I've had issues dealing with USAA banking while on deployment (had an account with them and NFCU). Eventually it came to a head and now I deal exclusively with NFCU for banking (overseas locations, much more understanding regarding deployments and being based overseas) and USAA for...

Eh, as of my last trip (2003) Thais don't fly Trackers anymore. P-3s and Fokker 27s fulfill their MPRA role. I do remember seeing some aging, tore up S-2s on the field...kind of sad to see.

I did PSU NROTC back in the dark ages (mid 90s). It was fine. Got a commission... Focus more on prospective school's programs regarding what you want to study (your major) and if it's an environment you'll enjoy (extracurriculars, distance to family, dude to chick ratio, partying if...

or "appalled"... that Spirit of '76 C-1 is awesome.

On the other side of this whole "buy a sword" discussion...odds are as a Navy JO you won't need one for quite awhile. If you decide to wait until you actually need one, there are plenty of people to borrow from for weddings (local NROTC units are usually cool about loaning them out). You MAY...

take it to pms funboys. locked for now...

Point being?

Or NROTC. (come on guys, we can't list EVERYTHING. If you want to represent your alma mater, you can post something like 'USMMA, NROTC, X Scholarship)

I missed it since this damn country refuses to show real football on the weekends. 8 soccer games...sure, why not? Damn ESPN South America. PSU '98

yeah...beat norte dame! couldn't pass it up

Problem being, everyone knows those, so if yer smart you'll coordinate something TRULY discreet to avoid getting clowned...or eavesdropped on. One of the moments that still gets my eyes rolling was a battle between the MX Chiefs and the JOs regarding "callsign" (I'll put it in quotes now) use...

I fvcking knew this thread was gonna degenerate into that

New guys remember, the more you let everyone know you dislike whatever you've been dubbed, the more people will use use it, write it on your stuff, put it on the flight sched, and introduce you as it.

are they hiring??? Brett - Easily one of the best patches ever.

Your husband would be completely within his rights to scehdule a meeting for both of you with the aviation advisor. I'd make sure to do this at least once. This isn't a "wive's club" thing, this is his career and your future together as a family.

if you can't make fun of yourself....

Are you SURE you don't want the oil?

STA-21 is done through an NROTC unit, right? If so, the unit should have either a Pilot or NFO on staff. Make an appointment to talk with him or her regarding this type of stuff. This forum is great, and you can get all kinds of info here, but a face to face with someone in the know will...

At least the MUC is just a ribbon...but yeah, very similar

Speaking of South American bling bling, guys down here have a medal they wear as commissioned officers...for making Dean's List at the academy... i threw up a little in my mouth...

Those kids wear all kinds of retarded stuff. Pay them no mind.

I've seen this a few times. It's corny, but the "nad puppet" is pretty damn funny. Plus any afficionado of "the Bond" can relate. Those guys did get into a world of sh!t over the video, from what I've overheard at various watercoolers. "Torn Sack" - hah.

I'll settle for a laser designator in the AIMS pod for upgraded Mavericks. But maybe that's just me. Propstop have you deployed to the Gulf yet? If not, be patient. You'll have your time. (edit: before anyone jumps my sh!t I'm not talking about shooting stuff)

time hack

Where exactly have we faced, encountered, discovered said "armada" in the current world? A few years ago, I got to fly in a large scale exercise involving all Maritime platforms. Without going into details/OPSEC territory, the helos took care of business when it came to small boat threats...

This is EASILY one of the funniest posts in a while.

Funny, that's EXACTLY what I was alluding to.

Never seen a same service platform brawl. I HAVE "seen" some interservice ones. No, it isn't common.

http://img.military.com/Shock/videos.do;jsessionid=B09D1037DB86C1CFD582E61E4A126254?displayContent=79798 from military.com, thought you guys would like it. lemme know if the link works

"MY unit is..." Just find school that has a good rep for your major. Next priority should be whether or not you will enjoy the location (chicks, weather, hippy/tree hugger ratio).

Based on what? Some grandiose conspiracy that all the guys in one particular company have been pegged for a particular platform? Puh-leeze. Maybe due to to timing, more slots will open up and a few more guys will select V-22s. (I'll back Fly's ATHF jones. That show is addictive.)

I don't care what GUYS are at the party.

"Santini" is also a good primer on how to raise children. "You're my favorite daughter" - AWESOME

oh I was just poking fun. hell, down here we don't even get parachutes, which simplifies the whole "ditch or order bailout" dillema. and for what it's worth I think the ruler belongs in 90% of these threads.

here guys, let me speed up this discussion to its inevitable end...

I'm sure the Webmaster will make it a controlled feature.

Or you could let the Fleet Marines on the board field a question better suited to their experience level.

that's ok, "FezzCB" says "that's hot" enough to raise the queer-ometer for all of us.

Airships and Seaplanes...everything old is new again...

I back wing icons, nothing else. If you want the world to know about your platforms and hours, put them in your signature. I've also perused flightinfo.com and its gay. May as well take another "measurement" and post that as well.

"PC Load letter? WTF does THAT mean?" Come on man, ISP? Proxy? Caching? You KNOW I'm a dumbass. (looks like things are working now. I have no clue how)

Right...especially if the NDB is the only approach available...

Excellent thread. I vote we put this on the home page under Primary info. Keep posting updates and info for any other poor suckers in this situation. A few notes and questions: More a comment than anything else. A lot of AF guys I flew with in T-44 Advanced had serious issues changing...

(Don't let the following post stop anyone from the ensuing a$s-raping of our new friend) Good things about Naval Aviation: Getting a plane from the front office and 3 days for "airways training" that coincides with a squadron-mate's wedding in Vegas. someday I'll have a sh!tty job with...

someone just sent me this. yeah i don't know either. http://jetpilot.ytmnd.com/ bring on the hate rep edit: biggest. zipper. ever.

I know it's a huge pain in the a$s to get a pizza delivered to the Q after 10pm. Plan accordingly.

Let's hope not. There's enough military (read: sausage) on Oahu as it is.
