  1. Gentleman, I apologize for derailing the thread. All I meant was that one cannot control what happens to something once it leaves your possession and direct control, it is unfortunate and wrong that these women were taken advantage of and exploited, hopefully they will be more careful in the future.

    I definitely don't view women this way, it was a poorly constructed post meant to demonstrate personal accountability, however I did not take into consideration my audience and how words, thoughts or ideals will translate over the internet on a forum, especially when using less than professional vocabulary. It was not meant to be literal or a reflection of my character or person, more about what folks will do, that you can't control.

    I sincerely apologize for any alarm this caused. Please forgive me for making a mistake that I certainly will not repeat in the future, hope you all have a great day.

    Redshift, is hooking south for green vector.

  2. You guys want to know the opinion of someone who is not in the military? Those female marines and sailors only have themselves to blame. Two generations ago making videos of sexual acts was simply not something that you did and to be honest if they never wanted others to see their nasty then they should of never allowed themselves to be filmed, taken the pictures themselves (selfies and sending them around), etc.

    Basically they want to be a sloot and then wonder why the man didn't respect them. No man respects a sloot, we dont wife sloots and certainly don't bring them home. That's why the pics were shared on a private FB group.

    End of the day the V is the more valuable commodity and they have an obligation to protect it. It's called PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY. The only ones responsible are the women who shared the pics expecting that they would never be seen by another soul, that's stupid and that's not human nature. Especially when you're not with that crazy chick anymore and you show your buddies how much of a freak she was for a laugh.

    They want to take what makes a man a man. The sooner the military stands up to these crusading feminist and just say what needs to be said to them, "take responsibility for yourselves!" The better.

    I honestly don't know why the DoD (including USMC, AF, and USN) wants to turn it's house upside down to placate a bunch of raging feminist because some sloots made a bj video or send snaps of her snaps. It's so STUPID!

  3. It was Russia.  100%.  That is a fact.  The Russians don't even deny it.
    The entire US intelligence community is united in disagreeing with you.  The Democratic President, the Republican Speaker of the House, the Republican Majority Leader of the Senate, and many other congressional leaders on both sides of the aisle agree it was the Russians.  The GOP-controlled Senate is planning hearings on the subject.
    All of these national leaders are basing this belief that it was Russia on having access to the entire breadth of classified sources and methods at the disposal of the USG.  What are you basing your opinion on?



    So what you're really saying is, let's ignore the criminality Hillary Rodham Clinton, John Podesta, and the DNC because their crimes were revealed by a third party. That is what you are saying.

  4. This is how. Based on your SNAP status and your not-so-subtle, Russia-leaning screen name, you may be one of Putin's operatives described in the article!

    Redshift actually refers the how a tactical aviation radar works or redshifted light in astronomy. I have American roots dating to the 1600s, family in the revolutionary, civil war and every conflict that America has been involved with, so you with that said, kindly GFYS.

    Secondly the source is the WASHINGTON POST who hates Donald Trump. Two tools for you today cause that's what you are, calling me a Russian. I'm the furthest thing from it.

  5. Toro I think he's referring to the course designation for the RTUs, not callsigns.

    I have no idea and can't understand why anyone would really care.

    Just curious. Almost everything in the AF makes some sense (careful saying that around here, but not in that context :P) or is backed up by some documentation. Just why are they letters and not numbers, what decides the class name. Nothing makes sense in the upside down world of class naming even on spread sheets ordered by base and even class size. There's no pattern and it seems random.

  6. That's where I don't agree is that Russia had a profound effect on our election. Even *if* it was proven they hacked the DNC and Hillary they exposed the underbelly of a corrupt disgusting monster. Folks act as if the content of the leaks weren't true.

    Believe it or not they are coming out with articles as of 18 hours ago that many believe it was our own intelligence community that leaked the information to Wikileaks.

    I just refuse to believe that Russia can have any possible effect on the outcome of our election. I mean for crying out loud just how exactly can they influence the US population when our own media fails miserably at the job as hard as they try? How are they convincing Mr and Mrs middle America that they should vote for whom Russia supposedly supports?

    My point is, this particular "issue" is a distraction that has no bearing on the outcome of the election and only serves to undermine the legitimacy of the President Elect, divides the nation, is not in our best interests. They are trying to steal his place in history because of false notions on Donald Trump.

  7. The DNI absolutely said that the Russians conducted offensive cyber operations to interfere with the US election process. That much is not in disputed whatsoever.

    What is currently up for debate is what the Russians' intent was. Was it to sow general confusion and disruption or were their efforts specifically intended to hurt Clinton and help Trump?
    The CIA apparently concluded in a classified assessment briefed to Congress that the intent was specific.

    The DNI apparently isn't 100% sold on those conclusions, and communicated while they don't disputed the CIA's conclusions, they can't prove them either.

    Look, I'm not in the camp saying Russians hacked the election and that's the reason Hillary lost. There were a lot of factors at play, including her own weaknesses as a candidate and Trump's particular strengths in the states that ended up mattering. Trump won the electoral college and will be the next President - that's a fact. But the reason a bipartisan group of senators is investigating Russian involvement is because it 100% happened and no matter the intent, it's bad.

    I don't want foreign powers interfering in our elections to help either my allies or my political opponents and neither should anyone else. The Russians do not have our interests at heart and I don't want them hacking the RNC or the Trump administration any more than I want them hacking the DNC or the Obama administration.


    Except the POTUS, the media and other parts of the federal government declared from the high heavens above in no uncertain terms that Russia was NOT involved or hacking the election in October when during the debates the subject of election rigging was brought up and Hillary deriding that she couldn't believe her "opponent" wouldn't accept the peaceful result and transition of power and now those same people want to say that Russia hacked the election?! Give me a break.
  8. Does anyone know the convention that the USAF uses in its B-courses? I can't find any regulation or any other document that dictates how it is decided.

    For example 16-EBG at Luke or 15-BBH at Holloman. They aren't always the same even at the same base. Does anyone know what or how the letters are decided?

    Thank you for your time!
