Leadership at the 'Deid
You can then mount said pringles can to the LNB end of a sat dish and BAM... miles of wifi range... some friends and I did this back in Jacksonville, Florida 6 or 7 years ago, although we found the whole sat dish idea to be a little difficult, the pringles can mod was pretty easy.

Raptors grounded over OBOGS issue
How does a UPT stud go about reading one of these safety reports? (Without it being just presented in a class)

Raptors grounded over OBOGS issue
Return of the Raptor: The F-22 fleet will probably be up and running again "soon," said Chief of Staff Gen. Norton Schwartz. In an interview Tuesday, Schwartz said he expects a report next week from the Air Force Scientific Advisory Board task force headed by retired Gen. Gregory Martin, which will offer a way forward regarding questions about the F-22's onboard oxygen generation system. Schwartz said last week's evacuation of F-22s from JB Langley-Eustis, Va., in anticipation of Hurricane Irene was a simple early implementation of the "return-to-flight" plan developed for when the F-22 grounding is lifted. Schwartz also said the OBOGS has been ruled out as a factor in last November's crash of an F-22 in Alaska, which took the life of the pilot. A more thorough investigation of the crash site was possible during the recent summer months and yielded recovered hardware and computer memory that made a more comprehensive analysis possible. Completion of an accident investigation board report, long delayed due to difficulties in assessing the wreckage, is expected soon, Schwartz said.

AFI 36-2903 and dress/uniform regs and issues
Mandatory attendance at a chief's panel tonight ( three chiefs mentoring ~150 studs), and somebody asked about Friday shirts, follow up question was about heritage and the ways the air force is killing it. Answers included "The color t-shirt you wear should have nothing to do with morale" and "I don't see how the color of the t-shirt you wear has anything to do with heritage" as well as "well all the younger airmen look up to you, and they see you wearing stuff and they want to do it too".

Information on PCS/moves/moving (DITY, TMO, DLA, storage)
If anybody's curious, I gave up and got the USAA Lt Loan instead.

Information on PCS/moves/moving (DITY, TMO, DLA, storage)
I've been searching, but I'm guessing I'm just not using the right terms... my google-foo must be weak today. Anyways, I'm just commissioned via ROTC, and I'm about to PCS to my first PDS. I'm doing a full DITY (probably not even going to bring more than 1K lbs of stuff). I requested the advanced operating allowance of 60%. Unfortunately, I can't figure out where to get said advance. The counselor from the TMO office isn't sure if I work through my gaining unit or through his base (Patrick AFB), or if I work through my detachment (I assume the least likely option). Anybody have any words of wisdom here? I've sent an email over to the NCOIC from my det, but I haven't started bugging people at my gaining unit or at Patrick (don't really care to start off on the wrong foot). Thanks a ton!

All Female F-15E Mission
They gave me $2.00... but because of this board I've learned how important it is to keep that shit to myself in the real world. I'd say I gained 69000 times more from three years reading this board than four years of marching in a square in ROTC. I, for one, hope the bitching continues. It's a great way for us SNAPs to learn something. Ironic?

Ordering Patches (name, morale, fun meter)
Great company. They take care of our ROTC order of nametags every spring, and they always give a super fast turn around time (<48 hours, 20ish nametags) and worked with us on getting them shipped direct to the det even though I paid with my card. No jacked up tags in our order. If they have a question about something, they take the time to call and confirm. Super thread hijack... I'm heading there in the summer, how are things in the dorms there? Chances of getting a duplex?

Gen Welsh - USAF Chief of Staff
What an amazing read. Sometimes being on this site too much makes my head spin with "Did I make the right decision" questions, but this speech hits home and I remember why I'm here. (158 days)

Seeing a fallen soldier home
I gotta think the airline wouldn't let any passengers that were actively bleeding from their faces onto the airplane. Maybe a couple of first class passengers needed some bloody noses.
