Well here's hoping the idiots will wake up now that the corrupt dimocrap morons are passing the healthcare bill. I always love getting a 200% tax increase now for a decrease in medical care in five years. But thats okay,. as long as social parasites that have never done a lick of nothing but collect welfare can have more for free Keep your powder dry and fix bayonets boys!! (How does pelosi figure calling it a "bipartisan" bill when zero Republicans voted for it?, maybe she means extreme left commie demo's and moderate capitulating demos?)

Found this online, hope you like it also.. Mike Thompson You Can Leave The Military, But It Never Really Leaves You The Charlestown Post and Courier Thursday, March 4, 2010 Occasionally, I venture back out to the air base where I'm greeted by an imposing security guard who looks carefully at my identification card, hands it back and says, "Have a good day, tech sergeant." Every time I go back onto Charleston Air Force Base it feels good to be called by my previous rank, but odd to be in civilian clothes, walking among the servicemen and servicewomen going about their duties as I once did, years ago. The military, for all its flaws, …

This video almost makes me miss commercial flying, except for all the crap you have to put up with. Also good if you like big jets Click here: YouTube - The FE's Lament 2010 HD Another good one. In fact, check out all of Balleka's videos on YouTube. MK Airlines is a British registered 747 cargo airline owned by Mike Kruger. They were originally registered in Ghana & would only hire Rhodesians. Click here: YouTube - Balleka's Channel#p/u/6/TesxpJdZWO8 Don R.

If you live in one of these states and have signed a petition against Fag marriages, your name may be listed on a several different sites by name county, city, zip and street address. The primary purpose of posting these names if for retribution, harassment and violence from peter puffing activists. So if your name is there be warned and fix bayonets. Here's one of the sites listing names (I feel really left out, they haven't included me and I know I have signed lots and lots of these petitions). http://knowthyneighbor.org/ Dan

I was looking for images of the V22 from a little soirée, the 58th Special Operations Wing put on a few weeks back. It was one of those "we would like to use your property to conduct our training exercises" kind of deals. I took a few good pics and film - but wanted something better. Anyways... I found this lovely PDF at their website. http://www.aetc.af.mil/shared/media/document/AFD-070103-004.pdf At first glance it looks as though the USAF owns every bit of airspace, except for Deming, Taos, and southern Colorado. Not much in Deming. And Taos is full of liberal peace loving anti gun war hippies and artists. So no loss there. I like to imagine that the poster was …

I've been a bit out of touch with all things Air Force since trading in that green ID for the blue one....hard to believe 15 years have gone by. Anyone have any insight on the Command Chief Master Sergeants? Did this replace the First Sergeant? Know this is a herk forum but thought perhaps someone more recently retired, or still active might be able to save me from Google. (I retired early T.Q.M) Thanks much!

2/17/2010 - WASHINGTON (AFNS) -- The first woman to serve as major general in the Air Force, and the Department of Defense, passed away Feb. 15. Retired Maj. Gen. Jeanne M. Holm is credited as the single driving force in achieving parity for military women and making them a viable part of the mainstream military. The Portland, Ore., native attained the rank of two-star general in 1973 after a career that began 31 years earlier in 1942 when she enlisted in the Army. General Holm entered Women's Army Air Corps in January 1943 where she received a commission as third officer, the WAAC equivalent of second lieutenant. General Holm also became the first woman to atten…

Saw Season 13 Episode 3 of Top Gear on BBC America Monday night. In one segment James May comes to an airfield in the California desert to ride with Stunt and Rally driver Ken Block. I didn't catch the name of the airfield but it appeared to be an old military base (ammo igloos). In a couple of quick scenes there was what appeared to be a camo painted civilian Herk. Anyone know where this is and which aircraft?

After flying as a pax and touring the flight deck cockpit I am wondering how in the world anyone can manage to sleep on the bed that is in the cockpit.Was it made for very small crewmembers or what?The mattress on the bunk had to be designed by a massocist!One load master told me that he had a hammock in his bag.I thought he was pulling my johnson but then he showed it to me.But still I was told that the bunk was mainly used to just store bags and stuff on.What gives?What is a augmented crew?And who gets the bunk?
