    If you’re too dumb to grab your booze before starting your shift or after it ends…maybe you shouldn’t be destroying more of those braincells? I don’t agree with the why behind it, but I also don’t see 2200-0600L sales restrictions being unnecessarily burdensome. 

    Had to double check this wasn't Chang.🙂 Unnecessarily burdensome? No. Unnecessary useless bullshit? Yes.  

    This was done at Hurbie, 2008ish?, to stop DUIs, lasted a short few months. How about this idea. Reverse the hours and stop selling during the day because it promotes day drinking. Same logic eh. 

    Planning is cool but you do get a bit of the stink eye walking out of the express at 0630 with a 30 rack of natties on your way to crew brief.

    That being said I lived in Santa Rosa county for many years with alcohol sales restrictions. You learned to plan around those. Got to the Navarre Winn Dixie one night after a flight at 1155 got to the checkout at 1159, just made it.

    Not saying you agree with the restrictions

    As I understand it this was not a pre-planned strike. 

    The AC-130 was patrolling and noticed the launch, they followed the smoke trail back and conducted a self-defense strike.

    Cool, sounds like what I was talking about. Hopefully there was a witness that can tell all of his buddies what happened.

    I get the send a message thing but I would like it to be more of a surprise. Like, they don't know where it's coming from. They just know if they do something they will get the rain(cheesy movie). Wonder what weapon they used in this attack. I remember back in the day(even before CHs time) when nobody outside of the small community knew what a gunship was.

    I'm still confused that anybody in the military would hold a general to some sort of higher expectation. If anything my experience demonstrates that they are less likely to impress. 

     

    These are the people that taught themselves to love the taste of shit just so they could one day be a general. The ultimate "yes men". They were not promoted in the field due to battle competence.

    The list of them could be its own thread.

    I don't know what that zipper is made out of but if they built airplanes out of that same materiel they would be indestructible

    disagree. we are amazing at it with a proven track record.

    when we fight american versions of "war" we aren't good at it.

     

    take the gloves off, remove concerns about ROE and collateral...watch out.

     

    Yep, too bad we haven't been able to take the gloves off since WWII, maybe Korea?
