Commanders are dropping like flies this year

T38 Commander known for being a bro who can push it up. Ends up sleeping with a student who's lady parts have had more instructors inside than the average RSU. That somehow escalates to tag-teaming said student with one of the blue-suit sim instructors, where photos are taken just in case they'd forget the gay-adjacent threesome that put three separate careers in jeopardy. Then the sim IP mistakenly emails said photos to the base's most popular barber, who had more connections than Harvey Weinstein's Hollywood fixer. 

She deleted them, but when OSI "interviewed" the sim IP about a rumor that his genitals were flying CT formation with a certain commander in unauthorized airspace, he went off on a rant about that "dumb bitch" barber who is always spreading lies. OSI decided they might want to talk to the barber-they-previously-knew-absolutely-nothing-about, who told them she didn't really look at the pictures in the email and it doesn't matter because she deleted them a long time ago.

 

But OSI decided to cast a resurrection spell on her inbox with their magical subpoena crystals, and sure enough the investigators suddenly had everything they needed. 

 

If you know any of the characters in this tale, please keep it to yourself. They all went through enough, especially the spouse and children of the eventually-jailed Commander.

 

What happened to the student? Tanker pilot because she likes the hose.

Gen Allvin retiring on 1 Nov after two years in the seat as CSAF. I'm pretty out of the loop these days as a part-timer, but did anything actually happen during his tenure? The only "accomplishment" I can think of is bringing back uniform inspections...

UPT-Next, UNT-Next, AF One-Next = CSAF-Next?

 

But good question. What will be his legacy.

Begs the future question: what is next-Next?

Good riddance, hopefully he takes his CMSAF with him. Now the question is who follows him?

This could be concerning.

Not fired yet, but it’s probably coming.

I'm not sure which is dumber, getting upset that a bunch of people whose job is to murder foreigners having off-color jokes, or being dumb enough to put those off-colored jokes in a chat full of a bunch of commanders who would sell out their children to get the next promotion, much less a fellow commander telling a naughty joke...
