritical considering the military is cool with the USO bringing them over to the AOR for morale... They forgot this one! These people have lost their minds! Soon, our thoughts will be monitored while at work, and anything remotely sexual will be censored, so you don't even think it. Also, from here on out, while in active service, sex will be allowed for procreation only and in the missionary position.

Rumor - ORIs Ending?
This isn't the real world...it's the fake world of the IG. Kinda reminds me of a story from a Vietnam era book. The squadron had to do an ORI, in country, during the war and they failed. Guess who kept flying combat missions. One of the findings was the jets weren't painted IAW the reg (sharks teeth under the nose), the bosses response was "Noted."

FAA orders 787 grounding until battery problem fixed
Eh, pretty standard "teething" issues with a new aircraft. I wouldn't be too worried about. Never fly the A-model of anything.
