I signed a 2 year bonus in 2017. They offered me a second bonus this year. I decided to PCS one more time and signed a 3 year deal. I was planning on being a free agent, but that would be dumb if I don't take take the money.

Here is a link to the Rand Study the AF is considering, so why did I just sign a 3 year bonus?: https://www.rand.org/pubs/perspectives/PE309.html

Is it legit to accept the bonus although you head off to a non-flying gig?

Thanks Cyber. Now I can't pay my water bill. How is this going to cripple China though? https://taskandpurpose.com/nsa-cyber-weapon-american-cities

Posting trashy photos here is kind of a bash against women. I don't know that lady, but I'm pretty sure she doesn't need you posting photos of her past here. Have a bit more respect. That is someone's wife, daughter, or she may not be on this earth anymore. Who knows. If you are going to try and bash people wives or girlfriends who have successful careers despite loving a military man with their own successful career, then I highly suggest you look at the state of your marriage. Maybe there is some jealousy shrouded in your posts because your significant others Uber job just can't pay the bills anymore. She should stop giving out so many free rides, but at least when you PCS she will always have work.

Surprised their CC wasn't canned. FE Warren nuke maintainers caught drinking alcohol at missile alert facility https://www.airforcetimes.com/news/your-air-force/2019/05/24/fe-warren-nuke-maintainers-caught-drinking-alcohol-at-missile-alert-facility/

Spot on. I have never asked my old lady to sacrifice for me. Marrying or dating a high potential woman (HPW) means someone is going to have to sacrifice for every PCS. That can create strain, stress, and resentment in a relationship or marriage.

Great story! One reason I came to AETC was to share my flying stories with students and encourage them to fly. I saw my first air show at Mathis Field while attending tech school. My tech school had a booth set-up for food at the air show. Ironically, I obtained my PPL from Mathis Field. Got to take the mighty T-6 there x-country too. And I had to divert to Mathis Field in my MWS aircraft. I'm surprised students know what pilot wings look like because they inquire about them and so do their parents. I had a TRS/CC during a staff meeting ask me what my badge meant when I first arrived. Talking about an awkward silence in the freaking room!

Nope, but my unmarried ass has a sugar momma who is an engineer holding it down in a great place to live and work. She has a great career and neither one of us sacrificed our goals or careers. When I walk into a room with her I am very proud of her accomplishments because she builds highways and bridges across the state that everyone utilizes. 🤣 Can you say the same thing when you walk into the room with your old lady or does she jet toward the punch bowl just to get away from you?

You are speaking from an officer perspective, speaking of which you are vastly out of touch. Don't speak for everyone. Most enlisted live paycheck to paycheck. Additional income is necessary at times. As a prior, you can save your ass off and still not get ahead. I'm not even married.

I have dudes walking into my office with family problems. I tell them I cannot execute the mission without their family affairs being in order. Your family does play a role in executing the mission. I need dudes who can delegate and punch at COB, not one minute late. If you have to leave early for your kids activities, that's okay with me too. If you are having family problems, let me know and I'll give you a day to recage with the wife especially. I should be the last person to leave the office. I have to tell dudes to get out of the office on a Friday afternoon and go home to their families. When I see people staying late, it's for promotion purposes in my opinion. I tell those individuals I need leaders who are about efficiency, getting tasks accomplished earlier so you don't stay late, and who believe in family first. If you're a workaholic, then you are going to lead the same way. The CC and Super determine who gets submitted for strats for enlisted. The 3 dudes who stay late I noticed, none of them were submitted. A MSgt was asking my NCOIC if there is more he can do. I heard my NCOIC telling him what I need you to do is go home to your family.

So true. I'm not even married. I have had CC's ask why my old lady doesn't follow me around. Because she has a great job in engineering. Then I get a puzzled look from them. I say she makes a lot of money 💰 and I leave it at that.

I copied the allegations directly from the Military.com article in my Google feed. AF Times just posted their story today. The source was the USAFA who put him on blast as pointed out in the original post by "the school said Thursday." Didn't care to post the link yesterday, but since you asked: https://www.military.com/daily-news/2019/05/19/special-operations-pilot-faces-charges-raping-child-under-12-years-old.html https://www.airforcetimes.com/news/your-air-force/2019/05/21/academy-major-accused-of-rape-molestation-faces-article-32-hearing/ AF Times “It must be emphasized that charges are merely accusations, and the accused is presumed innocent until proven guilty,” the release said."

The phrase "accused of said allegations" must have totally escaped your vernacular? You know what accused means and I surely don't have to point out the definition of allegations either right. If you think you are correct, sue the writers of the articles from Military.com and AF Times in court and see how that turns out in front of a real judge. Tell AF Times, Military.com, and the countless other online sites to remove their articles. You're just preaching to the choir on your soapbox of righteousness.

If you haven't seen any of the episodes, everything in this forum is a spoiler.

Sailors ranked female crew and the sex acts they wanted to perform with them, Navy report says https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2019/05/19/sailors-ranked-female-crew-sex-acts-they-wanted-perform-with-them-navy-report-says/ We must have some Dumb & Dumber folks in the ranks for stuff like this to keep happening.

WTF did I just watch for 1 hr 20 mins? When did Westeros become wheelchair accessible? Bran didn't want to be Lord of Winterfell because he is the three eyed raven. But he watches Westeros burn, could have stopped it, and now he is in charge. Sansa the snitch. "Winterfell will always be free." "Bran can't father children." How do you know he can't father children Sansa? I won't be watching your movie Dark Phoenix.

There are DO jobs available if that is what you want. I wonder if this is a reason why we get slammed on promotion boards for not taking on other types of leadership jobs. Being an AC or MC is a leadership job.

Old lady is in Cali and she would be 6 hrs away.

I asked AFPC what can I do next because I don't feel challenged enough in my DO position. Everything just feels really slow. I was offered Staff, C-12s to Saudi, or Edwards. They noted I have 3 short tours already and asked if I was married. I am single going on 19 years. The functional didn't specify why, but I can't crossflow to another MWS. I'm on a 3 year stab tour, but AFPC said I can leave after 2 years. I just need my non rated CC's blessing. Figure I would ask her in a few months. AFPC needs a response by Jan 2020.

I was wondering if rated flyers accept DO positions outside of the flying realm and whether or not it is viewed as good or bad? My GP/CC was telling me they had an A-10 guy as a CC on a non-flying training base.

Are C-12s to Saudi or Edwards worth it?

Have you ever had anyone go outside the flying world and become a DO as an O-4? For example, I was handpicked for my DO position.
