My previous wish list last time they thought of bringing us back.

Well then, when are the English coming back to reclaim your country? Or the Natives? Any Incas still around? Ooooh, crocodiles, since they came from dinosaurs.

Fine, Putin is the best dude ever, such a big caring heart. He's Mr Wonderful and would give anyone the shirt off his back. All hail Perfect Putin, a true angel. He should get the Nobel Peace award.

Wonder how she would fare against Nikki Haley though.
I'm sure both are capable of saying "bitch, please" in a debate.
I say they go Thunderdome, no ref, two women enter, one woman leaves, the other via a stretcher. They can even shout policy one liners as they trade shots. The winner gets mad respect and shows the world they can kick ass.

Listening to those things doesn’t infect me, it helps me understand how to resolve conflicts to my advantage. Where might we agree? What are things they care about that we don’t where concessions might be made? What are sensitive areas where we might ascertain vulnerabilities previously unseen? How can we exploit their words against them? Who are the charismatic, intelligent leaders who have a chance of defeating us that we should target and kill? Who are the dumb ones we should prop up to weaken their organization? There are also tactical advantages: UBL, ISIS & NVA were targeted successfully based on analysis of items in the background of videos they allowed reporters to take; fucking dummies. I encourage that (Napoleon said never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake). So let’s all be mature and realize there is goodness here if we are smart enough to filter appropriately. And if hearing a different perspective challenges your own conclusions, that is healthy as well.
A big issue with that (underlined) is a large chunk of humans will see this, or have it shoved thru their Tiktok eyeballs, and adopt the forced opinion that the Ruskies are good. The US has a sizeable group of the dumb ones.
Putin won the interview.
How about Tucker take the tape, hand it over to the IC, and tell em to have at it, especially since Tucker was denied getting the WSJ released. Even better would have been if Tucker greeted him and gave him a Novichok handshake.

"justice"
Because he's an incoherent, bumbling old man? Sounds more damaging to his reelection campaign. I say the Special Counsel should release the interview for public view.

I truly look at this as a positive, just like anytime a leftist state passes more crazy leftists laws/taxes—perhaps enough people will see how crazy their states are becoming and reverse the trend, or they’ll move to a better state. 50 states, along with DC and the territories—find one that works best you and your family. California is beautiful…no way I would ever live there. If millions of illegals are willing to move (illegally) for a better life, others can do the same.
Concur. Just wait for some rat infested buildings to get fined a ton, or a few thousand restaurants for not registering their "pets" and then start calling all those critters "undocumented."

Does the AF really want a bunch of old salty dogs back in the Sq winning hearts and minds away from Big Blue?

WHAT? Maverick never dies!!!😡
I have yet to see archer though. is that a good or bad thing that it will end up like seasons 8-10?
Those Archer seasons are all dreams. End of season 7 he ends up in a coma. Which gave the writers a super wide berth to make up some funny shit.

One is a pilot wife for sure, so real? Wow, I think my wife might actually punch someone in the face if they asked her to be in something like this. But, whatever floats your boat!
Money. And a chance to get memed, made fun of, bullied online, and trash one's life.
American Fighter Pilot lost control and spun out to sea after a cringy naming ceremony in the Sq bar and got canceled. IMO, by CSAF, but I have no evidence of such.
Oh wait, this is on AFN? Well, its probably a new cast for "Don't shake your baby" PSAs and that super evil blonde girl that will make you leave your friends, stop going to school, and get you kicked off the team.... Ms Alcohol, aka, any girl.

I guess the navy didn't get enough recruits.
not sure how I feel about this. the revitalization of Top Gun with Top Gun: Maverick was amazing, but I just hope that it doesn't turn into one of those series that progressively becomes shit with the more movies they put out.
You do know he died when hs X plane disintegrated, right? The rest is a dream sequence. TG #3 will be like Archer, seasons 8-10.

<yawn> Still voting Trump. Sorry, but not sorry. Don't care what fake news say.

For you and anyone else walking in the Trump elephant train...
Trump shit on your Constitution and wiped his ass with your American flag. Enjoy drinking his piss.
And Biden is just as fucking dishonorable.

Pts = $ with mostly data management risk, not operations. They sit on your points (aka $) for you, collecting interest as well as deflate their value.
Not necessarily deflate their value, but set the value to whatever they want. A Points program is a company made currency.

I studied stuff ahead of arriving to UPT. Our Det had a Tweet - 1 and I got a copy. The internet was really becoming a thing and AF pubs were posted on the line. Lastly, I called the local copy shop in Del Rio and asked them to make me a copy of everything they had on file for UPT and mail it. So I read a lot before showing up, plus I arrived to UPT a few weeks early. All this meant I could spend more time on chair flying, understanding the pattern, etc. and a little less on the GK/book stuff. Mind you having not gone thru UPT, some of the stuff didn't make sense, but I knew what to memorize.

