Care to make an argument instead of clutching pearls? Please tell me how your service, or mine, has defended the constitution from enemies, foreign and domestic. Please tell me how we have more freedoms now than when when we joined the military. While you're at it, make a case for all of the service members that were killed in Afghanistan, Iraq, and other hellholes in the last 25 years. How did they die for the constitution? How are the millions of dead civilians in line with the constitution? How is going to war without declaring war in line with the constitution?

Please point to me the exact phrase in the Constitution that allows for the FBI to exist. There are millions of things that go against the oath we all swore. The oath is useless and Constitution means nothing. None of us actually defended the Constitution. We supported and continue to support our destroyers.

Those that write a letter to get passed over or decline continuation are not entitled to separation pay.

For any '14 people on their first board or '13 people facing their second after getting passed over: If you are at all interested in getting out I can share what I learned through my process of writing a letter to the board and cutting more than a year off my UPT ADSC by getting passed over a second time. I was hired by a legacy airline that asked zero questions about rank, timing, OPRs, additional duties, job titles, or any queep that only matters in the Air Force. If you want out early you can 100% do it by playing by their rules. PM for details.

Did you know that the year two pay at UPS for first officers is $206 per hour/~173k per year minimum? After ten years when you're a captain, you're pulling in $344 per hour/~$289k per year minimum. Heck, you don't even have to sign a ten year contract, live in Clovis, or deploy! Even a $75k per year bonus can't touch that.

I found a AT-802 manual that says the service ceiling is 12,500'. Did they add a pressurization system? What about icing protection? Can it go into IMC?

Nothing happened, nothing is going to happen, and she was never at any risk. She would not go if a deal had not been struck that ensures her safety while letting China save face.

Is the ceiling for that thing really 13,000'? Good thing we'll never have to go back into Afghanistan...or worry about MANPADS...

AFSOC doesn't even let dudes fly the PC-12, which is a single pilot plane, with only one pilot. Zero chance this happens.

People would roll over just as easily as they did last time. Med groups are still in masks and will be forever.

Imagine sitting in that thing for 8+ hour missions on a regular basis. How much storage does that thing have for piss bags? The best solution was turning the Dornier into a do-everything platform.

Holy god the new site is bad. One whole page just to show big ass buttons, a big ass picture of a dude sitting on his floor making arts and crafts, balance, and return YTD. I'd like to know how many tens of millions of dollars they paid to create this abomination.

Holy crap, 8 years? Just commission. I'd sure like to talk to anyone that signed up for that and find out why they did it.

I noticed that it didn't make the news anywhere. If there is nothing publicly available, I have nothing to add.
