He did get the traps...I was there.....1000 Trap Club and he did it when everyone was done. He had the pattern to himself....turn downwind immediately vice the stud 1nm upwind and then turn. Plus, I don't think he had any problems with boltering. He is a solid all-around guy who remembers names, says hi all the time and introduces himself to everyone by his first name.He was at the July CQ det in JAX. Came out to the Truman but couldnt get the traps because of weather. I think he needed around 20 or so.
With all due respect Sir, you throw alot of stones thinking a disclaimer is going to make you look like something other than a douchebag. (Disclaimer:By saying With all due respect, you can pretty much say anything, right?)Between the Double Anchor dudes claiming their 1000 .......(disclaimer: Im not a NFO hater, god lets not start this f***ing argument please,
99% of the time orange and white don't mix with grey jets (I think it is against AIRLANT instructions?), unless strings (the A in FWA) are pulled.
Don't let allegiance get in the way of calling a spade a spade.
Let the LSO's or the OIC utilize whatever deck time is remains. LSO's who should be the kung fu masters of all things "boat" should be using the traps to aid in passing on the torch to the next generation. In an era of economics per "X", there is way more bang for the buck getting a JO with instructional sorties to teach a trap than some self seeker a plaque and a line in the program in the Tailhook program booklet.
I'll guarantee someone at the boat det wanted to go back and bag and was bumped, on more than one boat det.:icon_wink
^ how about your 1000 gallon pisser emptier club, pickle??

Between the Double Anchor dudes claiming their 1000 and O-6's downright abusing their rank to _steal_ traps from the JO's who deserve them I won't be re-upping my tailhook membership. Stuff like this defames my fraternity.
(disclaimer: Im not a NFO hater, god lets not start this f***ing argument please, I know we couldn't do some of the missions without them, in my world they should get to count every night trap they could see out the front of the airplane, and traps above O-5 should count as a CAG only... 2cents).
