So GSC isn't getting B-1s? Odd...I thought the Bone could drop nukes, too.

There is a reason they teach CRM stuff like channelized attention in flight school.

RIP, Marine. Semper Fi.

[New Weapons School patch]

Pretty sure it's part of the AMC supplement to 36-2903 that directs the wear of the flag for us heavy folk. Not 100% on that, though - I don't have the AMC sup, and I'm not interested enough in confirming it to go searching for it.

Must be. I went to school in Charleston and spent a good bit of senior year on base with one of the squadrons. Everybody wore the flag. You're right, probably an AMC thing. Never saw anybody that I can recall wearing a wing patch.

Pull the ######ing it-used-to-be-gay-ass-but-now-it's-so-watered-down-it's-too-meaningless-to-even-be-recognized-as-gay-ass Weapons School patch off.

Put the American flag back on.

Here's some shit. When I tried wearing my flag patch as opposed to my wing patch, I was told it was "against regs". How's that for ######ed up?

Which Historian are we talking about? The USAF Historian, or the Nellis Historian?

The current USAF Historian is an F-4 Patch Wearer. Getting rid of the division patches doesn't sound like something he'd do.

I thought that little blob looked a bit like the old Phantom mascot. Maybe a little slight of hand?

[New Weapons School patch]

That bigass blob up top...I see all the different Herks on the patch already, but (as much as it wouldn't make sense throwing this in with the aircraft views), if you look at it the right way it kindof looks like somebody's idea of a specter. Maybe meant to represent the gunships? I dunno, just a thought. Doesn't look like any kind of plane though, that's for sure.

[Form 16s, do they matter?]

OK, for one, legally owning firearms will have no impact on a person's security clearance. Everyone knows I have a decent collection of guns, and most of the people I work with do as well; and we all have TS/SCI clearances.

Secondly, are you sure that the little incident in question was actually against the law? That would obviously depend on where you are; but here in Texas it is quite legal to carry an unloaded rifle or shotgun in public. Just because your roommate's guests freaked out about it doesn't mean it needs to be addressed by your PAS. Is there more to this story? Otherwise, you really shouldn't be receiving the Form 16 unless there is more to it.

Lastly, whoever this FGO is that is targeting you because of some crap that goes on in an Internet forum is, he needs to be called out as well. Unless you have violated some law/reg, it is none of his ######ing business and he shouldn't be sending anonymous emails to a Colonel. I hope your PAS has a little chat with him about this inappropriate behavior.

But, all this is based on what you are telling us is the absolute and complete truth. I am not calling you out, but I have long learned from experience that there is always at least two sides to every story (if not more)...

Cheers! M2

Sounds like a d-bag of a major trying to screw some cadet over. The bullshit flag definitely needs to be thrown on that one. As to the form 16, it doesn't matter. Nothing in ROTC matters once you get on AD.

[The National Anthem]

Awesome PPT! While I'm not sure how I feel about saluting in civies, it pisses me off to no end when people sit there and run their damn mouths while the Anthem is being played. The flag means something, stands for something amazing, and we should take the time to recognize that.

Ziploc,

Contact me at kaerfsusej at yahoo.com for more info. I just graduated and can give you some more info about the program if you want it.

Likewise. You can PM me if you have any questions. I'm only about halfway through the program, but if I don't know the answers to your questions I can probably find someone who does.
