  1. Hello....my name Bob. May you please speak with me for moment. Did you not attend African Youth council one time many year ago. A boooogalla, boooogalla, boooogalla....Ah ha ha. How many planes we count them. Give me break.
  2. Including the Albinos!
  3. Lead turn...almost showed you my belly didn't I.
  4. Yep....Really. Std Light Grey/Dark Grey/LGPOS/HOG banter....wouldn't expect any less....and neither should you lactose. EDIT: PS....it wasn't my squadron.
  5. I know Fang....world class patch...for a MudHen guy.
  6. Holy Crap...no one told me Ogre from Revenge of the Nerds had a sister. Put on your reflective belts boys for that run in.
  7. I’m gonna end up working in a lumberyard the rest of my life. What’s wrong with lumber? I own two lumberyards. I notice you don’t spend too much time there. I’m not sure where they are. A wise man once said–A flute with no holes is not a flute, A donut with no holes is a danish. Most appropriate: I think it’s time for the ol’ Billy Baroo. This is a BIG one Billy…Eighty..Thousand..Dollars…Billy..Billy..Billy Big Blue won't always let you fly "her" airplanes....horizons=expand young SNAP
  8. Following procedure is technique only--do not attempt to replicate: There once was a young light grey pup pulling out of dearm after a Mission CC upgrade at a Green Flag, the morning after a night of Bat Hanging in the Canadian -18 squadron bar....canopy up, puke over right side, canopy down, pull into chocks, check for evidence of "stomach bug". Upgrade ride passed. Just a story from the 80s--technique only--do not attempt to replicate. OL Patch
  9. Fail....not your job CMSgt.
  10. Exactly. Couldn't be said any better...get the guys on the ice to score. Keep'em safe. That is the mission. OL Patch PS--It was such a political crock of s...award that most SQs I was in never even submitted packages. Agree with CH...why publicize when there are people doing the "real deal"...how bout highlight the Pedros every frickin day until they come home!
  11. Dhahran is the correct spelling....lived there for a year on the economy not on a base...arguments need to start from a position of accuracy gents.
  12. Now I know you're having beverage.....
  13. It wasn't my SQ! Getting to old for this scheisse.....oh wait, Dang 41 that is so funny.

    Hate to add another old guy view but you might find it amusing. Picture this: Mid 80s, I'm a young Lt first assignment dude at Bitburg, SQ/CC calls me in and says we gotta a slot for SOS do you wanna go...I say no rather stay and fly BFM..he is one of the Vietnam era F-4 patches...his response was cool: I'll find someone else!

    Over the last four years, have observed two young outstanding MAF patch wearers working in a operational engaged 3stars HQ. What they have brought to the effort is amazing. Rainman is right...until they become the MAF leadership, change will be slow. As an old retired guy, I have faith--sort of--because I see the idiocy everyone bitchs about on BO.

    While I know what you're saying C17, learned a long long time ago that you don't need the patch to have credibility or be a "target". Do what's right every time and stay focused on who's important---Blue 4! OL Patch
  17. CH...dude quit hogging the popcorn--even though there's an empty seat between us for two men at a movie purposes--pass the bucket this way.
  18. Who's Pete...is he related to the man upstairs...
  19. My wife was in a fender bender. I slept on the couch at my office for the next week. Next was a plane ride with Waldo (Chuck Wald now retired 4button) downrange. One week later in the basement of an embassy further downrange til Dec 01 when Buzz got me out of Fort Apache. That's right.....I'm old!
  20. As always, I'm speechless. What great Americans. My favorite line "he didn't make sqdn/cc list (go figure) and retired". No shit...go figure!
  21. To pile on Brabus (C model division never used STS as you can imagine after the Kadena debacle).....I was being slightly facetious in my response. The expansion of the "Weapon School" concept from fighter to Intel, ABM, Space, Rotorheads, Stealth, etc...etc...has only reaped benefits for the entire community. Just a little miffed when he brought out his patch tool comment, Okay back to the regularly scheduled program...Hey yayaya Hey yayaya Hey yayaya
  22. Hey yayaya....Hey yayaya....Hey yayaya.... That's me doing the Apache/Sioux/Cherokee drum chant waiting for ClearedHot and Rainman to explain to me what a Tanker WIC really means to me....and also provide mutual support and roll in on thecloser2144 and help figure out what patches he would have interacted with.....probably had to be Intel patchs warning him of the significant risk involved with tanker track placement miles from a perceived threat or maybe he confused Bergman giving him payday advice with a WS debrief.....as cousin Eddie stated in "A Christmas Vacation"---"I don't know....what you goin do Clarke?" Back to the Sierra Nevada Torpedo IPA after work!
  23. HOLY CRAP....there's a tanker division at FWS...I mean FWIC...excuse me WIC? I'm a dinosaur! OL Patch yea I have a thought
  24. "It wasn't my squadron!" CH--I am now unable to be coherent due to the convulsive laughter you've caused. Good on ya!
  25. Holy Crap...Eagle guys flying near each other. When did that start. I thought they were all "Lone Wolf McQuade" types bent on single ship employment glory. OL Patch
