Tomcat dudes = I keed...sort of.

Here in Jax on Saturday, the commissary started electronically scanning all ID cards before your purchase. Seems like it's metrics gathering time. Probably an excellent time to start the pool on filthy retiree vs. active-duty commissary use.

2 of my girls standing in the same spot holding the crew photo of their great-grandfather in late 1943 under his B-17F "Tallywacker" after receiving the DFC for completing 25 missions.

^^pretty good 'stache too.

yet another good reason for living in the South?

clear;y a worthy mission for Task Force Uniform...after they fix the ObamaCare website naturally.

A CASA that sucked up a couple of mortars at BAF.

rgr, tx.

Did that hog .270 cartridge feature a spitzer or OTM bullet?

Fantastic...shit, I just want to get some Georgia does next month for sausage... Congrats.

How could you not slip this in? Maybe the follow-up piece, eh?

^^^^^future callsign alert^^^^^ "NutSack" too soon?

this would be a more appropriate weapons loadout...

Ohhhhh! The terror! 30 MLM's! Probably more than the entire years' allotment these days for the Wing. Seriously, you could get a nasty cut from peeling back a Mk-58...

auto dog, bitches!

shit, Detroit is more dangerous than Bagram. Maybe we should garrison returning Marines there? Sure would keep up the CQB quals.

can't believe we're still shooting 'poons. what a pos.... make that a non-discriminatory pos.

only one 'stache?

The guy on the left is obviously a graduate of Task Force Uniform...

Man, I remember the neon sign on top of that place in the early 90's and the midget that was the doorman...awesome.

http://www.military.com/video/aircraft/jet-fighters/first-f-35c-arrives-at-eglin-afb/2515940634001/ Last week... Now that's some proper looking CV landing gear too! Excellent "Grim Reapers" tail art also...

while they're at it, how about a status check on the paperless Navy?

Dungarees f-ing sucked ass. Yup, hands almost in worthless front pockets!

Equally embarrassing is the entire notion of "Task Force Uniform". Utterly ridiculous.

ah, excellent. tx again. minus 1 for recce. I'll choke myself with my own hand.

rgr, tx.

what kind of ball is on the Zulu? Doesn't look like a wescam.

Too bad she won't keep the sweet beard. That is an awesome downrange tuft of goodness.

Nice update. I was expecting creatine to get Class C'd.

^^^Indeed.

Raise a drink to these men. VT-4 donated a framed picture in '08 at the Mustin Beach O'Club.

I enjoy walking the commissary aisles and gently tasing the power chair crowd. You know, the 300 lb. cripples who can suddenly leap out of the hover-round when they're fighting for the last bag of pork rinds. It's the little things.

Some nanny commands make the requestor actually print out directions and mileage from mapquest. That and of course, the obligatory breathalyzer. oops, just noticed the above reference to mapquest. Nothing to see here, move along. Did I mention it's good to be retired?

So, how many O-3's are getting their walking papers these days? I saw some O-4's get booted with 14-16 years in just 24 months ago. But shit, an O-4 selection board with a 60% rate. Damn, then only to be "cannon fodder" for the next xx years....

I was going to mention the SA9121. Douglas barrel, walnut with a nifty adjustable cheek rest, double lug, match everything...

Only thing I'll add is going from balls-to-the-wall helo AW shit to Maritime NFO paperwork/bureaucracy stuff was "different". After 8 years as an A-dub floating my ass off, I chose lifestyle in VP (and interestingly so did 3 other former helo-AW's in my OCS class). If I were you, I'd go to a...

whoa....slow down there...this is much more I-ran speed.

FJ-1 FURY, best caption What to do with A-pool ensigns during sequester.

Can you imagine the PAC-FIRE safety/shenanigans brief?

Nice find^^

We haven't even talked about MAD altitude compensation values...

I'm interested in the $ as to why no municipality has jumped on the chance to turn a supercarrier into a museum/restaurant/attraction. It would take one hell of a business coalition, but it seems to have worked out for Intrepid, Yorktown, and Midway. Midway has an especially nice setup. Supers...

If memory serves, water hours were imposed because too many Hollywoods were happening. You remember, take the metal clip holding the shower curtain up and fashion it to hold the shower button in? The XO flipped out and beatings were administered accordingly. Good times.

Washing Cutlass 471 somewhere in the Black Sea in the Spring 92'. Water hours on the boat. Turco stings a little on the skin but it sure as shit gets you clean. I know, Safety Violators...yeah, yeah...

welcome to the good life Bunk...

5 month investigation? Jesus...what a f-ing waste. So what's his consolation prize? Does he get to head up the NEXT Task Force Uniform?
