  1. How many places have you been where you were eating MREs?
  2. It's also possible he wrote the article based on what he was told was said.
  3. The predator is also a modified off the shelf product...
  4. Mine always opens to Notifications as well.
  5. I bet it's like The Fatigues (Seinfeld), promote him so we don't have to fire him.
  6. You can always check reqs on the etca website. But otherwise, as alluded to above, there's going to be some waiting involved, and then figuring your TDYs out through sq/base training shops. The pipeline isn't exactly quick or smooth, so stay calm.
  7. Maybe he's been carrying on a fight with ISIS that he would never have gotten the chance to attempt in the BUFF.
  8. Speaking of publicizing names and addresses: Islamic State threatens specific military personnel Some dude sifting through hundreds of PA articles, no doubt, and some PA units are more sensitive to OPSEC than others, apparently. I'd love to make a "don't talk to the media joke," but this seems serious.
  9. I know the 2020 (or current) contested threat picture is ugly, but for the low conflicts we keep engaging in, the A-10 is pretty cost effective.
  10. Their logic about the A-10 not being survivable in contested CAS environments is pretty flawed if they're proposing that UAVs are (which is what I'm reading out of the fact that we should keep them instead).
  11. Looking at the historical data should show that drops are unpredictable, and, like Brabus said, figure out what you want to do and go for it.
  12. Was the EFMP acceptable solution stationed at Laughlin with care in San Antonio? In that case, EFMP isn't working.
  13. This is pretty much what The Atlantic article said was most likely: it will fall apart from within. Hopefully it continues.
  14. Did I miss a trinity circus while I was in the vault today?
  15. Beats being grounded because you didn't do so hot on your algebra test.
  16. There are definitely ones in there with 12 and 15 year sentences. Either way, different charges have different sentencing specifications. It's tough to critique when you don't know all of the details.
  17. Notable & Quotable http://www.wsj.com/articles/notable-quotable-1424391757 Regarding the restraining order against an Oregonian college student for looking like a woman's attacker
  18. Thanks; I hadn't seen anything about it yet. This just in: the F-35 won't be able to use light sabers until at least 2025.
  19. But first, question: are other platforms carrying this block of SDB yet, or is this sensationalism?
  20. The L Mav (laser guided, big improvement on the E) is relatively new. A-10s were considering them for moving targets when strafe was inappropriate last I heard, since they don't carry the G54.
  21. If so, plenty of PLFs in a rock pit.
  22. Is the one Fairchild day the Emergency Parachute training or whatever? Usually done at the same time as your SERE course, but since you didn't need it then, may be having to return now. Spokane's not bad.
