:D :D Always look closely...it reveals all....:D :D

This does not look like SPAM. He's out of EU. I wouldn't mind finding a good deal like this while I was deployed to Bahrian. Lots of guys bring their cars with them.

Sounds like you don't want to be an officer, just a pilot. Thus, I recommend you work for a commuter airlines and then get a "decent job." G

You realize that NFOs are officers in the US Navy too. We don't fly 100% of the time. If they offered you NFO again?

Didn't Seaman Jones marry Seaman Schmuckatelly?

Live by the Gauge...Die by the Gauge.

Anyone know what is the minimum passing scores for the first graded PRT at the beginning of API for an Ensign? r/ G

Confidential right up to the first subpoena...

The XO was the guy who kept the booxe under his rack in a lock box...and heck he was just a JO a couple of tours ago...so good times could be had... I had a bottle of Crown Royal in my underwear drawer behind my Glock 19. It was only broken out one time. After a near night time mid-air 7 miles...

Ahhh yes... Tasha....good times.

Not funny.

Have had several beer days. They can be fun. Rule was no port call in 60 days, with no potential port call in next 15 + 2 beers per person. Time for beer day determined by CO. On one on the Stennis in the NAS in early 2002, the other CVN with us had a bad beer day. 17k cans for 3000...

The feed problems I heard about were due to not cleaning the weapon real well and "waxy"ammo. But I had no problems with this. I'll PM you. The 22 SA is a Rohm pistol. I got the M60 rifle and pistol both used for $40. The SA pistol is suprisingly accurate, easy to clean and all around fun to...

Practice makes perfect....Congrats

Yep, a daisy Red Ryder Buck...the smaller of the two Daisy Red Ryders. My plan is to have him so comfortable around real guns and rifles, that when a kid in school says, "Hey want to come see my dad's gun, I found it in the closet?"...my boy can say, "No thanks I shoot all the time with my...

Took the Sig Mosquito to the range last week. Put 300 rounds through it with out a problem. Had a couple of misfires, that fired on the second try in DA mode. Most likely crappy 22lr ammo was the problem there. At 90% the size of a Sig P226 it was blast to shoot. Two ten round magazines made...

My concern here is if and when you finish training and get commissioned. The "I can hack it" mentality you have is pretty dangerous to flying. Flying sick or under the weather is my concern for you. Make sure you recage your gyro and get the correct mindset if you start to fly. "I can hack...

Multi-engine heavy jet engine time?? Maybe they'll give you a % of the flight to rotary wing and a % to fixed wing for equivalent time for say an airline job. Any ATP please ring in.

Cool stuff, a big deck, electric cats, lots of electric power... and a proprietary Magnetron (c) recovery system as demonstrated here by a hovering Hornet during a "Magnetron" recovery test.

Worked in Air Ops for 2.5 years on that boat, through two full deployments ('00 and '01-02). God Speed.

Welcome to the forum. Please just post your questions here to begin with rather than PMing them. It's okay I understand... Not 100% true. We're still buying F/A-18E/Fs and currently developing the F-35C for the Navy. No real trend to get rid of pilots in the Navy that I know of. So our...

UINavy, Good point. Your turn around time really can vary, that's why I gave a range based on what I've seen. If you're VRC, you may be back on det within months.

What we do.... But seriously...workups and and IDTC (inter-deployment training cycle) will keep you busy. Flight hours taper off after you get back to maybe 10-20 hours/moth. They ramp up as you near deployment to about 30 hours/month (aircraft dependant). Detachments for A/G and guns, boat...

it looks like it's looking for a handout...

Helos trading paint, just ain't the same as fighters trading paint... Glad they got on deck safe.

Why yes. And when you can take the marble from my hand...

raptor10, do not just cut and paste. The value of the post is not the link, but rather what you have to say about it. You comments please....

That's a lot of ammo in one year. Did you buy it in bulk? :confused:

This answers a lot of Navy related flag questions. Actually more than you'll ever need to know. NTP 13(B) is an unclassified, non-registered publication that details Naval procedures for Flags, Pennants and Customs.

I would say thank you under my breath to the apartment complex manager for providing me with pellet rifle targets....and snipe them out.

We have nicer buildings. :icon_tong

Hey, I have those songs on my iPod favorite playlist...:icon_rage :icon_rage But seriously....:sleep_125 :sleep_125 :sleep_125 :sleep_125 :sleep_125 :sleep_125 :sleep_125

Your first thread on this topic should be on another forum. Closed.

Freudian slip? or not?

YGTBSM...did you know Capt Bob Curbeam, on the last shuttle flight is an NFO...guess he has no future....wrong! You make your own future. You should be worrying about doing well in training and in the fleet at this point and less about 20 years down the road. As you promote you'll see doors...

In other words..."I want your help, but don't want to tell you my problem..." ??? Good luck.

Be "That" guy.

I smell hoax chain mail...

Isn't that where everyone has to carry a weapon by law? I can only wish... r/ G ...in maryland...damn.

Great info. Thanks to all. v/r and r/ G

Not to sound like a killjopy...but the auctions I saw were a tad expensive...$2500. Are there cheaper rifles available for the average weekend shooter, that are perhaps not match grade 100% mint? Cheers, G

But remember where you're headed...The Unofficial Redneck Capital of the US. A trailer parked out front is a sign of prosperity and good fortune. You'll be envied.

Expunged or not you must reveal it on your ESPQ. Question is "Have you ever been arrested?"...not neccessarily convicted. Hide nothing be honest and explain what you are doing to fix the DUI problem and the drinking problem.

I work with an OS1 who just got picked up for transition CTI and DLI. PM me and perhaps I can get the two of you to contact each other. r/ G

Reminds me of the old "difference betwen a Moped and Fat Chick" joke...

Try www.grunt.com or www.leatherneck.com for ground combat. We do however co-exist with USMC air. r/ G

"Is this squadron meal gonna be separate checks or altogether???'' "Altogether...great...I'll have the Steak and Lobster." Had that guy in my squadron...YGTBSM.

My favorite...:):):)

Wrap it in aluminum foil (or similar)...helps to some extent...basic RF shielding. The interference is a Bzzzzzt sound with every sweep of the ship's radar antenna and possibly quick white static/snow in the image. In the island, digital cameras (mine included) have been known to simply shut...
