The Airman who stopped the terrorist attack is being promoted directly to E-5. I thought community service was no longer considered in promotions.

He killed more enemy combatants than 99.9999999% of enlisted airmen in 13 years of war.

This is a good point. They should give him a direct commission to 1Lt and send him into the F-22 pipeline.

He came back to the States on a KC10 into Travis. It was a rotator too so I felt bad about those guys and their families having to wait for the news crews and such to clear out before they were let off the plane.

I'm sure everyone involved was thrilled to tow those jets into place (in such an arrangement that I'm pretty sure violates a bunch of AFIs) and clearing the rest of that ramp, running power, etc.

If nobody's brought up DRMO for fraud, waste and abuse, then there's no way this complaint will fly.

Can anyone outside the squadron read journal entries? I've put some absolutely ridiculous bullshit in everyone's stuff while signing them off on upgrade tasks and was encouraged to keep doing it by the squadron sup.

Today I went to dental and wanted to see how in depth they read that sheet they make you fill out at the beginning. I wrote in "baller status" for my overall health and sure enough they saw it. Doc got a good laugh though. Said it was nice to see some out of the ordinary poo poo.

I would think your UTM as well as anyone in training probably could. The biggest thing would be if it got randomly picked to be looked at during an inspection?

Also, I don't think it's possible to delete them either, at least I can't with work center supervisor roles.

A guy I was TDY with got mad at me for saying the only thing I'd like to see Tops in Blue do was drive their bus off a cliff. Of course he grew up in Yugoslavia while it was falling apart so he probably learned to appreciate things that aren't completely terrible in a way I can't understand.

I suppose Tops in Blue isn't as bad as a potato famine or ethnic cleansing.

In a Shim nutshell, basically.

I mean you might have to know a guy or two (reference the "jewish looking" in your comment) but yeah, Dr. Mo is most definitely able to get you some free (or at least severely discounted) poo poo.

Also they're officially no longer called DRMO, it's now "DLA Disposition Services."

Weapons/2W1 going aways

That's more or less the truth. The book answer is "DRMO for recycling after being demilled" but reality is your average Armament backshop will do the bare minimum required to demil them and then stockpile them for going aways and other appropriate gifts.

On the one hand, it's dumb as poo poo

On the other hand, if we're going to lose our poo poo at this, probably don't want to let everyone know that pretty much every single military musician across every branch comes in at least at E-5 if not E-6....because that's the only way they can convince halfway talented musicians to be stupid enough to enlist (not to mention the direct commission officers where we throw O-3 or higher at guys who graduated bottom of their class in med or law school, Derek Dominoe excepted)

I mean pretty much everything to do with military bands is idiotic (especially within the AF), but watching everyone get all indignant about the four month tech is pretty funny seeing as how that's how things have always been within military music.

\/ Valid point...but the ones pushing this aren't the bands, it's HAF/PA. For some reason they have it in their heads that bands are one of, if not the best, forms of community outreach for the AF. I wish I was making that up. \/

IMO the weirdest thing is that they're bragging about it. It's like the loving band is trolling the rest of the AF intentionally. "Come at us bro. gently caress your planes. What're you gonna do about it?"
