    Texas ABC raids are happening, again

    Coming from a family in food and beverage...a box of steaks and a case of Dom go a long way... On topic, LE agencies generally don't up and decide to enforce certain laws moreso than others without guidance from on high. Why crackdown on bar patrons vice illegal sales? Sounds like the good...

    Considering restaurants make most of their money from alcohol sales, I'm sure Brett's "adjustment" will be made soon.

    Dealing with relationship issues at TBS

    This is duped in the Spouses Corner, if one of the wives/gfs could make sure the original poster can access that forum, it would be great. Otherwise we're done here.

    Too much fun in to cockpit for USAF T-Birds

    That's crazy. NO ONE is immune from simple mistakes like that.

    OCS moving to Rhode Island?

    Define "need". I'm sure they could figure out a way to do it without them for at least one class. Barring that, what's the bare minimum they'd need to get the first class through and on their feet. look man, I'm sure someone, somewhere, of a way higher paygrade has this all worked out. My...

    OCS moving to Rhode Island?

    I'm sure they'll stop training to ship entire classes from Pcola to RI midstream. Talk to your recruiter now if you need to request a special meal on the flight up there. I honestly don't know, but think about the logistical nightmare of moving that many people midstream in that...

    K-bay Boq I have stayed in wayyy too many Qs and Kbay's is the worst (beating Diego Garcia's old JO Ghetto with the dead rat lottery). At the top of the hill, yet no wind, oven-hot and humid, with no air conditioner. Ants EVERYWHERE, EVERYTIME I've had to stay there. Roaches abound, and...

    Special Duty

    It's 2am, long story story short, I'm in the infamous VP YG 98, with a scary screen rate for DH, where you fly very very little and stab stab stab. I had the option to split and go civ div, or get a free Masters and keep my health care. Like I said, short version.

    Special Duty

    I am. I just got accepted to become an FAO. Flash is right though, FAO and Attache are different entities. The Attaches (Navy) that I've known were both post command fellas, O-6. The assistant Attache is a fomer Sea King pilot who didn't want to transition to 60s. DLPT scores for...

    Recommendations for Survival Knives?

    That issued knife opens ravioli cans just fine. If you still care that much when you hit the Fleet and get your own vest, just get something small that folds. Don't go wasting money on some gucci nonsense.

    Language School

    If the Navy deems you have a legitimate (ie required for your job) need to go to the Defense Language Institute, they will send you. You will have to take the Defense Language Aptitude Battery (DLAB) which will determine what course you will take (basic, intermediate, advanced), or if you can...

    Take a hint, stop guessing and speculating about things you don't know about and don't need to be airing in public.

    BDCP = Best Program Ever

    To clarify, Brett's actual post was: I'm not going to get into semantics, but I would not read this as: No one should count on this happening on any kind of regular basis.

    Personal Awards (split from "Officer Sword")

    Supposedly the entire awards process is under major scrutiny, specifically for over generosity with the NAM. I found this out when researching why one of my host nation's exchange guys never got his Comm (which was the standard EOT award for those guys).

    Holy Crap. I'm flying from South America to Philly for Xmas, which is running about 1300 bucks everywhere I look. For sh!ts and grins, I called AA to see if they offer any mil discount. 900 bucks. And I get my miles. (Borat voice) WOWWEEEWOWWOW give it a shot...

    Low flying frogs...

    Guess we better stop using desert runways and unprepared fields then... I'm not going to argue with you about this. FOD intake doesn't even make my list of concerns regarding that video. I'd wager they're at least 30-50 feet high on that pass. I haven't had any rocks hit the windshield...
