EA?

It was true in 2010. Para 5: "All Air Force MARS phone patch stations have sponsored (toll free) phone lines by SPRINT telephone service for personal calls, and worldwide DSN access for official calls." Throw this in your helmet bag or IFG, also comes in handy when you need to crush a newb.

How do you 'taint' someone? Sounds painful.

I get it, that's a "he's old" joke. Fuck you.

Alright, I give up. WTF is a 29B?

Didn't know he had the holstered weapon on him? Uh huh. I wonder who made the anonymous call...

That's what I thought.

What a sweet signature block. Very informative. Every time you post you start like 27 new threads.

I'd hazard a guess that IF the fleet your thinking of departs, it won't affect that area as dramatically as you fear. There's a LOT more going on in and around that area than say a Clovis or other isolated base. I'd say you have as much to fear from buying in a known flood plain than anything else.

Just trying to manage expectations son.

Weird, that's what your Mom told me last night. I have to admit, it freaked me out that she knew my bedroom nickname... No worries. I found it interesting that he admitted a grudge against the Air Force going into the SECDEF job. The spin is a bit much, but I also couldn't help but notice the standard "AF can do no wrong" approach taken by the author. Not surprising, considering the publication.

After you go to FT, you'll realize just how dumb this statement is. Meaning it is highly unlikely you'll have to draw on that emotional reserve, unless you're A) an incredible pussy or B) tempted to bail because of the overwhelming lameness.

Pipe down, don't get in the way. Agreed. Glad I checked the ROTC "lounge" for the second time ever.

Thank you. Don't forget the underbite.

Velvet furniture, huh? Sounds nice. I'm sure you already know the answer, but what's the weight-bearing capacity on those floors?

Did you ask Diane if vomit on the ceiling forfeits your security deposit?

I was talking to a former missileer about this very thing the other day. He described a question regarding high beams while driving. My first reaction was, "They ask you a question about using headlights?!?" Yes, yes they do. Question went something like this: You're driving to site 69 at 2200L with your high beams on. You observe an oncoming vehicle. Q: When are you required to go to low beams? A: 100m Correct. You continue on your drive and observe a second oncoming vehicle. Q: When would you turn off your high beams? A: 100m? WRONG! You never went back to high beams after the first vehicle. Gotcha' fucker! Sorry, FAIL, your career is over. Really? I mean, REALLY? So you use trick questions about trivial bullshit to evaluate performance and general knowledge? Fantastic. No wonder morale is in the toilet.

Classy. His parents must be so proud. I think I'll follow him on twitter...just for the hell of it.

Not true. Lived in Arlington Forrest, near Arlington Hall. Rent was affordable and I had a ten minute drive up 50 - zero tolls, manageable traffic, and no commute-related headaches for three years. Your parking statment is misleading. If you do not take the Metro stipend, you will have zero issues getting a (free) North parking lot pass. Again, if you're willing to rent, you have a lot more options.

It was a rhetorical question, meant to be humorous. Thanks for the history lesson though (that's sarcasm).

Doesn't really answer my question.

I know the genesis and the outcome of this "experiment", but seriously, WTF thought this was a good idea? Pretty sure the second shot is from a KC-97.

That truly is the sad, WTF part of the story. At least he tried to make an excuse, "he was waiting for his wife on a bench outside a dressing room at T.J. Maxx".

Wait, are you Army?
