    Summer Cruises

    Huh, well just make sure you don't piss off the prior-enlisted 1st Classman, who starts out hating your guts, but because you're so tenacious, and you remind him of himself, takes you under his wing and mentors you into the bestest Midshipman there is.;) At least Plebe Summer only lasts a few...

    You forgot that the troublemaker ends up hooking up with the hottie upper-classwoman.:D I'm glad I never saw that movie.

    Foreign A/C carriers

    Excuse the minor threadjack, but is the U.S. the only supplier of a/c carrier catapults? I remember reading somewhere, probably one of my many tomes about naval aviation, that all the countries that use catapults on their carriers buy theirs and the required parts from U.S. companies. For...

    What is your favorite Navy/USMC aircraft?

    I like 'em all, but if I had to pick one, it would definitely be the F-14 Tomcat. Now, my favorite AF bird of all time would have to be either the B-17 or the SR-71.

    Khaki questions

    Holy crap! I thought it was socially unacceptable to look like a Kennedy out sailing for the weekend? Still, Service Dress Khakis look totally badass, they should be returned in time for when I enter the service.

    Dayum. I'll be happy if Uncle Sam lets me spend 20 years in the world's greatest Navy.

    Forgive my ignorance, but what are Service Dress Blue Yankees? I couldn't find a picture.

    Man, y'all were salty back in the day. Those are the kind of stories that make me want to join the Navy.

    Don't Lock your Knees!

    I joined for the express purpose of being able to access the shock & awe section. I hear they have message boards too, but I ain't goin' near 'em. In CAP I make a habit of telling new cadets not to lock their knees at Attention to prevent just that from happening. I've heard abotu it happening...

    VMI, The Citadel, or VTCC?

    Well, this past week I got to visit both VMI and The Citadel, and I got to talk with the football coaches, department heads of my major, and NROTC representatives. I think I've made my decision and I'll fill y'all in when I get back to Los Angeles.

    What did Rumsfeld fly?

    I didn't know you could be in the reserves while doing the cabinet secretary/congressman/VP/president thing. I would think the government job would get in the way of military service. Donald Rumsfeld is also a badass, just sayin'.

    Low Harrier

    Is there any video of that? I would love to see it. I didn't even know that a hunter or jaguar could fit under the wings of a C-130. Pilot In Command: "Whoa, what the hell was that!?!?!?" Co-pilot: "I dunno, but I think I'm gonna need a new flightsuit." Engineer: "What's that smell?" :D

    Cheezy but pretty cool overall

    That was cool, what's that from? One of those cheesy B-movies, Iron Eagle? Mountain. Mountain. Mountain. Classic.

    VMI, The Citadel, or VTCC?

    Hell, I can't even get on the NROTC website. It keeps timing out on me. So I emailed my OSO in hopes that he'll respond with some good news and will answer a few more of my questions.

    VMI, The Citadel, or VTCC?

    Well, I just heard back from VA Tech. Appears that they are very grateful that I applied, but don't think that I am Hokie material. Their loss. Scratch another one off of the list. So if you are playing the home version of this game, now is the time to take out your score cards out and cross...

    Proper Ejection Position

    Honestly, I never even touched on proper ejection procedure, Goose just made a comment about contact sports and I thought I should step in with my two cents about football. I left the whole ejection thing to the professionals and carried out a very informative and entertaining side...

    Fraternization

    What about counseling? Say an enlisted guy has a whole bunch of problems and you decide to "take him under your wing," for lack of a better term, and help him with said problems. Say this means making calls to check up on him, and see how he's doing off-duty. Can this be construed as...

    Why you wanted/want to be in the Military?

    Thank you for your insight, sir. It's truly something special to be able to sit here and learn from the guys who have been there, done that, and gotten the t-shirt. Perhaps we can also get A4s to weigh in on this? Calling A4sForever, come in A4sForever. . . . .

    Online radiostations ??

    Nkawtg, Actually, KROQ has started broadcasting online. THe only caveat is you have to register as part of their "KROQ Street Team," which is basically just a fan club type thing. In fact I'm listening to it right now. Man, I love technology.:headphone KROQ.com

    Proper Ejection Position

    Yeah, wrestling is pretty rough. I don't know why anyone in their right mind would cut weight as drastically as some of the wrestlers I know do. I just seems so unhealthy. But hey, to each his own. Me, personally, I love kick-off and kick-off return. It's nothing but guys going out there and...

    Proper Ejection Position

    Usually, when you get hit and see it coming, your muscles and especially your neck muscles, tense up which stiffens your body. This is one of the reasons we lift a crapload of weights, it keeps us more durable so we can survive harder hits. If you get hit in the back, usually you have a facemask...

    Proper Ejection Position

    I wouldn't say any contact sport. In football we're taught to keep our heads up at all times. If you drop your head while tackling you can break your neck. Also, you spear the guy you're tackling, which is illegal(And for good reason!). If you're the one being tackled, usually you have two...

    Airborne Laser

    :icon_lol: No, I'm sick right now, and if that isn't enough to throw me off my game, the sudafed I'm taking has a tendency to slow my thought processes down. THen add in the fatigue of not being able to sleep. Well, I'm sure you get the picture. Being sick sucks!:icon_rage

    Airborne Laser

    Come again? Seriously, I know it has something to do with the Austin powers references above, but the antihitamine-induced haze I'm in right now is making it hard to follow your train of thought. Can you help me out? :) I'd like to buy a vowel, Alex.:D

    Why you wanted/want to be in the Military?

    Military service has always been a calling for me. You see, I've always wanted to fly, every since I was a small child. Some of my first distinct memories of my grandfather are of him telling stories of his time flying C-47s in WWII and Korea. He instilled in me a love of service, country, and...

    That sure would get me to join the Air Force, you know, if I hadn't already decided to go Navy. I think this just reinforces the myth about Air Force women.

    Airborne Laser

    You know, I have one simple request. And that is to have sharks with frickin' laser beams attached to their heads! Now evidently my cycloptic colleague informs me that that cannot be done. Ah, would you remind me what I pay you people for, honestly? Throw me a friggin' bone here!

    Will this "laser" be attached to the heads of sharks?

    Richard Belzer is a douchebag. I guess that's one more reason why I don't watch Law & Order: SVU that much any more.

    Junior in High School, Interested in Career as Fighter Pilot.

    It's the Reputation Point System. I give some out to one person because I'm a nice guy and then when that person posts something of merit again I can't give any Rep to them because you have to give rep out to 20 people before you give it to the same person twice. It's kind of convoluted. Steve...
