    Pre-Workouts and Supplements

    I put this here to provide some accurate gouge. https://www.airwarriors.com/community/index.php?threads/new-nutritional-supplements-guide.40690/ It is my semi-humble opinion that protein obtained from natural sources is cheaper than that in powered form. An average guy working out can use...

    Anthropomorphic issue for fitting in a naval strike fighter jet

    Back in the day....I think there were 20 or so measurements to be performed at some point during the physical. IF someone anthro'd out of a platform, they could receive a personal fit in specific aircraft. That would often determine their career path. The things we would check for were...

    Government Shutdown - Take action for or against saluting

    At what point do you get to decide when, and to whom, you will render a salute? An O5 shoe? A more attractive hinge? Perhaps in the NAS Lemoore NEX parking lot? While I may not care for hinges, bluberries, shoes, old women, fatties or parking lots, I think it would have been far better and...

    Childhood depression waiver?

    Yes, I do see that the NAMI guide says that bipolar is non-waiverable, but the nurse practitioner diagnosed this at age 10 because he was hopped up on anti-depressants.
