And then I will. I’m hoping that formal approval will be coupled with formally eased restrictions on vaccinated personnel. just for fun:- COVID-19 (Aka China Virus)

Trading a Ferrari for a Miata makes a lot of sense if: - you’re sick of the timeline required to train specialized drivers - you are a mustang driver jealous that everyone wants the Ferrari - you tire of payments on a car that wins races because no one cares anymore about winning races- COVID-19 (Aka China Virus)
I’m guessing mandatory by April.- WTF? (**NSFW**)

- Staying Beyond 20/Taking IDE
In AFSOC, IDE is not required for selection on the EAGLE list but the vast majority of command hires are IDE in-res graduates. Like, 99%. Bode, if command is an itch you have to scratch professionally then I encourage you to attend IDE and make senior raters aware you are interested in command. Command lists are the first cut, but hiring is always a smaller group. As others have mentioned, my experience is decisions have zero transparency and are entirely the luck of who chooses you. Control what you can control: your pedigree and your attitude. Ops command seems more competitive, but perhaps it’s because there are fewer. Good luck!- The WOKE Thread (Merged from WTF?)
That works fine, until the legitimacy of elections are suspect. Whether true or not, the perception of election fraud will grievously damage our system.- The WOKE Thread (Merged from WTF?)
Somebody does, otherwise they’d leave it alone.- The Next President is...
This post exemplifies the real crisis in our country: an inability to talk to each other. Your first paragraph is filled with assumptions you believe to be facts. Your second paragraph is also assumptions masquerading as fact. The foundation of a functioning democratic society is disagreements are civil and resolved by good faith conversations. That means listening to the other side and asking yourself “could they be right? Can I understand their viewpoint? How can I convince them of mine?” You’re right about one thing: we don’t have much left to talk about if “talking” just means I’m brow beat with your opinions. How do you think the country hold together when convincing conversations cease and power is used to force those you disagree with to obey?- Saddle up for Thailand?
Nobody cares about Burma.- COVID-19 (Aka China Virus)
Same reason it’s not decimating the homeless population in US. I wish we could have civil discussions about this but unfortunately civil discussion has broken down in our society.- What's wrong with the Air Force?
It seems we have different opinions on the man. However I know mine is an opinion, whereas you think there’s “absolutely no question” yours is fact. edited to add: sorry if this comes of like a dick, wasn’t my intent but it totally reads that way.- What's wrong with the Air Force?
No idea. Not being enlisted I have spent my career ignoring the position. My comment is based on personal interaction.- What's wrong with the Air Force?
Chief Wright was also terrible.- COVID-19 (Aka China Virus)
Exactly right. I only hear advocacy for lockdowns from those who are financially protected from the impacts. Additionally, I am unconvinced lockdowns are effective and unfortunately reasonable debate is impossible.- COVID-19 (Aka China Virus)
10 out of 21,800 doses from a single facility. Still decent odds but it helps to read the article.- COVID-19 (Aka China Virus)
Serious question- has anyone questioned the effectiveness of hand washing?- What's wrong with the Air Force?
Is this the dude who kept getting banned & changing his user name to come back?- COVID-19 (Aka China Virus)
If that’s the goalpost, ok. Confirm your position is we can cease mask wear once cases plateau or decrease?- COVID-19 (Aka China Virus)
When do we stop wearing masks? The goalposts keep moving.- AF Light Air Support Aircraft
Any flying hours programmed for the 2 arriving? And what’s your delivery plan for the scotch?- AF Light Air Support Aircraft
