What, broken ones? Navy guys do FAC too. Especially when the Deltas don't get off the ground because they're falling apart. O-1 is an O-1... and regarding the general way of doing things... do you prefer "hey, bro, did you get __ done? thanks man" or "what the fuck. get that shit done...

Has anyone done an exchange tour with a foreign military? Can't seem to find much info on it. Anyone know who we can do exchanges with, specifically hornet guys?

rolls of pennies. plane captains love it.

You know it!

sold. getting the whites pressed right now. see ya there fellas.

So besides the air show on thursday, what else is there? Queue the gay jokes...

nice post man, +1. that looks like a ridiculous amount of man-hours and labor.

That second pair with the fingers cut out are the default being ordered at 101. Of course, it takes several years to ever get anything here, but nonetheless...

For what it's worth... Pensacola - Decent shape, great executive course, great scenery on the bay. Decent condition as far as fairways, rough and greens. Corpus - Most miserable excuse for a course ever. Someone hit it earlier; tons of dead grass, no discernible fairway/rough. Meridian - Lil'...

So there's that scene in a A Few Good Men where they argue about whether or not the Navy still hangs people from yardarms... I'm pretty sure that doesn't happen anymore, but I was reading the memoirs of a family friend who was a Sundowner back during Vietnam and he talks about being put in...

I just got my wings and my name below it. Nothing else. No rank, no USN, nothing. It looks just fine. Except I took it to the tailor I use and she dorked up the placement royally.

Looks like several clowns walked into the prop arc. Matches the clown planes in the background.

Don't you remember we used to use it to blast turkey vultures in the pattern at meridian?? Dude you flying at 125 or 122?

Winging: Jan 2010 Where: No IFS, API 6 weeks, Primary Corpus 8 Mos, Adv Meridian, 12 months Time from API to Winging: 24 months Faster/Avg/Slower:Dog with ass on fire fast... didn't do IFS, 6 weeks at API total, hit advanced in stride.

I went through apple's website and purchased one of the refurbished apple tvs. I think it was like 40 bucks cheaper. Works great. I debated getting a mac mini but just didn't want to spend the additional cash. LaCie makes a similar product as well...

dude how many flight suits have an american flag on them... same deal. we're like an overeager lab... we mark pretty much everything we can.

Thanks man. I actually was just planning on putting on a nametag and flag shoulder patch. Thanks for the responses.

Just got some patches from Tipsy Gipsy for my leather. Does anyone know the exact regulations on how to affix patches to the brown leather flight jacket? Uniform Regs Ch. 6 says you can either use hook and loop (velcro) or have it sewn on, but should I just sort of eyeball where to place the...

So I'm taking the military competency exam tomorrow so I can score that nifty commercial rating. I'm planning on going down to the local flying club and getting some hours under my belt so I can do some joyriding around SoCal with friends (Vegas, LA). Anyone care to share their thoughts on what...

For what it's worth, the meat selection at Miramar blew my socks off. And someone mentioned not being able to get the butcher to cut meats/get specific quantities/order specific stuff... that's just downright bull. You should probably say something to the manager about that. Every commissary...

Thanks fellas. I've been wondering this for years now.

Does anyone know how the multitudes of workers who serve as baggers at our exchanges can only be payed with tips? Doesn't that violate minimum wage somehow?

BTW they reduced MALT (the $ you get paid per mile) from $0.24 to $0.165... what a crock.

dude just go to either escort or passport's website and get the most expensive radar detector for a 30 day trial. money.

rumor is the stud was just screwing with the IP because he was a douchebag.

roger. ball.

I couldn't see the link, but I'm pretty sure a colleague posted this video to their facebook profile. And I watched it and sort of went "eww... politicizing the military."

Thread jack. I don't mean to insult the webmasters, but the search function doesn't function or search too well.

Not sure if this is a repost. Couldn't find anything. http://www.dispatch.com/live/content/local_news/stories/2010/04/23/navy-pilots-last-act-saving-3-crew-mates.html?sid=101

must be nice to live in a world where their isn't a massive underfunding of public education in general and the economy didn't nearly collapse because people financially overextended themselves...

i think we'd be better off teaching what a credit score is and how interest on a credit card works...

he only inquires that because i'm pretty sure the psuedo french embassy is there. check the thread in the intermediate/advanced jet section, "meridian housing comprehensive."

Watch out because they've been sooo strenuous... "Alright guys, go ahead and do you push-ups. On your own. Count yourselves. I'll be paying no attention whatsoever. Oh and then the 1.5 mile run will be actually be 1.1. Have fun."

No need to nerd out yet...You won't be starting until after July at the earliest. Learn how to surf and dust off the golf clubs. And Navy guys can't select Japan anymore, as of about two weeks ago. Supers only over there.

And to follow up, other people have basically said it... each source has a quality spread. Good and bad. The actual unit at each university had no impact on my choice whatsoever. You show up and do your best, they'll try and get you what you want. I picked the university that I liked / fit me...

Every week or so? Yea, that's about 51 times a year too many. But this spray paint method... go on... are we talking semi-gloss or flat?

Check this website. It will let you filter airline cards, no fee cards, low-interest, rewards, etc. http://www.creditcards.com/

That's pretty close man. The higher limit you have and lower amount you charge, the better it will be for your credit score. Carrying a balance is bad for your score. Plus you have to pay finance charges, which is bad for your wallet. Being delinquent or not paying on time is bad for your...

"Hot water and the scrubby side of a sponge? " Worked wonderfully. Thanks dude.

Ahh, see, you're falling into a mistake akin to Plato's butthole.

I haven't had the same experience. I was lured into Capital One's "No Hassle" card because they offer 2 points for each dollar spent; basically double what most people offer. And you can apparently apply those points to any airline, no blackout date. However, their customer service is a call...

Is there anyway to revive a set of white shoes? Mine are getting a bit yellow and no amount of white shoe polish will cover some of the dirt and grime that has built up over the years. Should I just nuke 'em and buy another set? There doesn't appear to be a shoe cobbler in Meridian either...

Thanks man. So a pilot, with an 8 yr commitment after wings, would have to sign on for another 4 years on top of the 8 yr commitment?

The GI Bill website states you can transfer benefits to dependants if you, the member: Has at least 6 years of service in the Armed Forces on the date of election and agrees to serve 4 additional years in the Armed Forces from the date of election. Since most of us have an 8 year...

Sorry man, but bad gouge. The housing office keeps a pretty detailed list and can help you narrow down all the choices out there and put you in contact. And there are a few agents that can really help out. But yea, most of them are worthless.

I'm trying to find somewhere near to see it. It's surprising that such a high-calibre movie with a well-written plot wouldn't make it's way to Meridian, the mecca of southern culture...

They should throw said kids out because of their parents. FAIL.

I'll be interested what happens when these retired Os are thumbing through airwarriors while you're putting together shitty ppts and discern your identity. What are you stashed waiting for?

Futhermore, if you want to complain about budget problems, you should be looking towards congress. Obama can't do crap without the purse strings they control. In addition, I don't think the issue has been lack of funds, it has been mismanagement of the funds we currently have. It's...

Ug, go to a real civilian college, don't go to a military academy. Just don't.
