Did someone say repost? j/k

Next it will be a dramatic chipmunk....

They need little yellow and blue tails. Ever see a really large school of anchovies while diving off SOCAL??? Wow.

Or you could go here: http://www.airwarriors.com/forum/showthread.php?t=11759 Where it's already laid out for you. :)

Sorry I had to say it...you must learn to spell, too.

52. You've had someone walk up to you in a USO and out of the blue say..."Hey, you're Schnugg on Air Warriors aren't you?"

I decorated my very first issue flight jacket from 1985 with patches. I eventually traded it in for a larger size. Remember I was a svelte 38R back then at age 23. The jacket I received is made in the USA by a company called Excelled. I never put any patches on it as I didn't want any holes in...

I can only imagine the lengthy inbrief and outbrief you'd get from your SSO, NCIS, DIA, CIA, etc...

I have seen CDs start to peel and flake...on the writeable side. So that would not be my long term permanent storage solution. The number of times you can write to a flash drive is in the millions...I would not worry about that point of failure on a good drive (ie. SanDisk).

Not just yet.... Biography: SNA/SNFO applicant

Yeah...that's what I meant. :o It's where we obtained rifles for my high school's rifle team....way back in late 70s.

DCM...Department of Civilian Marksmanship. :D

Routine Back up to a flash drive in 8GB or greater is a good idea. No moving hardrives or parts. I'd expect greater capacity flash drives inthe near future. As HJ said, creating a filing method now will save countless headaches later.

I rest my case. :D

"I know what I'm talking about.....and is that a Pledge Pin???"

Which leads into the game of "Crud." A homo-erotic USAF game that involves lots of hip contact and thrusting...check out the guy in the armor in the background...WTF USAF???? OK, so maybe I just never got the excitement of it all.

From here..."The ebay Scalper" communication Network? :D

The Babe (Lincoln) Chucky V (Carl Vinson) The Big E (Enterprise) The Danger (Ranger) Every ship's got one...

A4s, those grills are the same ones we still use now for Steel beach. Somethings never change. On the Big E in 89 while on station in the GOO, we launched an Alert 15 out of a Steel Beach picnic on a "inbound Iraninan F-4 out of Jask" tipper call. The purported inbound ended up being a...

The final 1 die vs 1 die series was called "piddling" wasn't it.

There was a rule that said no one was allowed out on the roof ledges. After the first mishap while I was at USNA it was reinforced. Then it happened again. They both broke the rules. What does "with no safety mean?" I'm being sarcastic here, but is equipping every mid with a rock climbing...

Unfortunately it does have bearing on that. You know as well as I do how alcohol can lower inhibitions and make people do things they never think of doing on Monday morning when sober. Lowered inhibitions result in: Drinking and driving, huge bar tabs (:o), STDs, unwanted pregnancies, sexual...

What was your blood pressure that they took at your physical?

All nice, but will my rates go down?

So, if you drink, get drunk and crawl out onto a ledge 60 feet up for a smoke or to make a phone call, is it just an accident or is it stupidity? Or is it a drunken mishap caused by a person who was "taught" personal responsibility in GMT and SMT, and drank to excess anyways? I believe the...

Very nice, but what kind of music should accompany that video? Classical perhaps? Nope, I'd like some Bluegrass with a fiddle...:)

I was at the Miramar O'Club during the post Tailhook Foc'sle Follies Fiasco. This is the party at the O'Club the Friday night prior to the Tomcat Ball (west coast F-14 annual formal ball) The infamous rolling bowling ball skit where the ball rolled down a series of shelves. At each shelf end...

Well it came too late to help M/N Ruggerio, Dixon and Carr. They never made it to graduation. Two got drunk and fell out of Bancroft Hall from a 4th floor window. One drank and chose to ride in a car driven by his drunk friend who crashed it, killing him. If it keeps one mid from killing...

Polynesian...Samoan.....Irish-Italian-American....Pakistani.....who freakin' cares about that? He's the "New Head Football Coach at Navy"...no more.

Unfortunately, being mis-counciled means nothing to the Navy money people in PSD. They follow and comply with the letter of the law of the officer transfer manual and the JTFRs. Which means that everyone will commiserate with you, and feel for you, but big Navy will F$%& you anyways on the pay...

I was at Hook the year before the blow up. It was ugly in the third floor hallway outside the admins at night. We would not open our door to the hallway or let females exit to the hallway...too dangerous. A bartender from Miramar stopped into our admin and asked if we could help her get to...

"And what are they for?"

Do a Google for Tailhook 91 and you'll see... 'Nuff said.

Phrogpilot's house after dropping a load of $$$ at Home Depot.....

I remember "Sperm'n" Sherman on the Stennis. He was afraid the CODs would break. So craned them on. Very insulting to VRC-30.

Great video HJ...they still have a lot to learn about flight deck operations and safety.

$14m for 6 years.....Money talks.

Tally is a bad guy, visual is your wingy.

Nose is right...Cherubs is out...Angels is in for boat/tower ATC calls.

No worries, Cat. Call it what you will...but for me and my JO wardroom buddies, it was the freakin' whistle from hell.

If you got accepted to OCS and that is what you want...wish your buds well and go to OCS. You'll get your turn in the barrel sooner than you think.

Or on my deployments it came out more like this: Thweepers, thweepers, man your brooms.....blah, blah....thweep down all blower decks and bladderwells....blah, blah....now thweepers." We'd stop in the p-way look at each other and ask WTF is a blowerdeck and a bladderwell? :icon_smil Good...

It's all just "Pointy Nose Envy." :) But we still love you P-3 guys...:D

The "creases" in the air are the shock wave as that part of the jet goes supersonic. It will move to the front of the jet as speed increases. It can be seen from inside the jet. Most noticable down low in humid environement. Parts of the jet over humps, blisters or bubbles on the airframe...

Does anyone remember the time Santa crashed the F-14A while taxxing at NKX doing an arrival for squadron member's little kids at Hangar 3. I think it was VF-211. "Cookie" was CO and had Santa in his back seat. :) Following an unusual start up....the jet started to taxi with only the right...

E-mail can take milli-seconds. In the old days...with the C-2 delivering all our mail, it could take many many weeks. Now the supply lines are in pretty good shape. The mail gets to the AOR in a week or so, from there the time to the ship or unit depends on where it is operating and...

When you you look outside from the starboard catwalk and see blowing snow and zero visibility, the weather is "squeeze." As in Dog Squeeze. WOXOF = Opposite of CAVU

Unfortunately, sometimes, the good die young.

Let dead dogs lie....keep the thread on the topic of the OP...or it will be locked.

Back on topic now....how'd that get there????
