    those "educated guesses" and "assumptions" have quite literally killed hundreds of THOUSANDS of small businesses, lives, fortunes, and futures. for what purpose? to save lives? sure.

     

    hope it was all worth it..."time will tell, sooner or later...time will tell" (bonus points if you can name where that quote comes from...hint its a computer game)

    Command and Conquer: Red Alert.

    I read an article recently that the AD accepted its final slick J model.  It'll be interesting to see which 3 of the 8 candidates in the guard get the J.  Should hear something official in the next few months.  Have consistently heard Ft Worth and Kentucky but no idea who the third would be now that Baltimore is out of the running.  

    Peoria had been pushing hard a few years ago for the J conversion. Who knows though.

    I seem to recall the Navy's flight boots had steel toes... but the AF didn't allow steel toes in theirs.  Am I remembering that right?

    Correct Huggy, steel toes are not approved for flight in the AF, and I think Navy required it only if you had ops on carrier flight decks. (It’s been a long long time since NAS Corpus Christi though!)

    I am authentically afraid of what the leadership will decide to call the USSF members.

    Maybe we can come up with some ideas on here then?

    Spacers? I’ve seen it used in some sci-fi books. Sounded ok in that context. Is there anything that folks in AF Space Command referred to themselves as already?

     Hope that doesn’t burn me IPZ if I don’t make it this year.  

    I’d say your odds are pretty decent for 1 below. Ours went up blank with a “P” if leadership didn’t feel we had a chance, so if yours went up filled out and with a “DP” you’re not wrong in being “cautiously optimistic”. Plus, unless there’s a big shake-up (regime change, UIF, etc) before your IPZ package is submitted, you should still get a solid push in the zone as well.
