October 19, 201213 yr Beer and American tail...I think that's worth fighting for (and admiring). https://www.hark.com/clips/dbjqfbyycr-if-im-gonna-get-my-balls-blown-off-for-a-word-my-word-is-poon-tang
October 19, 201213 yr Who was the base commander at the Deid in '04 when the policy changed? Because I was deployed there at the time and that wasn't the reason we were told why the PT gear was implemented. https://www.af.mil/information/bios/bio.asp?bioID=7871 Cheers, Cap-10
October 19, 201213 yr https://www.af.mil/information/bios/bio.asp?bioID=7871 Cheers, Cap-10 It was actually this guy. https://www.af.mil/information/bios/bio.asp?bioID=7846
October 19, 201213 yr It was actually this guy. https://www.af.mil/information/bios/bio.asp?bioID=7846 The leadership swapped out during my squadrons time there...Egg was the CC when we showed up, and Beast was the CC when we left. Cheers, Cap-10

November 12, 201213 yr yep. I think it's here to stay too. Well then, here's to aircrew leadership and fully covered lower back tattoos.
November 12, 201213 yr I think the civvies thing may have been pushed from higher than wing level, since more than one base in the AOR made the exact same change on the exact same day. For someone doing a lot of preaching about leadership, this is piss poor leadership logic. You don't have to draw an imaginary line 10 feet back so that folks don't cross the actual line. And another 10 feet prior to that. We've all seen it in every aspect of the Air Force. Taking CBTs for every ORE leading up to an ORI so you can be "more green", the OG/CC setting a time for a briefing, SQ/CC pushes that back 15 minutes, FLT/CCs push THAT back 15 minutes, soon you're sitting in the base theater an hour before the briefing is supposed to start, one crew does something stupid in a plane and we're all watching a video of the CFACC telling us not to dick around...

Isn't that called "leadership"?
November 13, 201213 yr Isn't that called "leadership"? Apparently. Leadership these days is less about getting results, more about CYA.
November 13, 201213 yr Apparently. Leadership these days is less about getting results, more about CYA. Nope. My SOS responsive readings say otherwise. I shall believe...
November 13, 201213 yr Yep. If that was anyone other than Don Draper, that would be so incredibly gay. Instead, it borders on epic.
December 12, 201212 yr Anyone know the current tobacco situation??? Thanks Can't be found here, unless you want to pay $10/can or pack. I brought enough for the duration of my time here. That'd be my recommendation.
April 12, 201312 yr This just in, the threshold rule (men entering women's rooms and vice versa) has be rescinded. Eerily, this is not a big deal out here... almost like this place has "normalized."

I was living on the edge last night and walked: across 2 roads, from my humble abode half way across the CC, to the BRA and back... without... *gasp... a single reflective belt (not even 1 for my backpack) on. Not 1 fvck was given... and no one was hurt... and no one stopped me.

No one has said a word and I am definitely not alone. Culture change from the ground up!