This can go for anybody, but when you weren't assigned to fly for the day and instead studied in the flight room for 12 hours, how did you guys go about that? did you just jam out those 12 hours incessantly or take breaks here and there to cool down?
Someone else is flying, so listen in on the brief/debrief. Do stuff with other studs. It's not like a school dance where you're shy to ask someone on the dance floor.

FAs should just issue a tool kit to everyone and asked them to fix the plane while in flight. Inflight entertainment will by youtube vids showing you how to do something, but with key parts missing in the video so you have no idea how they got the cover off. Anyone with spare parts leftover has to hand them off to the next pax taking that seat.

I hope she makes it thru UPT just fine. I also hope she makes a profile on BODN and gives all you ninny nannies a shit ton of ball bustin'. If so, she wouldn't be the 1st pretty lady to fly well. Google it. There's the T-bird, Malachowski, Kim Campbell who landed a battle damaged A-10, and not to mention the scores of WASPs, a few of whom I met at while staying a few nights before Oshkosh at my in-law's neighbor's house.
As for the media, the called her a Soldier. WTF, over?

Not mine, but I always liked that this one got passed the censors.
BTW, I found it on this cat's website, quite a robust collection: https://www.usafupt.com/

Scuttlebutt only at this point but I've heard ACC, AMC and GSC all go away and a new MAJCOM called "Combat Forces will be formed encompassing everything from Fighters, Bombers, Tankers, and Air Mobility in one giant dysfunctional command. Sounds like a giant flashback to the Composite Wings under good ole Merrill.
One ring to rule them all, bwha ha ha ha ha ha ha....

It's a Rorschach test cloud sticker. What you see is a projection of your psyche. So if rolled up by some chief/etc, and they claim it's stripper, counter with "its a white dragon kissing the earth and I got it at a Game of Thrones convention. I like dragons, don't you? And where do you get off saying my dragon is a stripper? And why do you hate strippers?" And walk away...

Ya, that never made sense to me. When I was there way back when, we worked in the SOF compound and I was surprised to hear they had this rule. On the flip side, the Navy O-5 exec (Hornet driver), would blanket approve our memo anytime we asked to pick up the entire squadrons beer allotment at one time. Do that enough times and you have a nice setup, especially when there were non-drinkers in the mix.
To your last comment, we all know damn well that the bosses we're doing that. If you're not in the Col club to drink their booze, make friends with the Guard squadron on base...
My time at DJ, the local Navy dudes ran a Ward Room, tent at 1st, then self funded/built a hard building. Open on Fri and Sat nights. Me and the guys would sip drinks, play corn hole, and bust chops. No drink limits, just a basic rule; behave.
And most did behave, save for a P-3 dude that hit on some other unit's lady officer and got shown the door after a little physicality. P-3 unit was banned for a month.
My boss asked if I went to the Ward Room. Yep, proudly. Got some work/networking done too. He mentioned something about drink limits and I mentioned the O-6 Scotch stash. We all behave and that's why it works. Our little gang had zero issues. Treat people like adults, they often behave like adults. Such a foreign idea to many higher ups.

At a certain point you realize that most people don't actually have political views. They have political positions. The difference is that a view requires research, dialogue, analysis, and for many things political, there's not a lot of reason for someone to do that. Why learn about abortion if you're not getting an abortion? Should the average American really have an opinion on Palestine when they don't even know where it is on a map?
So whereas the military leadership class used to be conservative, it wasn't because they had conservative views, it was just because they wanted to be a part of the group of people who had conservative positions. Their superiors.
Now that we are in a rapidly changing political environment thanks to the spread of populism, the military leadership class is suddenly seeming much more liberal than the lower ranks, because the political establishment of Washington is fiercely anti-populist, including most of the legacy Republicans.
They were never conservative, and they're not truly liberals or progressives now. They're just yes-men. Groupies. Sycophants who will morph into whatever they believe will please their bosses most. And since Charlie Kirk runs on a platform of "government is the problem" and makes no exception for big-government Republicans, obviously the power players on Washington are going to despise him. And like good little soldiers hoping for a reward, the generals will follow suit, threatening the careers of anyone who dares question or criticize the political "leaders" the generals hope to please and one day join.
Oh wait, before I go...
I see what you're saying, but I cannot vision it. Is that what you mean?

The 'John Wayne Saloon': How day drinking went undetected at one of America's top military bases
No more day drinking and does not speak well to the survival of other secret drinking venues...IYKYK.
And after his inspection, the General went to his office, opened the cabinet, poured 3 fingers of something smooth, stared out the window and wondered, "what the fuck is this world coming to?" and took a swig.

Late to Rate
in General Discussion
Posted
In all seriousness, most of my class was late rated. Many went on to command, a few even at the wing level.
So show up, kick ass, and chew your bubblegum, even if you run out of gum.
