Quick one, because it happened recently. C-130s have urinals in the back. C-130Js probably have nice chemical toilets too, but H models don't, they just have basically a urinal and you piss into it. The big question is, where does the piss go once you're done? The answer is that it exits the aircraft through a little valve on the side. Meanwhile the external refueling panel is a yard or two forward and during refueling operations the flight engineer is usually standing there looking at the gauges.

Cue the new loadmaster who knows none of this and takes a leak while we're refueling during a high tailwind. He now gets to do the FE's laundry for the rest of the deployment.

I heard someone use the term "human weapons system" to unironically refer to people in the Air Force multiple times

Fun fact: that person was in my flight.

he was actually an alright dude, just your stereotypical head in the clouds doc that was really smart but didn't do the best job of expressing his ideas in normal-people speak

Another fun fact: we actually physically prevented him from getting up and asking a question during that last "issues panel" or whatever. You're welcome.

Oh man gently caress youuuu I had money riding on that guy standing up and asking one last astonishingly bad question :( we just thought he finally came to his senses! Still if I could have documented that one question he asked to the colonel panel it would be perfect for this thread. "I'll ask again..."

Also soz we couldn't do BBQ, I thought I'd have a lot of free time at maxwell but I ended up busy basically the whole time. Not with class work so much as with getting drunk with my drinking club.

Sextant port? Are you referring to the cigarette smoke and solid food ejection hole?

You could go flightline maintenance and work 12s forever, that would really secure your place in this thread

What's the big deal, anyway? How is this more dangerous than all the other gear he's wearing? Is it considered FOD?

He landed on the dz which automatically makes him better than half those guys

Are we still under the impression that CPR is actually only a short-term fix and a lot of doctors wouldn't want it, or was that just NPR talking

I'll have you know I just read through an AFPC briefing and 11x manning is at 95%. 13B primary duty manning is at 97% and 13B staff manning is at 77% for an overall 13B manning level of 98%. :smug.

it's got too many goddamn colonels because it's an easy box check for "joint tour" and those guys have to come with command staff, so you end up with this

I’m sitting here waiting for a haircut in the bx (because I’m the first idiot in this story) and there is a dude wearing an actual embroidered hoodie celebrating the Trump inauguration. Like who knew there was merch at the inauguration. I automatically assume this dude paid north of $75 for this hoodie.
