I scored a 71, but as the others have said I have been out of the HC for 13+ years.

This may be old but it made me laugh! With that said, I thought I would share it all of you. Enjoy! Husband banned from Target After I retired, my wife insisted that I accompany her on her trips to Target. Unfortunately, like most men, I found shopping boring and preferred to get in and get out. Equally unfortunate, my wife is like most women - she loves to browse. Yesterday my dear wife received the following letter from our local Target. Dear Mrs. Samsel, Over the past six months, your husband has caused quite a commotion in our store.. We cannot tolerate this behavior and have been forced to ban both of you from the store. Our complaints against your husband, Mr. Samsel, are listed below and are documented by our video surveillance cameras. 1. June 15: Took 24 boxes of condoms and randomly put them in other people's carts when they weren't looking. 2. July 2: Set all the alarm clocks in House wares to go off at 5-minute intervals. 3. July 7: He made a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to the women's restroom. 4. July 19: Walked up to an employee and told her in an official voice, 'Code 3 in House wares. Get on it right away'. This caused the employee to leave her assigned station and receive a reprimand from her Supervisor that in turn resulted with a union grievance, causing management to lose time and costing the company money. 5. August 4: Went to the Service Desk and tried to put a bag of M&Ms on layaway. 6. August 14: Moved a 'CAUTION - WET FLOOR' sign to a carpeted area. 7. August 15: Set up a tent in the camping department and told the children shoppers he would invite them in if they would bring pillows and blankets from the bedding department to which twenty children obliged. 8. August 23: When a clerk asked if they could help him he began crying and screamed, 'Why can't you people just leave me alone?' EMTs were called.. 9. September 4: Looked right into the security camera and used it as a mirror while he picked his nose. 10. September 10: While handling guns in the hunting department, he asked the clerk where the antidepressants were. 11. October 3: Darted around the store suspiciously while loudly humming the 'Mission Impossible' theme. 12. October 6: In the auto department, he practiced his 'Madonna look' by using different sizes of funnels. 13. October 18: Hid in a clothing rack and when people browsed through, yelled 'PICK ME! PICK ME!' 14. October 21: When an announcement came over the loud speaker, he assumed a fetal position and screamed 'OH NO! IT'S THOSE VOICES AGAIN!' And last, but not least: 15. October 23: Went into a fitting room, shut the door, waited awhile, and then yelled very loudly, 'Hey! There's no toilet paper in here.' One of the clerks passed out.

Thanks George, Gotta love those rules!!!!!! I have saved it and will be sure to pass it on to my friends.

Disregard multiple post

Hey George Where did you find this picture, I like it so much I posted it on my "facebook" page. I think it would make a great birthday or anniversary gift. Bruce

He was my CO in the 62nd in '84. Don't remember when he left.

I also have been having problems. Something about the the server being busy or insufficient capacity. It is a "message 503". Bruce

Casey, That is awesome.

Great news, my congratulations as well.

I think that sounds good also. Makes me sick to hear about this.

Congratulations on both!!!!

Thanks Casey, This looks great! I'm not sure about patch changes. I don't know if the 1st. SOS wore the PACAF patch, someone else is going to have to checkin with a response for that. I'm resending my picture via email. Bruce

Hi Casey, Great Job, the two things I saw that might be changed were removing the forward top antenna where the IFR slipway should be and adding the 2 pods under the external tanks. If you still have the copy of the picture you adjusted for my avatar it might be of some help. I can resend the picture via email if needed. Thanks, Bruce Also forgot we had longwire HF antennas.

Hi Casey, Could you do one of the MC-130E with the regular radome. (i.e. 1st. SOS acft. 0564 or 0565) Thanks, I crewed the Blackbirds at Kadena back in the late 70's with Steve Booe. Bruce

Well said NATOPS1. I think your statement sums it up quite nicely.

Hi Jake, Yes, I was there with George. I enjoyed working with him, missed both he and Scott Betts when they did not return for the second time in '89. Bruce

As a C/C I was engine run qualified on the C-130 at Hickam and Eglin, I was never able to taxi. But while TDY to VXE-6 as a Flight Engineer in the late 80's, I was both engine run and taxi qualified. You got love how the Navy empowers their FE's. Maybe Vic Potts or someone from the Navy will chime in their FE responsibilities.

Great post! But oh so true.

Tiny, Let me add my wishes for a speedy recovery as well. Glad to hear that the surgery was a success. Bruce

Casey, Thanks for the update.

I'm not sure about Prescott, I'm pretty sure one of our members "Steve 1300" was or is working for Tepper in Crestview. Steve if you are out there how about an update?

I will be at the West Hawaii Veteran's Cemetery on the "Big Island" of Hawaii with my Boy Scout Troop doing our part to Honor those who gave their all. May they rest in peace, Bruce Soto, TSgt, USAF Retired Scoutmaster Boy Scout Troop 79

Hat's off to you Casey. A well deserved promotion, keep up the good work.

I could be wrong about the c/b being pulled that was a long time ago.

I believe this a true story. It happened when they were on rote on a Turkey Trot mission. I think the accident report listed the cause as a lightning strike. I also heard that this crash was caused by a missile. I'm sure someone will give you the straight scoop. It's been long time so I might be wrong.
