  1. Thanks fellas, as usual, this is my only resource for accurate AF information.
  2. Don't worry, the boss is "actively monitoring" the situation from Martha's Vineyard. Our foreign policy right now is air tight.
  3. Maybe John Kerry can be that dignitary and throw his purple hearts at the General's casket, like he did when he got back from 'Nam. These clowns don't give 2 shits about the military, why any of you think differently is beyond me. If the General was a professor at Berkely, then the whole crowd would be in tears.
  4. I wouldn't worry about it. The VSP PDSM should trump everything. It will forgive all other time requirements, thats the whole point of it, everything is waived. Why don't you do a couple years in the guard or reserve to be safe if you're really worried? Welcome to the govt, nobody really knows anything.
  5. I'm about to get out and I've been sharpening my pencil, and I'm shocked how much money you can save by taking your insurance business elsewhere. I personally just saved $1300/year by switching to geico for homeowners/auto. Many others were cheaper than USAA though. I know we all like to think of USAA as unbeatable, but it's worth shopping around if you have a few minutes.
  6. I've been getting the runaround on TAMP. I don't have an appvd code on my sep orders, but I'm going straight to ANG. Which MPF puts you in for it, your active duty MPF or your new one? Many thanks, nobody seems to know much about this.
  7. Pretty soon they'll be letting gays in and women non-pilots will be running majcoms.
  8. Part of it is our culture, we allow people to get away with shit too much, and pretty soon all our support staff acts like they work at the dmv.
  9. What are you going to do with that ISR on the border? The POTUS wants all these people to come in and be life long democrat voters, this debate is beyond fruitless until we elect people who actually value our culture and heritage.
  10. dying in a herk wheel well gives new meaning to the phrase "slow death."
  11. whats your question? If you're wondering if tmo will move you where you want, then the 8 year mark is where i believe it changes from home of selection/record. Your separation orders will be marked which one they will do. If you want to move somewhere other than home of record, then you shell out the difference it costs the gov'ment. If you want info on TAMP, do a search.
  12. theres still 5 more days left this month, you're not trying hard enough.
  13. Butters- you insist on saying "bankrupt" every time you say airlines. Between 121 carriers and the USAF, which one is aggressively hiring and which one is offering severance packages for pilots to quit?
  14. It's a culture thing, just 1 more thing for fighter guys to make fun of us about. I guess you don't need a flag on your uni when you never leave the moa/pattern. Also, please confirm that the postal service is influencing our uniform policy, that would clear a lot of things up for me in the last few years.
  15. why would you want to wear the flag of such an oppressive nation?
  16. Just think of all the AQ or other jihadis that are blending in and crossing right now. Remember these days as when our country and way of life died.
  17. Be social, but don't be known as a drunk. Fly your ass off and never let people make you log "other" time. Excel in your job but dont act like a suck up. Realize your commander is a human being and not a deity, feel free to talk to them as much as you want, they can give you pro tips that are valuable. Realize that your assignment out of UPT is probably the most control you will ever have over an assignment, after that you are tribute to AFPC flesh peddling. Your career is a chess game, if you kick ass in your current spot and keep in mind your next 2 moves, you're in good shape. Good luck
  18. Haha, he did go to florida state, I'm impressed he can even read
  19. In ww2, men prayed to get to 30 or whatever it was bomber missions to go home. Today we plan trips to get 2 tax frees at once. I think we've strayed pretty far from that generation.
  20. Beers on me if somebody asks the CSAF in the next town hall why we have a military for a country with no borders? Is an attack on Mexico/Guatemala now an attack on us? I know it's not his policy, I just want to see if anybody cares.
  21. this is still a good place to come if you're looking to avoid TDYs. If you can cope with shift work and never leaving the ground, its an incredibly stable life.
  22. I've been shot at too 3hole, but since I have a different opinion than you I guess I don't have a say in this. You have a bright future in the Democratic party.
