  1. If you need a moral waiver, you're probably screwed for now. Those were easier to get when we had two large scale shooting wars going on. So give it a year and we'll have at least two shooting wars again.

    Arsenal. So both? Not Quicken or that kinda thing.

    I have a trust. I got it so I can share my stuff easier. Suppressors aren't a big deal crossing state lines/moving, assuming you're moving to a suppressor-friendly state SBR is a much bigger pain. I won't get any SBRs until I'm settled somewhere.
  4. I do think he should have been there. As much as he wants to pretend it's not, this is his war now. He's chosen this ill-fated advisor mission as the way forward. He needs to take a very personal interest in the success, failures, and hardships of those involved in the mission.
  5. I get he should have been there, but I would never want any President at any event that was personal for me. Funeral, wedding, bar mitzvah... he brings entirely too much pain for everyone else there to be worth whatever hollow statement. So maybe the family was glad he was playing golf.
  6. Friday at 1630: "Hey Major, would you please get comm to update my rank in the global?" "Yessir!" Friday at 1900: "Hey comm MSgt, the general wants his rank fixed now!" Saturday at 0700: "Airman, get into work right now and fix the global!!" Monday at 0729: "General sir, your email is fixed as you asked!"
  7. Damn allergies.
  8. I'm doing the same track, same term. I plan to use every flying schedule, exercise, deployment, database, air show, and open house I've worked on for my 7500 hours. As long as you can classify it as initiating, planning, executing, monitoring, controlling, or closing, it sounds like you'll be ok.
  9. Why would you rule it out? Push the button and make them tell you no. I have no idea what the 11F manning is right now (besides low), but I certainly wouldn't make their decision for them.
  10. If they'll sit in finance and fix my DTS/PCS voucher/DITY promptly via email, I say bring em on. But I agree, it's more social experiment on a captive populace by the California Democrat than a realistic future.
  11. The fees you've read about are for early withdrawals. As long as you don't cash out your TSP and put it in your pocket before 59.5, you're ok.
  12. You cropped out his "But for military" part, which I'm almost certain is how you pulled off your PPL-ATP. So you didn't even do the mil-comp commercial written?
  13. Edit: Nevermind - I was wrong.

    That's the SB 15 brace he mentioned. Google it.
  15. Doesn't seem like you're that confused. It all goes away. My current base has a stipulation about if you're in the top 10% or something of power users, then you get charged extra. Base housing is probably a pretty decent deal if you're a 2Lt. Probably not so good of a deal if you're a Capt and you get the same "CGO" house. Call the housing office and get on their list. They'll probably want a copy of your orders emailed to them. Usually once you leave your previous base, you're put on the list and they're assigned in that order. Don't know Laughlin housing office specifics, but I bet Hunt does.
  16. If you mean Osan or Okinawa, then you're in luck. Otherwise, I'm afraid not.
  17. Mil pilots can already use their 1042 (or equivalent) in lieu of a Class 3.
  18. Got it - thanks. I think the world might implode, though. At least 2 of us are grateful to be enrolled in an AF CBT.
  19. In the PMP program, was there interview and resume help, too? I was torn between the PMP and the other track because what I really want is the interview and resume help, but the PMP could be very useful if I end up pursuing a non-flying career.
  20. Syracuse has a thing that sounds like TAP, but better. You can get a PMP (Project Management) cert if you think it'll help you get a job. I'm going to try it out. https://vets.syr.edu/education/employment-programs/
  21. I don't even know what half of my ribbon rack is without looking at a cheat sheet. This isn't even close to WTF-worthy.
  22. Nice job thinking out of the box and all. But save the Barney Fife lectures for high schools and FTAC. If I haven't figured out by now that drunk driving is dangerous and expensive, a shocking slideshow won't help.
  23. Isn't it a sad commentary that the highest ranking officer in the Air Force says, "Guys, don't waste your time with a Master's," and we say collectively, "Nice try, but no thanks. We don't trust you. We're not going to change a thing." I fear it's a bridge too far to fix the underlying issues.
  24. The issue is not with lodging. Your non-A does not have to say 100 days. The issue, however, is with your finance shop. Per the JFTR you can stay the other 96 days off base and they cannot legally refuse to pay you. You're a guard guy presumably staying with one unit for many, many years. You know your unit better than any of us. Will it burn bridges to spend several grand extra out of the budget? Sometimes what's legal and what's right are different.
