  1. Adapted Text in WSJ: The Meaning of Their Service A retired four-star Marine Corps general on the clarifying effect of combat experience, the poison of cynicism and how veterans can help revive American optimism.
  2. Haha, yeah. Apache, Black Hawk, Lakota, Kiowa, Chinook, Iroquois... oh, every Army helo? Edit: juuuuust a bit late
  3. Mutated Viper HOTAS
  4. Assumption: Green is the sarcasm font. Probably also required:
  5. But I can still only have 50MB of emails, a la 1995 Yahoo!?
  6. https://www.military1.com/army/article/461498-general-mattis-next-mission-destroying-the-ptsd-victim-myth Don't suppose anyone saw this talk live? Paraphrase from the article, but Mattis thinks that the exhalation of victim status is not helping our people. He strongly encourages those who have seen combat to not let anyone label them broken, but to leverage the PTS as an opportunity for post traumatic growth.
  7. If that's the concern, I hope they're concerned said individual is insane first.
  8. Does the songbook not get double jeopardy protection?
  9. I think the least they could do is have a system that takes your number to call you back when there's a wait, because "5 minutes" is always 50+ minutes. It would save a lot of people having to wait on hold for indeterminate amounts of time.
  10. Our IAO has been running around all week, having to do with this. Sounds fun.
  11. No way comm fixes your personal computer any more than mx fixes your personal aircraft.
  12. The syllabus for UPT direct to RPA going fighters exists on the Spin Up end, but haven't heard of anyone using it either.
  13. There's a dude in our squadron who is unable to grow a mustache; should he talk to the SARC?
  14. How many places have you been where you were eating MREs?
  15. It's also possible he wrote the article based on what he was told was said.
  16. The predator is also a modified off the shelf product...
  17. Mine always opens to Notifications as well.
  18. I bet it's like The Fatigues (Seinfeld), promote him so we don't have to fire him.
  19. 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.
  20. Maybe he's been carrying on a fight with ISIS that he would never have gotten the chance to attempt in the BUFF.
  21. 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.
