    It wasn’t till I became an evaluator in AMC did I realize how common it is for OGs to be in the Sq CC and DO’s chili with things like evaluations and upgrades.  Constantly overriding the Sq CC’s decisions on things like Q3s and discipline. 

    That’s ok, Group CC’s are going away “soon”.

    Well, that's two big expensive pieces of hardware now sitting in the bottom of the black sea, for Putin's little 72 hour field trip he had planned. When keepin' it real...goes wrong.

    So I'm listening to a book Accidental Super Power, which pretty much hit on this.  Although I haven't finished the book yet, from a book that was written in 2014, he seems to have mostly shacked it on the current Russia vs Ukraine conflict.  

    It’s impressive how well called Russia/Ukraine. Interested to see if COVID affects timeline so his other predictions.

    Could the AWACS guys chime in, could the E-3 act as an ad hoc airborne ATC? And if so, why was it not used?

    Not an AWACS guy, but the wife was an ABM. They’d have been able to provide similar services as “Pyramid” used to, but they’d have had zero training or ability to control airfield ops.

    AFAIK, “Kingpin” was still operating as well, but I rotated home about a week prior to the end of the GIRoA.
