Ok, this is purely out of curiosity. Just got done watching the new Netflix doc about the Thunderbirds and the squadron commander Col. Justin "Astro" Elliott was a graduate of both AF Weapons School and AF TPS before taking command of the Thunderbirds. Thought this was pretty interesting since, on the Navy side at least, I always understood these to be different career paths. Anyone know of any unicorns like this on the Navy side? After TOPGUN switched from power projection course to the SFTI program that is. I know TOPGUN sends SFTI occasionally to operational test (VX-9 I think) and some TPS guys going SELRES getting the TOPGUN adversary rocker but anyone out there doing SFTI and TPS to ending up in developmental testing.
