Over five thousand years ago, Moses said to the children of Israel "pick up your shovel, mount your asses and camels, and I will lead you to the promised land". Nearly 75 years ago, Roosevelt said, "Lay down your shovels, sit on your asses and light up a camel, this is the promised land." ... Read More Now Obama is going to steal your shovel, kick your asses, raise the price of camels and mortgage the promised land.

www.afblues.com This is a web comic from an Air Force stand point. I've been following for a long time, and it's pretty funny stuff. The main character is an F-15 pilot, but some stuff translates to all planes, and all services. P. S. I hope it's okay to post this. If not, I won't be offended it disappears!

Sorry if this offends. Some times I just cant help myself! . ................................................................................ The Pope and Nancy Pelosi are on the same stage in front of a huge crowd. The Pope leans towards Mrs. Pelosi and said, "Do you know that with one little wave of my hand I can make every person in this crowd go wild with joy? This joy will not be a momentary display, like that of your followers, but go deep into their hearts and they'll forever speak of this day and rejoice!" Pelosi replied, "I seriously doubt that. With one little wave of your hand? Show me" So the Pope slapped her.

A Soldier Comes Home On July 5, The Post published a letter from Martha Gillis of Springfield, whose nephew, Lt. Brian Bradshaw, was killed in Afghanistan on June 25, the day that Michael Jackson died. The letter criticized the extensive media coverage of Jackson's death compared with the brief coverage of Lt. Bradshaw's death. Among the responses was the following letter, written July 9 by an Air National Guard pilot and a fellow member of the crew that flew Lt. Bradshaw's body from a forward base in Afghanistan to Bagram Air Base. Capt. James Adair, one of the plane's pilots, asked the editorial page staff to forward the letter to the Bradshaw family. He and Brian Br…

I was on the Air Force's web site and I noticed a couple of articles about the CMSAF visiting various bases in PACAF. They were interesting, and it's good to see senior leadership getting out there and meeting the troops. Now to my observation: I noticed a link to Chief Roy's bio, so I clicked on it. He's been in for nearly 30 years, and looking at his ribbon rack on his blues, he has not ONE ribbon/medal/device from any sort of contingency/conflict/deployment/etc. I read his bio to confirm, and he spent his early years as a CE-type, then went into MPF, and ended up as the command chief at various (predominently) AETC bases. Curious, I looked further to see if t…

Went to the range the other day and shooting my carry gun and had a squib load (primer only, no gunpowder) and now I have a bullet lodged HARD into the barrel, now to find a way to get it out without damaging the barrel. Scary part is this is my carry gun, what would have happened if I had to use it and this happened - seriously screwed is what I would have been. This was with MagTech ammo, anybody else have trouble with their ammo?

This has been a wonderful year for me, starting out meeting and spending a few days with my (now) good friend, and mountain guide, MTcrewchief, also meeting and visiting with Giz and his wife over dinner. What a super guy! Both of my new friends are terrific people, and I look forward to spending more time with them in 2013!!!!!!!! As if making new friends wasn't enough, I met up with a very old and dear friend. She is old, fat, ugly, and on "crutches" now, but what a reunion with old #877!!!!!!! I have been truly blessed this year and I want to send a very Blessed Christmas greeting to all of you out there. This community of C-130 folks means a great deal to me!!!…

I have a question that maybe one of you guys can answer for me. Does the USAF keep records of daily missions? Also if they do, do they keep them in an archive somewhere? The reason I ask, is while reading many books on the ground war/infantry actions in Viet Nam, I have discovered that most of the books I have read the authors have been able to go back to their unit records and check their memories with what actually happened on what mission and what day! Names and everything! I am still looking for any records/missions that would include my experiences on Jan 1st. 1968. If they did keep a daily log on each acft or mission, would they still be available? As the yea…
