now they don't attempt large maneuver actions unless they absolutely pummel an area pre-strike with artillery.

Funny thing is this has been the Soviets modus since their invasion of Afghanistan.  Pummel the Muj w/ artillery and air and then follow up w/ and infantry sweep

And you likely never will in the GCS. All of my damage was done in the Herk.

Add to that neck pain and visual acuity loss from hours of NVG time......

Man I hope you were wearing your "USAF RETIRED" hat whilst sitting around that campfire lol

[World War III Updates]

Yep, LCADS-LV would've been adequate for that shithole

I've heard of being able to blacklist at SW, but haven't heard of a "way" to do this at UAL??

Guys there’s not a lot of ATC control over Somalia. Pretty easy to figure that out…and ignore it. 

This.....as someone who recently flew into/around/and over I can vouch for that statement.

[USAA]

Just switched from Geico TO USAA for car insurance only...........Geico was several hundred dollars more per year than USAA.  Also, just signed on for home insurance after dumping Grange (again several hundred saved).   Interesting 

[What's wrong with the Air Force?]

Omg....blast from the past.  Ole' 777.....don't forget to check six!!

[The new airline thread]

Reminds me of the Walle movie.... classic

I thought BLACKFACE was considered "offensive" and should not be used in normal diatribe.....oh wait  oops

[Belgium Armed Forces and the Belgian Club]

Ahh, the Belgium Club ETAR on Thursday nights......the memories

All in the name of "diversity and inclusion"

[WTF? (**NSFW**)]

Wonder if he would've had a chance given a little "tactical combat casualty care" at the scene.  Guess we'll never know.....

[World War III Updates]

"destruction of the military and governmental capability" sure sounds like the "elimination" of the Gaza Strip as a "sovereign" state.....going to get interesting

[The WOKE Thread (Merged from WTF?)]

Curious that alcohol didn't make the list.....surely not a contributing risk factor

[The Next President is...]

I'm skeptical.  I see an inordinate number of kids these days answering this question: 

"what do you want to be when you grow up" 

"a Youtuber"

Sad how in my generation the response would have been

"an astronaut, doctor, fighter pilot, an army man"

Indicative of anything?  The hell if I know, but an indicator of the kind of kids we're raising?  Hmmm

[Finally done in Afghanistan?]

Ah so the Abbey Gate IED pushed the timeline up.  Got it

[Finally done in Afghanistan?]

Thought the "pull out" date was set (by Biden) to 11 Sept (to conveniently coincide w/ the 20th anniversary).  Last C17 to depart was 31 Aug??
