  1. Apparently Taliban starting to fly captured US Blackhawk Uh. that's not really flying...
  2. https://aviationweek.com/defense-space/coalition-fighter-shoots-down-uas-northeast-syria Word is a the AEW/CC (BG) shot it down
  3. Based on our current political leaderships COA? A resounding yes. Biden just wanted to pull the plug and wave the flag on 9/11 and say “see, my leadership brought all the troops home and ended the forever war” He chose….poorly
  4. Everyone back to the trailers to double up! Wouldn’t surprise me
  5. Curious to where they’re putting refugees at the Deid. I mean, its August and can’t recall facilities that would be able to accommodate thousands
  6. Oh yeah, they now have plenty of NODs as well. We no longer "own the night" Thanks Biden!!
  7. Makes me cringe to see all the M4s w/ ACOGS in the hands of the Taliban. Hell, looking at various news clips/pics the M4s outnumber the AKs
  8. We should've thrown a Hellfire into the Presidential Palace when all those Talibs were gathered around the desk (I know, before you counter, you can't chop the head off this snake). It is written into the Koran that is not verbotten to "lie" to one's adversary in order to advance jihad. In fact, it's encouraged! They're gonna tell us/the world what we want to here and then do the exact opposite in a few days/weeks.
  9. Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan Air Force up and running!! Good lord
  10. The other concept which is relevant in this case is the fact that the Afghan culture is based on constantly shifting alliances with whoever happens to hold the most power at the time. ANA was "slowly" crumbling the last few months. Soldiers saw the inevitable and began to change side en masse.
  11. The lack of planning for this one is truly astonishing. Pack up and leave during the height of the fighting season when the enemy is strongest. Why not wait till winter when they all head to Pakistan? Oh wait, because someone wants to establish the final day on 11 Sept. How ironic when that day comes and the Taliban plant that flag atop the US embassy. The long term negative optics on this will be painful
  12. slc

    Olympics

    Women's beach volleyball has been phenomenal as well!!!
  13. Nah, I'm vaxed, just curious as to the legality of "asking" for the vax record.
  14. Can local base medical "ask" you to send them a copy of your vax record (if received off base) for wing "tracking" purposes?
  15. Thoughts as to the scenario that will play out over the next 6-9 months? And our response? I saw on the news they were deploying Buffs to the Deid for the final "pullout" ? For what purpose?
  16. Question for those that have gotten vaccinated...how do you know it's still effective? Do you need a booster soon? If so, when?
  17. Drag queen show? Anyone care to elaborate?
  18. Aah we’ll be back in that hole in 6-9 months. I had a front row seat in ‘14 in Iraq for that debacle
  19. Doesn't surprise me in the least w/ the Niagara dudes. A unit culture derived from operating in the -130 mindset for decades is hard to purge. Kudos to those guys to still make it happen!
  20. 2.5 months vaccinated and still gets the virus....albeit w/ "milder" symptoms and hopefully no hospitilzation. Makes me wonder how this will all pan out in 6-9 months especially w/ various strains popping up...another round of shots?
  21. Are they doing ok? Mild symptoms? Age?
  22. 15hrs into it; restless sleep last night, chills, a few aches this morning, 5G location w/ iphone drastically improved this a.m. Overall not too bad!
  23. Anyone get the J&J vax yet? Any trip reports?
