My ass is a motherfuckin' champion

Hey all, been awhile since I've had internet here in Quantico. Looks like I've got just over 12,000 posts to catch up on:eek:!

Staying motivated, only three more weeks of training until grad week :icon_smil! It's going good so far. I'll have to say it's pretty moto seeing all the birds flying in and out of HMX-1 everyday. Heck, even the phrog's look pretty cool (;))
I still want fixed wing but at least I know I'd love helo's now to. Gotta go catch up on some rest but I hope to get back in the mix on here in a few weeks when I get done. I'm hoping for ptad for a couple of months and then maybe Echo co for TBS so I should have some time to catch up. That's about it.

Oh, and going through the combat course and the Quigley when it's 38 degrees outside is almost a religous experience :D

Favorite SgtInst. quote so far, "The only thing worse than a nasty candidate...snakes!" (kind of had to be there) :icon_smil
 
Snakes in 38 degree weather? Guess you really had to be there!

Keep strokin'
 
Ah, those were the days. Congrats on making through that cold WX. I was a summer company guy and I can't imagine that stuff in the cold. I also can't imagine TBS in the summer ... good luck and have fun :rolleyes: Your life will never be the same bro!
 
Well I made it through with about slightly less than half of my original platoon. Started with 53, graduated 24. Feels good to have Brown field in the rear view mirror! :D

Now I play the waiting game, deferred my commission because they wanted me to go straight into tbs which I couldn't do but started the paperwork today to get it done. Hopefully I'll get into the june tbs class which would put me in pcola next january.

I see I've got about 6400 missed posts, anyone want to give me the cliff's notes version of the past ten weeks? ;):D
 
cliff notes:
what do I need for the astb
what % get jets
skeeterman returns
will a plane take off from a treadmill
can skim find housing in Norfolk
will A4s beat brett in posts
SOG seems to have disappeared....

Seems like a pretty high attrition rate. Any particular reason so many didn't make it? High amount of DORs?

Congrats on making it through by the way.
 
I wasn't there but 10 week OCC classes have pretty high attrition + cold = people quit/break.

You wouldn't happen to know a Korean guy, prior HM, who graduated with you? His sister works with me and went to the graduation, she was pretty happy to get him out of the house!

You forgot the Helo guys and the Jet guys hugging each other in the general aviation forum.
