A guy from my Guard CE squadron was in that class too. Kinda nice actually, because I just went through last year, and I won't be the junior LT anymore. Not like it matters anyway, because  Guard

We've got an airshow on our guard base this weekend too, and god drat is the Raptor demo incredible. It almost makes up for putting up with all the bullshit.

Anyone remember the name of the place? I'm heading out there for AT in a few weeks. Also, any recommendations for places to checkout nearby would be cool too.

I was about to get out after my ANG enlistment was up in 2019, but then a CE commissioning slot fell into my lap, so I guess I'll ride it out for the retirement. One weekend a month as a noble is worth the O-4/5 retirement check later on.

From what I've been seeing, OTS classes are filled up for a while. Apparently people who were selected at the most recent boards are getting late 2018/early 2019 class dates. The AF is talking about shortening OTS so they can squeeze more classes per year in So for the dude asking, I'd start the process ASAP, because there's a good chance even if you're selected, it could be 2 years from now until to leave.

Fat_Cow posted:Talked to the recruiter over the phone, and was told "We're 200% backed up as of two months ago, so it would be about two years if you wanted in OTS". Well there goes that idea. How quickly did he spin that into "...but if you enlisted, I could get you out the door in a month!"?

Not that the Air Guard is that bad, but every once in a while I have days where I'm glad I joined. Like today. A few of us got to swing by a gunnery range where SFS was qualifying on their heavier weapons. They had extra ammo, so we got to shoot the M2, 240B, and the 203. At one point, they left me and another Lt unsupervised with two 203's, about a hundred practice rounds, a wide open range, and instructions to "Not do what other CATM guys do and shoot straight up and see if you can dodge the falling round, but have fun." We probably fired 20 rounds trying to get the shots to hit each other in mid-air. It felt like I was loving around at a driving range with a bucket of balls. Our fighter pilot Vice Wing CC even stopped by to fire off a few rounds, and then spent 20 minutes on his hands and knees in the dirt helping pick up brass. I wasn't expecting that. Sidenote: drill weekends have become so much better since I commissioned. A few months ago I got to ride around in an Abrams on the airfield with a tank crew who had permission from the Wing CC to tear up the grass and have some fun.

Knives Amilli posted:17S. Figure since its the Guard and all there will be some more hoops to jump through but got the official email today. Congrats man, being a guard officer is a pretty sweet deal. I just commissioned last year, and most drill weekends involve me doing whatever I feel like under the guise of "getting to know the squadron". That'll probably change when I get some responsibility, but for now, drill is way better than it was when I was enlisted.

I’m sitting down here in a tent city in Puerto Rico surrounded by about 300 soldiers. I️ always knew soldiers were dumbasses, but Jesus Christ. We’re running at reduced water right now because a couple soldiers decided a 3k water bladder looked like a trampoline and put a hole in it.
