-1 for reading comprehension. :D SDSU is San Diego State University. The girls are hot, and they continually battle for top party school honors.

Rumor mill being what it was at OCS... I think only 1 person was attrited while I was there. If I remember correctly, the guy started in PCola, failed RLP. Came up to Newport, failed several times there. Eventually enough was enough and they showed him the door. Never knew the guy but saw him...

http://globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=8858 Google search. Obviously a slanted website, but should give some info..

+1 - Hard program to be attrited from. Further, your biography is blank, and your numbering system (1, 2, 2, 3, 3,) is for the lack of better words... terrible.

Some amazing pictures on here. I'm not only very impressed with the pictures themselves, but also with the cameras you guys are using. What type/model cameras are these?

Threadjack back to topic: It's there for a community brief, and probably other things as well. /Threadjack

If you are prior service (I am not) bring your records (or maybe they said make sure it's in your current records?) so that you don't get everything again. Otherwise, you will be getting everything all split over two days. I think it was like 5/6 shots one day, and 4/5 the other. It sucks, but...

I believe the locations for IFS include: PNS, Mobile, Bay Minnette, Destin, Eglin, & Milton

From the links posted... NASNI will be used to host rotating Dets doing training work in the region. No permanent squadron will be placed there.

I'd second that, considering you can: -get an F-18 up to about 118,000ft -stick an F-18 on the runway at 299kts -pull 12-14 G turns I think he was joking though about the 'greatness' of the 'feat' he had achieved.

That was my guess as well. BTW Semper you forgot "weaping for the future of Naval Aviation"

Stop.... digging. Seriously.

It is 100 miles, and yes within reason you can do as you please (go to a bar/see family/whatever)

An electric razor is great. You can shave with a razor at night, then touch up with an electric in the morning. Lots of people use them. You won't be able to bring it in with you right away, but on a POV run later on you can grab it.

Since we are on the topic of AAFES... coupon : adcotm 10% off; once per account.

Congrats 03

The OCR is updated for Newport. In-PFA is Sat-Med Mid-PFA is Sat High Out-PFA is Good Low With that said, I can pretty much guarentee you won't make it through Indoc week if you can only do a Sat-Medium. You will get a failure to maintain and end up in 'H'. For those of you showing up...

MasterBates (or anyone), Any idea where I can find the official Navy document for what we discussed (Old Permanent Duty Station Move). That was what I was looking for, but now I apparently need to find the instruction that contains the needed info.

1) I remember reading on here (but could not find in a quick search) that there was a way to take either 16 or 18 days of un-charged leave after OCS, if you were BDCP. Something to the effect of getting to go home to get your belongings before reporting to your next station (PCOLA). 2) Does...

Some friends of mine are trying to organize an event on campus with proceeds going to the military. They asked me for recommendations of charities that help the military. I don't know of any, but I hope you guys do.

You mean you don't have an assortment of passwords with two capital letters, two lower case letters, two special characters, and two numbers, readily available?? You wouldn't want someone to get access to the human trafficking module. :)

I just noticed, there are no hard points. So... the 18G is unarmed??? I thought it would carry at least a few A/A pieces..

If you are worried about it, I would look into having the grade switched to pass/no pass (go see your academic adviser/counselor). Or, if you can't, do the best you can and don't worry about it. If you are that worried about it, drop the class, or take it p/np and move on and do well/better in...

This is the first time I have ever heard of people using Google Earth to search satellite pictures in this manner. More information about it on Amazon's website, and Fossett's. Very interesting. I was flying gliders out of Minden-Tahoe just a couple days before he took off out of Hilton...

CaptainRon, That's good news. Good luck with the Doc. xmid, Yea... kinda makes you wonder if they will move some up there or what the plan is?

Anyways, back on topic. The point is I am sure there are plenty of people who get into this program under every possible race/ethnicitiy/gender/etc. Why do certain people get picked while others don't? No idea. I have seen some very qualified people not get selected while others with much less...

To have a negative leave balance. I believe you can go up to 10 in the hole (-10). But it would generally be a bad idea since if something else came up (family emergency) or if you needed to take leave after you wouldn't have any more to use. Another + for the Best Damn Commissioning Program is...

I had 'Caucasian' marked for Race. I was selected last year. I really think you would have received more, and better help with a much different tone in your posts. Just a youngin' .02.

