too early for scotch?

Lousy news. I always enjoy seeing Hunters and Kfirs/C-21's in the pattern down here in Jax and the puzzled look on folks faces trying to figure out what the hell they are...

Amusing, with scotch. Enjoy. http://video.foxnews.com/v/3845184948001/report-isis-being-trained-to-fly-3-captured-fighter-jets/#sp=show-clips Lea Gabrielle Lea Gabrielle serves as a general assignment reporter for Shepard Smith Reporting (3-4PM/ET) on FOX News Channel (FNC). Before...

First Super T's rolling out of Jax for the Afghans...God help us...training out of Moody. http://www.news4jax.com/news/new-military-planes-roll-out-of-jacksonville-plant/28247746

^amen.

If your interested in continuity, here's Charlie (who now bats for the other team). So, she'd be senior/retired SES by now, so that fits. That's gonna be one helluva a love scene...

Congrats on the new liver...hope you are breaking it in properly.:D

It was said the revelations from his espionage brought the Soviets up a generation in quieting technology.

When you get to the boat, look at the 0-5's who are geo-bach'ing. What price sanity? That is all.

The fact that some bean counters needed 37 slides to say the same shit we've all felt at one time or another since joining the Navy is in itself, retarded. Deployments suck, you miss your family, finances are tough, half of the LT's don't know whether to stay or go, camaraderie and espirit de...

I don't normally associate with 0-4's ..but when I do, it's with AZ guys....

No CVN would ever get underway.

No idea what you are saying. I didn't sign on to any current bandwagon with my statement. You made an assumption. The "pray tell" is especially nice touch. Just saying from my observation of history, that he (Putin) is in a position to dictate the course of events in the Ukraine and there's not...

So what. Putin is a narcissistic wanne-be Czar. He will shape this event to his liking and won't give a damn what the rest of the world thinks because he thinks we won't do anything about it. And he's right.

Disclaimer: Retired 0-4 for 2.5 years, not DOD, in the civilian juris prudence world in a medium sized 150 employee office with about 6 other Veterans. Didn't want to do defense contractor stuff, but it was my back-up plan. Got hired 4 months prior to retirement in the mid 80's and the office is...

Boeing will offer them at a discount, the Navy will pay double to get the windows fixed.

^^^which means you'll be fired for a liberty incident. Sorry, Meredith. Too easy.

beer tasted better that day...

I had the pleasure of flying with Doug. Great guy. Small world. By the time I flew with him, I don't think he actually said any checklists, just some single syllable harummphs, and away we go. I'd swear on a couple of the longer jet route nav legs, he'd catch a nap. :D

T-39 retirement should be awesome, what an aircraft.

Beautiful.

OCS flashcards?......holy shit. Class 15-96, yut.

^^^Don't forget the smokes!! Luckys or Camels....the key to a meaningful debrief/AAR.

The report will have to indict Shinseki's higher-level folks. His departure will only provide cover for those who will burrow in deeper and the systemic problems will remain. What about the VISN Directors? Did they have knowledge of this? Those are your dept heads. If the report shows that he...

hmmm..sounds like EVERY flight with a Saudi.

The smell of burritos coming from the sky pig is a particularly nice touch.

Don't try to crap out of the hellhole on a 60B. No matter how bad the pork adobo was.... Maybe more physics than an a "quirk".

In short: Not gonna happen. Generally, you have to earn your warfare designator in your initial field (Aviation, SWO, etc) before you'd be considered for lat transfer. 2+ years, then a recommendation from your command, blah, blah, blah... Don't want to burst your bubble, but they've got too...

Gator MOA madness...don't worry about those caution lights...

Don't buy the NLSO or "walk-in" line at all. If you have any concerns, I recommend you retain private counsel specializing in government contract law and are Martindale-Hubbell database rated. Your local American Bar Association will gladly refer you to qualified firms and the Veteran fraternity...

^^^ah Rincon....very nice.

Fair Winds....

Pussy.

No they won't. DD214, yes. Fitreps no. The obvious niche defense job aside. Virtually all Corporate and even gov't jobs will interpret your 214 and that's about it. Frankly, 214's are written in a foreign language already, much less fitreps. After working in the non-defense civilian world...

did somebody say "Omega"?

Unless the Staffs go away...

More importantly, how about the fact there are houses right across the street, no fences. hell, no signs. Just planes landing and dudes parachuting into field. 'Merica.

Damn, that's rough.^^ Even if you make 0-4, are they allowing continuation to 20?

It's plausible, seeing what happens to Vets with anything other than "honorable" in block 24 and colorful phraseology in block 28. The VA's willingness or unwillingness to provide advertised services is sometimes subjective and it seems reasonable to assume the ACA machine, being another...

95 in HSL, '00 in the P-3

Budget proposal highlights from DODbuzz... http://www.dodbuzz.com/2014/03/05/drones-helos-and-ships-win-in-2015-budget/

Clearly not serving top-shelf booze in the cabin on this leg.

Ensign-mobile time!!!

^^Ha, this brings back some great memories of PAR training/currency evolutions...hearing "Over, the landing threshold" and seeing grass. Scene from "Bladerunner" where you hear PAR lingo...

^^^good to see some of the Old Guard living the good life...

There are a few operational flying slots with AFSOC/JSOC for "seasoned" NA/NFO's. It was supposed to be temporary, but going on 8~ish years now. A former JSOC NA is now a Det OIC at a west-coast HSM squadron and also a JTAC. Clearly, I need to work in some more acronyms.

Gawd Damn...and the gun safe is in your living room. Net 2 aboves...
