February 24, 201213 yr Can't say enough about these dudes. The sendoff we had tonight was excellent and the support from everyone has been awesome! Rest easy brothers...we're taking care of you. Cooter
February 24, 201213 yr "2" to what Cooter said, good send off last night. For anyone who knew the guys or is involved in base activities on Hurlburt, the base memorial will be Tuesday the 28th at 1000 in the Freedom Hanger on the East side of base. The U28 Heroes website is legit and we've had a lot of generous donations so far, thanks to anyone who has donated already. I'm sure the families will appreciate whatever help is available.
February 24, 201213 yr Fair winds and following sea's Shipmates. And for those of you out there continuing on with the mission, thank you. ATIS Edited February 24, 201213 yr by ATIS
March 2, 201213 yr There will be a piano burn Friday Mach 2nd That's going to be one fast piano burning at Mach 2! Post pictures, please! Excellent way to pick-up an old RAF tradition.
May 25, 201213 yr Recent article by Gen Schwartz about this crew. https://thehill.com/blogs/congress-blog/homeland-security/228991-give-gratitude-to-next-greatest-generation
June 14, 201213 yr The report is out. 2... go read it... and don't speculate what FCIFs the U-28 guys need.
June 14, 201213 yr This thread was mean to honor the sacrifice and loss of four great Airmen, please keep that in mind and go to the other thread if yo want to have a pissing contest about wings falling off. Them Them...
June 14, 201213 yr This thread was mean to honor the sacrifice and loss of four great Airmen, please keep that in mind and go to the other thread if yo want to have a pissing contest about wings falling off. Them Them... Yes, and stop asking unless the AIB is out.
June 14, 201213 yr I guess it's not much of a "Shadow War" when the mainstream press has a hold of it. On a somewhat related note from the Washington Post. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/us-expands-secret-intelligence-operations-in-africa/2012/06/13/gJQAHyvAbV_story.html

On a somewhat related note from the Washington Post. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/us-expands-secret-intelligence-operations-in-africa/2012/06/13/gJQAHyvAbV_story.html It is seriously difficult to take our notion of "OPSEC" seriously when you see articles like that.
June 14, 201213 yr Yes, and stop asking unless the AIB is out. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but usually there is a releasable portion of an SIB, right?
June 14, 201213 yr Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but usually there is a releasable portion of an SIB, right? Part I of an SIB will not give you anything useful.
June 14, 201213 yr Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but usually there is a releasable portion of an SIB, right? You're probably thinking of the AIB, which comes out later (sometimes much later) and has different content than the SIB. "The purpose of an accident investigation is: a. To provide a publicly-releasable report of the facts and the circumstances surrounding the accident, to include a statement of opinion on the cause or causes of the accident; and, b. To gather and preserve evidence for claims, litigation, disciplinary, and adverse administrative actions, and for other purposes. In contrast, the primary purpose of a safety investigation is to find the cause of an accident in order to take preventative actions." https://usaf.aib.law.af.mil/AIB_Info.html

I'm thinking SIB...and it's probably part I. That portion is released to the AIB, isn't it? And since that's in their report, it is, of course, released...but not until the AIB's done, right? I helped on about a dozen of these as a gopher, but never was completely clear on the rules of releasability

June 15, 201213 yr https://www.e-publish...s/afi91-204.pdf Thanks. I'll browse through all 142 pages to see if it clearly answers my question.
