Really??: Ten Thousand Feet and Ten Thousand Miles (A UAV Article)

You guessed correctly. I was trying for "humorous irony" somewhere [up] there. Another epic fail...

No, I think most people that don't use the terms "firstie" and "the yard" in thier normal vocabulary got it. Humor achieved.

Nothing. The Chief that actually IS the craftmaster? That's a whole 'nuther story...

Or if you're the Supe and drive it right into the seawall and damage the wood there, you get a pass.

Terminal Lance sums it up, as always. And no, I don't want to know which of you think you earned the medal in the strip. Yeah, I'm talking about you, Baconator.

 

[jollygreen07]

I'm still confused. Who the Fuck is Baconator?

 

[wlawr005]

Wait, you're a second class... And I'm a three striper firstie on Brigade staff. STFU.

I almost wet my pants when I read: I hate to say it, but my human counterpart is a droneopotamus. He sits around in the Ground Control Station all day, eating Doritos, and posts a sticker on the door that says ‘Predator Pilot: Toughest Job in the Air Force


The Droneopotamus... sounds like someone MB would be hitting on....

I have a dependapotamus at home. Why would I need two?

Well, the medal is now officially under review by order of SecDef due to all the controversy.

I apologize for the very tardy response, but I just have to jump on this turkey shoot, I would have a long time ago but you know, I was actually deployed flying airplanes where you actually sit in the cockpit... I am speechless at the retardedom of this article. Love his self written caption at the bottom. "As a member of Air Force Special Operations Command, he has served both physically and through telewarfare in Iraq and Afghanistan and on emerging fronts." Yes, telewarfare.

I propose continuing or making a new thread for a Callsign Review Board for this guy. I'll start it out, "Deo" as in (Douchebag + Neo...the guy from the Matrix), or CRAP (Cyber Retard Always Pretending).

Now I know why things like "Code Reds" used to happen....

Looks like the new SECDEF took action against the new Cyber medal: Pentagon Scraps Medal

DING DONG, THE WITCH IS DEAD​

Once there was a wicked witch​

in the land of DOD​

She filled the folks in NAVAIRland​

with terror and with dread​

'Till one fine day (today)​

a hammer fell on her head​

and the SECDEF pronounced her dead​

And through the fleet, the joyous news went running...​

Ding Dong, The Witch Is Dead!​

A device might actually be the right solution. Hopefully, it's used on the (normally used as) non-combat awards. A NC with UAS distinguishing device is probably the right level of attaboy for a well executed remote mission. I hope it isn't a Bronze Star with "U"-type deal.

What is the NC you refer to? That normally refers to a Navy Cross???
