    Riding on the wave....

    So you're saying this would not be a good week to carry your NROTC dummy rifle around in your back pack on campus...I know it's been done recently in the NW. Sadly there are those who will capitalize on this sensitivity for a while.

    Ground Safety Officer

    Get in touch with the Naval Safety Center...at the least peruse their web site. If something bad happens (unsafe and injury) around the squadron, they'll be looking for you with questions like, "Why didn't your squadron comply with NAVOSH Inst. #$#$%?" Shouldn't be too hard to get a program...

    Here is something you don't see everyday

    They were done hook up, with the wires stripped so there is no way they could trap. We don't have launch and recovery bulletins for their jets (except the E-2C of course) so we would take no risk of catching them. Also a couple of years ago we crossdecked an E-2C to their carrier. The French...

    Anyone with Esophoria?

    Eye muscle exercises can help with "lazy eye" symptoms...which is what that basically is. Not sure if you'll have time to make a difference...having had the PRK may be making your eyes function differently than they were used to for the past 20 or so years. It most likely exacerbated the...

    UAV operators to get DFC and Air Medals

    Guys operating battlefield UAVs are in the thick of it. If they earn a BS for their actions it is deserved. Perhaps operating a battlefield UAV while under fire could qualify for DFC. But I'm having a hard time with a DFC when you are remotely operating the device (like in Nellis AFB) and not...

    Salute a warrant officer?

    A cordial greeting is always appropriate... "Good morning, Warrant" Better yet, get to to know them. I was surprised how many CWOs and LDOs were on the Stennis ship's company and how helpful they could be.

    Donating

    How much do you get? $20...$30....just don't do it every week... I knew a guy who made a lot of coin going through college by hitting the "Bank" for a deposit of "Drain Babies" once a week. And he was the first one to say "Yup, I made $400 this month with a smile."

    Weapon Qualification

    Depending on when you report, it's possible you may be able to re-qual while on Basket Leave at USNA. Talk to the Chief in charge of the weps range at NSA and see if there are any qual dates between now and graduation...or shortly thereafter.

    Current NFO surplus...

    Odd...when NASC came to USNA for service selection night in Late Feb...they mentioned a potential shortage of SNFOs in late april or early May that may require some SNFOs to slide to an earlier start date. That was it. The reason was CNATRA does not want training aids and IPs sitting idle on...

    Interesting A-4

    Here's a unique A-4 shot. I wish I had the story behind this...anyone??? May not be a US jet. When I flew in the TA-4J, going off-roading was one of the few items that made me think about ejecting on deck due to the tall landing gear and chance of rolling over.

    Interesting A-4

    Speaking of VF-43.... When I was stashed with VF-43, they flew T-2, TA-4Js and F-21A Kfirs on loan from Israel. It landed so hot it used a drag chute. We flew them with a single centerline. A .8 was a long hop in that jet for our squadron.
