March 8, 201213 yr It appeared in the inbox today - but links to a .org address...but it's not like they ask you about the Raptor OBOGS. It uses an individual PIN, so forwarding isn't going to work.
March 8, 201213 yr Wait, I thought we already decided on our motto that no one uses? Aim high...Fly, Fight, Win? What does it say about an organization that takes 2+ years to come up with a motto?
March 8, 201213 yr It's been more than 2yrs for sure. We have all kinds of ideas! Aim High Fly Flight Win Above All Aim High...Fly, Fight, Win Do Something Amazing No One Comes Close I think some of those are actually recruiting slogans, rather than mottos... I vote for "Shoe Clerks and a few Flyers Unite in Queepville!" We'll blow the Marine recruiting out of the water. Who wants to slay fiery dragons with a sword at any other place than the comfort of their computer chair on World of Warcraft? Not AF recruits, that's for sure. Know your audience!
March 8, 201213 yr How about "There's no such thing as job security, even with us! Even if you have your master's and PME done..."

Lets just join all of these together somehow to make one moto: "Aim High to Flight, Fight and Win because Above All, No One Comes Close to Do Something Amazing." I think this moto can be easily remembered by all.... Edited March 8, 201213 yr by Tank
March 8, 201213 yr This reminds me of a funny story that I heard when I was an exchange student at the Korean AF ACSC. After the we came out with our new logo/symbol, the ROKAF decided it was time to update theirs as well. So they hired a civlian PR firm in Seoul to design one and the ROKAF also asked them to come up with a new English motto, telling the PR firm that they liked the old USAF motto "Aim High", so make the new one similar to that. So, for $500K, the PR firm came up with "Always High". Fortunately for the ROKs, the project officer asked the USAF exchange professor we had at their Staff College what he thought of it and he was able to explain the colloquial meaning of "Always High" before they had their 4 star sign off on it.
March 9, 201213 yr How about: "Don't crash an airplane, because we will call it "pilot error" either way.... oh, and your remains will be deposited into a landfill." Seems timely, seeing's how we change the motto semi-annually anyway.
March 9, 201213 yr Seems timely, seeing's how we change the motto semi-annually anyway. Gotta log your beans, you know...
March 9, 201213 yr Or like the Navy used TG, we could use a movie to our advantage "Be an Iron Eagle" Oh wait, nevermind.
March 9, 201213 yr "Insane attention to meaningless detail" "Christmas parties, hellzya" "Warriors. Everywhere." "DFACs, not Chow Halls." "TUCK YOUR PT SHIRT IN!" Edited March 9, 201213 yr by Rainman A-10
March 9, 201213 yr Full spectrum.... For current Ops: "It Sucks to be Us" Translated for the the 'text' generation (i.e. recruiiting): SUX 2 B Uz"
March 9, 201213 yr I realize the MC has Semper Fi, and the AF unofficial Motto is Per Diem Maximus but let's upgrade that to Fly, Fight and Win in LATIN. Edited June 15, 201213 yr by alwyn2d
