Just remember that the "J" is silent...

I recently bought a house and got a quote for our homeowners insurance and it was $2000 more a year compared to other companies like AllState and Farmers Insurance. We ended up going with AllState because we bundled our homeowners, vehicle, boat and some life insurance and it came out to almost 1/2 of what USAA was charging. So, now all we have with USAA is our checking account, credit card and investments and have taken our business elsewhere with everything else.

Great guy and very chill...

Isn't that what I said?

They included my pre-separation physical with my annual PHA. Just make sure you have the docs document any problems you think you may have so that when it comes to the VA, it is all in your records.

Nope, I didn't, once I saw the pics all reading ceased.

They showed us the Whiz Wheel at PIT just to remind us what it looks like then prompty put it away. Everything is JMPS or accomplished with a calculator now on the -38 side.

I grew up in Western Iowa directly below a MOA and my parents house was used as a turn point on a low-level route and I remember growing up watching and listening to planes fly by. I distinctly remember a Buff flying over our house so low I could see the pilots waiving down at me or seeing F-4's and F-16's flying along the river at the bottom of the hill where my house was. Those were the days that pushed me to really wanting to fly and eventually be a military pilot. So, yes, there are many ignorant people in Iowa but most are bleed red, white and blue and love the low flyovers and airshows.

"The Guard is now investigating and the pilot was sent back to Jacksonville, Fla., on a commercial flight." How else would he have flown home unless he was there to pick up a jet also?

A 50 year old transexual lesbian that is 6-foot-8 and playing women's college basketball! People can't make this crap up....

“For crying out loud, I served 26 years in the military. I was too busy shooting 30 mm out of my A-10 at the Taliban and al Qaeda to spend any time in a kitchen.” Classic....

Got this on my .mil account today. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ "On 04 September 2012 the Assistant Secretary Defense for Public Affairs noted that the Department believes the recently published book “No Easy Day” contains classified and sensitive unclassified information. As has been reported in the press, the author did not submit this book for pre-publication review that is required by non-disclosure agreements he signed.

Do tell us the facts then for us simple people....

I don't know which is worst, actually committing the act with housekeeping and admitting to it or re-telling the story for all of us to think about.

What is wrong with you!

Damn, thought it was going to be this again!

This thread just went down the track.....

Wuss!!

So, b/c of money and time we should pass everybody? That sounds like a great idea! Hell, why even have Phase 3? UPT should be shortened to 6 months and everybody should get their wings after T-6's. Imagine how much money and time will be saved with that concept!

While flying west of Eielson last summer... "Anchorage Approach, XXXX 69 level at 10,000 ft with a question" "XXXX 69, go ahead with your question" "Anchorage Approach, which mountain is Mt. McKinley?" "XXXX 69, it is the tallest mountain in all of North America and it is at your 9 o'clock" Needless to say, we all had our tapes running for future roll calls and we never heard another radio call after that response.

Any more words yet on the ANG/USAFR units getting cut? Heard from some ANG bubbas that the cuts were a proposal and none have been approved yet and they are keeping their original jets. Just wondering b/c this will have a direct affect on my potential future...

Yes, having the microphone inside a mask that is sealed to your face will drown out the planes outside noise. Also yes, the O2 masks seal to our faces and are tested before each flight to make sure there is no leaking and to make sure you have a good seal.
