  1. Out breeding white Europeans, white chicks have forgotten what their number responsibility is
  2. My speculation the US will negotiate a new SOFA with Denmark in Greenland similar to the agreement with the Marshall Islands, not being familiar with the social construct of Greenland, how much of the population is really tied to a Danish identity. In WW2 Denmark fell to the Wehrmacht in 6 hours and a Danish diplomat Henrik Kaufmann gave Greenland control to the Allies , since Denmark at this time was Axis control he was immediately fired since he had no permission to do this. Is it time to fully open Keflavik, I was there when the USSR collapsed and we ended up with no mission.
  3. the Medicare fraud in MN which is a percentage of our GDP pisses me off
  4. Iran is not Afghanistan, when Khomeini came to power, he had overwhelming support of Iranian college educated young women who believed him. Sound familiar? Back in the 70s I had a discussion with my cousin who was a young female at the time who supported Khomeini who just dismissed me. Sound familiar again. Before this under the Shah it was progressive secular society. The Shah's secret police were heavy handed with the Islamists who wanted a theocracy and our own CIA didn't make many friends due to us wanting to keep our listening stations along the shared border with USSR. Maybe this time we can get it right.
  5. I guess he will be a guest of my neighboring town of Florence ATX.
  6. After an incident like this MX will get anal probing. Back in the 90's the F-15 had a known discrepancy in the tech order on how to rig the stabilators, these were rigged backwards, and pilot didn't notice it until he tried to takeoff from Spangdahlem, it was a fatal mistake. The following actions where the tech data was finally fixed and maintenance personnel whose name was in the 781 were court martialed, later one committed suicide and the MXG guys refused to sign any red X off in the forms because the witch hunt that was going on. The mission of that wing slammed to a stop because mx folks were in full career preservation mode and screw the sortie count. I bet JBERS will go through some painful soul searching, lives destroyed, careers scuttled, MX actions going into slow crawl mode. Mueller v. US Dept. of Air Force, 63 F. Supp. 2d 738 (E.D.

  7. AWACS had a similar problem in the early 80's, they were using body bags out of Thailand flown on a C-130s to Kadena then bags of black tar heroin were put on E-3's to Tinker. Had AIC's buying homes and cars for cash in OKC until the DEA figured out how 100% pure stuff was in Oklahoma. Lots of Op's and MX guys went down hard, so much they couldn't fly the schedule and flooded MX with new 3 levels straight out of tech school. That's how my career started.
  8. For all you guys with liberal friends asking you to remember your oath, and these boats. Tell them to Google 10 USC 124, 14 USC 522, 14 USC 526, the Maritime Drug Law Enforcement Act (MDLEA), and the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Seas (UNCLOS) and tell them to never miss an opportunity to STFU.
  9. My last day was to send my flag and retirement certificate to this address, not rent a crowd ceremony. Most of the Senior E's in my Sq I wouldn't piss on them if they were on fire. Started my terminal leave and couple days later my boss calls and asks me why I'm not at work. That Sq was so petty I never got my flag or certificate.
  10. I'm a retired old fart MSgt, got out at 21 mainly because I would never see another stripe, all my time was on the flightline, had a boss tell me all you did was deploy a bunch and do your job, never saw you at Sq parties or top 4 meetings. When I was stationed at Andrews, I was more an aircraft detailer than Crew Chief, I absolutely hated being there, hated the mission. Back in those days I could call my AFSC's manager at Randolph and ask for a PCS. He said you want Iceland, hell yes, I said just to get out of Washington DC. Guess what happened, I loved being in the USAF again. I think being in the Air Force is a lot like real estate, location, location, location. Before that I was ready to move on, get out and go home to Chicago and be a cop. I'm Sure glad I didn't do that. Now I'm semi-retired living the life in my mountain home in Colorado getting 4 checks monthly because I decided to stay in not go back to Chicago. 15 years is a bunch of years to walk away from, think really hard about it.
  11. Had no problem getting rid of tail gunners, Flight engineers, and Navigators, soon it will be all humans eliminated
  12. I wonder if few of these propellers were sent to foreign military sales. Air Force engineer indicted in connection with Marine plane crash that killed 16
  13. For all the history nerds here, I watched the Netflix movie Death by Lightning, the assassination of James Garfield. The first installment is how party politics was in the GOP convention. I recommend it.
  14. Sounds like an encounter I had back in the early 90s with a certain CSAF who thought he could taxi a C-135B between hangers like an F-15. His Crew Chief who was marshalling gave the stop sign but CSAF ignored him until the copilot applied the brakes. He came down the crew ladder screaming at everyone , how dare you tell me how to taxi.
  15. Chicago's last GOP mayor was in 1931, Big Jim Thomson, I enlisted in Chicago in 1980 in the southwest side Mount Greenwood where the majority of Cops and Firemen live my cousin being one of them. I went to two of High School reunions there and both times it gets worse from the economic downturn I see in the old neighborhood. The progressive politicians whose base is on the Chicago's north shore white affluent liberals keep electing even more out of touch Democrats who are running the place into the ground. I bet if Da Mayor old Richard J Daley was still alive, they would consider him a Republican. It still makes me tear up when our class president was murdered by 3 POS's from the west side because she couldn't open the safe at our local McDonalds in 79. The trigger man is still doing hard time for it, today he would have beat the rap due to the Cook County DA being hyper liberal.
