"you talkem big game" (said in an old western movie Native American voice) lol
Don't you get it man? Yeah, I hate the Navy's lifestyle and have a problem with the (unwritten) policies towards officer/enlisted segregation and social classification. Those comments were the only ones I made in seriousness. The defensive posture concerning the cracks about AF pilots is all part of the game. You say we suck, I say we don't suck and that you suck, I'm outnumbered on a predominantly Navy board, everybody jumps on the dogpile, its fun. Whatever, I'm just holding up my end of the interservice rivalry, even though it was pointed out to me that I am not qualified to do so. It's my excuse for poking around in the proverbial hornets nest. No, I haven't yet earned the title of Air Force pilot, even though I am a commercial pilot. However, having been selected as a pilot candidate, I feel a bit of loyalty to the Air Force pilots, and the knowledge that I will be an Air Force pilot upon completion of UPT in a little over a year adds to my interest in the rivalry. Wannabe? Damn straight, even though I prefer gonnabe. Always have been and always will be. What about you? Don't you want to be something? Do you have the balls, desire, determination, courage, skill, and intelligence to do whatever it is you've always wanted to do? I claim the title of wannabe with pride, because that's the only way to get to the goal.
