capt4fans Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 GUYS, GUYS, guess what? I just came up with a great idea! Lets have an airshow at the Deid (base personnel only) so we can introduce all the aircraft to the shoeclerks who have no idea about our mission (just kidding guys, insert sarcasm now). I am willing to bet 100% the Wing king would do it. This is a great idea because it could possibly mean keeping some guys from having a day off after working 3-4 weeks straight. It would even rock more if it meant one of our spare lines couldn't hack the mish because it was busy pulling static duty. I hope the Wing King doesn't read this because I'm seriously afraid he would make it happen . I bet your ass I'd be the one out there on the static bird too. Any volunteers? Here's to you Wing King Do I sound bitter, pissed, angry, ready to feel like an adult again? YES g2s, Hate to spoil your Friday, but this was done during my last rotation in that hell hole. P.S. Bendy.....you need to drink more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YES When I was there last year they had a "MWS Week" where they'd go and show an aircraft/brief by the aircrew to anyone who was interested.

capt4fans Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 When I was there last year they had a "MWS Week" where they'd go and show an aircraft/brief by the aircrew to anyone who was interested. And the OG was having the crews brief about their MWS as well. The best part about the whole thing was the current OG, whose last name might rhyme with Knot, actually sent an email to the AC who was there for the brief telling them just how wonderful a job they did. Bottom line, the OG wasn't at the brief and there wasn't anyone else at the brief either. Talk about clueless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bottom line, the OG wasn't at the brief and there wasn't anyone else at the brief either. Talk about clueless. Speaking of MWS briefs... Said OG took a bunch of high ranking guests out to one of our jets not too long ago. Said OG starts talking about how great the jet is (though said OG has never flown it). Then said OG attempts to speak about weapons intelligently (though said OG has never dropped any). Then said OG tells the guests how this Ops Group is so great because of all the weapons we deliver in combat, etc... Then one of the guests asked said OG, "So what kind of weapon is this?" as he pointed to a GBU-31. Apparently, said OG had no clue and just stared at the guy like he had a d!ck growing out of his forehead! A few seconds later said OG replied, "It's a GBU-38, I think?" The crew chief was there listening to all of it and, like any crew chief worth his money, corrected her on the spot. Good on you chief! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tac airlifter Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 I was the standing IP on her fini flight at LRF. 3 hours into the flight while doing a touch and go she called "Reject, we've lost our left hand DC bus!" For those of you qualified on the H3, you'll know that the LH DC light has been illuminated for years because we don't have the hardware that it powers (except you guard dudes). Anyway, its a well known fact and written up in the forms of every tail. So we rejected at 95 knots just prior to rotate because she at that moment noticed the light that had been on the whole time every time she's ever flown, and she had no idea what it was. She was one of the most incompetent pilots I have ever flown with, and certainly the most incompetent for her qual/grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afnav Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 For those of you coming out here, you'll love Right Start. "Sir, you have to move all the way down the aisle. We can't have any blank spaces." I guess they need everyone crammed together for weight and balance for the theater. "If you don't have your LES, and you come to finance with a problem, we will not help you." Okay, I'll bring my LES when I come to finance with a problem with you. I'll bring a knife, too. "If you wish to initiate anything with anyone here, you must have verbal consent. Written is better." Instant flashback to Chappelle's "Love Contract" sketch. "We need you to wear your PT gear for force protection, so we can tell you from the bad guys. The foreigners (Brits, Aussies, French) are on their own." Yeah, like terrorists have never dressed in the uniforms of the people they are attacking in this part of the world. Someone tell Sadat they do that sometimes. Oh, my bad. "You can rest assured, ladies and gentlemen, ..." Nails on a chalkboard. Lay off the Red Bull, Mikey. I read a post about the redeploying Right Start brief. It is true. It's called Right Finish, and you will not be allowed to outprocess the base without it. One week down, 51 to go.

Guest Form 8 Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Other bases in the AOR have Right Finish also. It's where I get to watch a movie about the current AEF's there and how they went off base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stract Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Now there's another good one for my bag of sarcasms! I'm off to Bagram in two weeks! at least Bagram calls it Combat Orientation and Combat Finish. And you don't have to wear a reflective belt in PT gear. Unless the new Wing King there has made some drastic changes, Bagram is the least Big Blue-feeling place of the deployed locations I've been to, considering there's a Wing there. The CCC is a great dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afnav Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Wow. Is this a new thing there? Apparently so. The guys in the office next door took an office call the other day to the pool trying to catch those chicks doing some last-minute baking before this thing started. Have no illusions that this is the norm out here. Pretty much every night of the week, especially Friday and Saturday, 75% of the crowd is on their computers chatting or WOW'ing under the BRA, with senior NCOs in twos and threes patrolling the perimeter. These hulking 'ubermenche' are an extremely small minority. It's a far cry from the day when I deployed regularly where the mission on the weekends was to get in the pants of the opposite sex. God, I feel old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't have enough time to get to the gym as much as they did while you're over there, clearly your mission focus if off! Kill Me.

I thought our Butch OG was the gayest thing I ever saw at the Deid....or maybe it was the woman in comfortable shoes who was the host nation escort for aircrew.
