Scoolbubba will be glad to be able to explain, at length, the tactical and administrative implications of "REIN," and what that brings to the table and offers the operational commander... once he gets his JPME, his lobotomy, and gets assimilated into hingedom :eek: :D

Too late. The hostile takeover is nearly complete.

The only thing the plopters will dominate (besides officer assignments, career progression, and media coverage) is the number of red arrows on the board in Maintenance control.

OK, I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that you could probably count that as 13, unless they revived the other half... :)

Great pictures, btw, and good work.
