General Petraeus resigns amid affair scandal
What choo talkin bout Willis? Misfortune? NASA leadership and "stigma" caused her to cheat on her husband and pepper spray her little friend's other girlfriend? Copy, not her fault.

ANG/AFRC Pilot Bonus
As the others said, no bonus as a TR, long-term man days or not. Additionally, even if you are able to get someone to offer you a 3 year set of orders (man days, not AGR) do not trust that person or those orders, i.e. have a back up plan. No one in AFRC right now can speak to money for April let alone 3 years from now. Nor can active duty. I know several guys who got PFI orders or other long term gigs with the promise of 3 years, but turns out the money was not there to back it up for the whole time...the cash is flowing 6 months at a time, which means it is all very iffy. Who knows if that paper is worth anything in a year. Just sayin'.

F-15C Sniper pods?
I think you are the slow one here. It is not classified. There is a way to confirm this event happened...by talking to dudes who did it. Several of us have. That doesn't seem to be good enough for you, which is curious to me, but I'm not emotional about that. Don't really care, other than that you've derailed this thread over it. Why isn't it on google? Who cares? You keep talking about this as some sort of significant event. These were not significant events, merely interesting to some and only due to the type of aircraft used. A truck and a couple airplanes getting strafed in the middle of DS are not particularly significant by any measure of the history of that war.

Yes you are. You are missing the fact that this is an internet forum, not a graduate class chat room. I bear exactly zero responsibility to footnote everything I say just to satisfy some anonymous clown. Not really sure what your agenda is. At least three people in just this small group have already said they know about this, including one who told the actual story. You can either accept it as true, or get the fuck over it. Either way, I don't care.

Good. So go look it up yourself. I have no responsibility to look shit up for you. This is the fucking internet. Now go away and don't come back until you've found it. It's out there.

I've heard a lot of generals talk about the importance of advanced degrees and how they contribute to creating better "thinkers". I always scoffed at that theory, especially given the quality of education we promote via the unthinking (ironic?) nature of the AF's education policy (i.e. treated as a square, subject matter is irrelevant and tuition assistance only pays enough for worthless degrees). But then I come on here and see posts like this and many of the previous ones where dudes simply cannot use their brains to think about problems differently at all I, for one, am quite glad to see the AF finally thinking a bit outside the container. It's been a long time since we did that on a proactive basis, rather than a reactive basis. Shit, maybe even a diploma mill degree would help some of you develop thinking skills after all.

Bentwaters Cold War Museum Needs Jets!
Do they have an LPA perhaps? They could take the jet, but would have to leave a ransom note.

Fair enough, but if you understood what this was really all about you might think differently.

I'd rather not try, thank you.

Better wait until next Friday. That way you can take a half day thurs as well and really piss off sof.

F-15C Sniper pods?
Im sure you would. Then give your jets to the guard and get them to use their money to buy the pods. Turns out that's what we did.

Well Chachi, I did provide my source. I know dudes who did it. That's my source. Given that the whole strafing thing was common knowledge to dudes who have been around the CAF for a while, I didn't really think it was fucking necessary to go on Wikipedia to find a different source just to prove well known facts to you.

Noted.

F-15C Sniper pods?
C-models strafed (and successfully blew shit up) in WW-Storm. It was a pick up game but it happened. There are lots of good reasons to get serious about strafing in the Mighty Mighty. But anything to do with slow moving aircraft (did you really say that?) is not even remotely why.

Guard money. AD is tagging along.

My bad. As you were.

Then shut the fuck up. Haven't we had this talk before?

Line Officer Reclassification Board
My point was not to actually have a TSgt write you an LOR. My point was that a recommendation from someone who does not even know who you are is fucking worthless...just like a recommendation from a TSgt.

Line Officer Reclassification Board
If they didn't know you, they shouldn't write a recommendation for you and you shouldn't ask. A recommendation from a TSgt that knows you well is worth more than a recommendation from a colonel who doesn't know who you are.
