Great thread topic. If I ever get my kids off the payroll... 53, 0-4 retirement, VA service connected, that is all pretty much extra money. Lawyer now for over 5 years and plan on practicing all out until 60. Last of 3 daughters should be through college. Should have the modest mortgage paid...

23 yr Navy aviation career now lawyer. Go try to fly your ass off. Makes you a better lawyer and judges/clients love the stories. Fact. You're welcome.

Very cool

At least the NAS Jax pax got a smooth $2500...

Only if he promises to do it in drag.

Iran (and Russia to some extent) signed off or at least didn't oppose it. Maybe this expands conflict in the Middle East after a war weary US withdraws somewhat from the area only to get dragged back in? Perhaps it also draws resources from the western support of Ukraine and maybe even takes...

Schedule a consult with a trust and estates attorney in your father in laws' jurisdiction, usually free or a couple hundred dollars. Use the State or local Bar association to get a referral, that is free. We don't charge for consults and I wouldn't rely on a thirty-year-old piece of paper or...

one of the better off-topic thread wanderings in years...

Zeihan over-reduces complex topics so that material can be squeezed into digestible youtube segments and when Zeihan makes predictions and they don't come to fruition, he simply alters his premise..."well, we didn't account for..." Zeihan and Grossman should be viewed with the usual healthy...

I see them on my way to the marina and think they would make a nice reef. Or maybe they would even gross out the resident sea life.

Sky Pigs still stinking up the VP line in Jax...old P-3's never die, they just fade away...

Ultimately? Costa Rica... Or El Sal, the US dollar is the currency, roads are good, and of course, waves..

Mad Dog Sr. needs to confiscate and destroy those Birkenstocks IAW OPNAVINST 3710.allhippiesmustdie

Sweet soundtrack on that first clip. 80's metal ballad-ish with some gibberish lyrics. Bruce Dickinson would approve.

Looks like another ship on the starboard side assisting with firefighting. Seems like an authentic photo. The helo got the fuck outta dodge.

The impetus could be because Putin is emboldened by any outcome other than a public political defeat and either a total military defeat or a inability to conduct meaningful offensive operations. Perhaps because some in the West still think Putin will stop or be content with Donbas. I agree with...

Or it could be the very rational concern that war may actually escalate beyond Ukraine. Just an observation, but it seems at least some western euro leaders want to leave open a way out for Putin to save some face and possibly de-escalate the war, and eventually keep the war limited to the...

@Griz, if the flow of heavy equipment right at the outset would've been perceived as too escalatory, it seems now using the political leverage of genocide/indiscriminate/deliberate targeting of civilians could justify that escalating level of support. The visits by the UK PM and Austrian...

I'm a partner at a law firm and retired NFO. My partner has and still flies F-15's for the FLANG and doesn't miss a chance to go strap on a Eagle. Play your hand right and you may be able to do both. Good luck.

Going for that second helping of pork yakisoba at mid rats. truly extraordinary.

10 years, 7 months, 7 days. impressive.

AW. 30 years ago. Ouch.

Guess I'll touch the sun today... what percent get jets on Mars?

I know we're not supposed to speculate, but I bet the LCS crashed into the firescout. https://news.usni.org/2021/04/27/mq-8b-fire-scout-crashes-into-littoral-combat-ship-uss-charleston-on-deployment

If that's broken, don't fix it.

This happened while the Omega X-33 is being serviced out of Orlando... TAG Aquaracer Caliber 16. Decent weight change from the titanium X-33.

And mounted...excellent work SaberWW

hell yes. PM sent.

what percent get brazilian jets? too easy. ban away.

You sir, have excellent small boy helo det prospects. Let's see if we can get that routine up to 6 months, then you'll be in the big leagues.

Since you're both older, one of your challenges may be the 24/7 commitment level of the military. The military comes first. Duty, training, etc. Especially for the first couple of years. Hopefully you've got a leg up being a little more mature with life experience, support from family, and not...

https://news.usni.org/2020/08/31/e-2c-hawkeye-crashes-near-wallops-island-crew-recovered-safely reportedly all okay.

contrast the report with the NY Times article from April. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/12/us/politics/coronavirus-roosevelt-carrier-crozier.html

From the TR CI Report, Summary of Opinions 3. The TR SMO’s recommendation and the resulting release by the former TR CO of crewmembers in quarantine from the aft portion of the ship on March 29, 2020 likely resulted in infection to a larger portion of the crew. 4. The embarked CSG-9 Warfare...

some excerpts... 309. Junior Medical Department personnel drafted a letter and presented it to the TR SMO, who was the last to sign it.387310. In the letter, the signatories outlined their concerns over the situation on TR, detailed the possibility of 50 fatalities onboard the TR based on...

Your assumptions are valid.

Like a champ. Looked like a Van Halen concert.

Flare? Sure. Even you probably have one or two of these in the garage from the "old" days... I found some and a Mk 79 in one of the tool boxes...good times.

Great movie...Princess Leia was still hot in a girl next door kinda way...

looks like they recycled some Band of Brothers actors...green to blue or so it seems.

^^^^Not "mature" enough for the USCG. Those ladies need to be at least 50 years old for the coasties to be down.

total guess: sounds like an voluntold IA billet and he probably stayed in the JOC. Still cool as shit, though. He wasn't hanging out on rooftops lasing targets.

Yuge rubber dildos made of pork.

Especially bitter taste in the old AO DNA that runs so deep, eh?