Wow... I can't believe that guy came back. Sad. The other day I was sitting bored as can be in class, and decided to google the guys name. He must have presented himself as a retired AF pilot on some like 10 boards. Several of which he was given respect for his service to the country. I hope...

What Brett said, and the issue is not that they are going to make the hop (refueling???) to the States... The issue is that the planes naturally wear and need parts replaced as part of their use. We stopped selling them parts (with the exception of some leaks) quite a long time ago. It becomes...

Not at all. I figured it would be apparent given that my profile says Newport. It is my area code. I just could not fathom why he would be here as there is not a lot of aviation going on over here. If anything, the witch hunt was on me just now for a very innocent comment. Which he answered.

I think it would be great to have a sticker (and really like the designs shown)... but could we make two versions, one of which does not have any wings on it?

(949) - When were you in Irvine/Newport?

Remember the same thing happening last year with Hawaii? If I recall correctly... that was overturned eventually. Liberals make me laugh because they see life as if it were a fairy tale. If it was up to them we would have no military, and especially no guns for citizens. Unfortunately, that...

It was bad. I remember realizing that when all the way out in Irvine it was literally raining ash. Everyones screens, and cars, were filthy with ash. Literally looked like someone was emptying a sky sized BBQ from 1000ft overhead.

The form (DD317?) is available somewhere online. A search of this forum will turn up the form number (or your recruiter can get it for you). On the form the company can write "Due to company policy we cannot comment on the employment of this person other than to say he/she worked for our company...

My buddy is at (or rather JUST left) AF TPS. He's been there for the last 2.5 years or so. If anyone has any questions you want me to relay, I'll see what I can do. I had the chance to go visit TPS about 5 or 6 times, including a graduation and a couple flights in their gliders. Great group of...

I was reading about security investigations and learned that some guy lost his SCI clearance based on a lifestyle polygraph that among other things included that he admitted downloading music. That seems pretty crazy to me, I assume that much like a wide proportion of the U.S. that file-sharing...

I use them for their savings. It is 4.5% which is a good deal (but not the best). It has been problem free, fee free, and easy to use. I store 'extra' money there that I don't want to tie up in a CD, and don't want to risk in an investment. I would still recommend obviously a normal...

Does UC have any cross-town agreements with another local university? If so, you might be able to do NROTC that way. If you start AFROTC and decide it isn't for you, feel free to stick it out as long as you want, but don't sign the contract or accept any scholarships (which means you will have...

I am waiting for an earlier set of orders to be cut. I have a feeling that I might be in this class as my recruiter put my updated availability down as 27 SEP. I'll keep you guys posted as we are all essentially from the same area. Either way congrats to both of you, good luck.

While the fact that the chick in the picture probably has thunder thighs may be true, the AF is still lucky to have some pretty hot girls. A couple girls I know that would be considered attractive regardless of military service are in AFROTC. Interestingly enough the AF has the most relaxed...

Quite possible. I know two guys who finished Jr's. One dropped out of the program when he got back, the other told me he hasn't trained a day since coming back (which will make Sr's interesting).

Get a 328/335i Convertible. Great car, and if you do european delivery you get 7% off. Plus, you can likely get a big price cut off of MSRP since ED cars don't come out of dealer stock (it's a national pool that all the dealers can pick from, so any money made is 'free' money they would have...

Stay very, very far away from the car. All modern BMW's are loaded with technology that throws fits all the time. I couldn't imagine how many problems you would have with it being a flooded car. I honestly wouldn't even own a non-flooded BMW out of warranty. FWIW I love BMWs and not knocking...

I think Bear is awesome. I look at half of his stuff and think... wow I would never do that. And I think I am pretty big on taking risks. Let's see he climbed to the top of an avocado tree like 75ft off the ground with no harness/rope, and pulled out his knife and ate the avocado at the top of...

Every single time I read that CNRC instruction with "T-Rex" arms in it, it kills me. I don't know if that is actually in the manual or if that was Brett's doing. Either way, the fact that they made that a medical 'issue' is helarious.

Anyone in the S.D. area want to grab a beer on me in exchange for some sea stories? Or just want to show a BDCP'er around your squadron? I am heading to 3rd Fleet HQ around noon, but will be free before/after. Send me a PM. Mods if this isn't ok, feel free to delete (either way, I guess by...

Before people jump on him for being dishonest. I can pretty much guarentee his reason for asking was because in various forms they ask "do you have a police record". Which is somewhat of an open ended question, I am sure they mean do you have any convictions present/past... but I am sure he is...

^ Yes.
