LtCol J. Krusinski posted:The Ogden logistics center is a GO position, plus there’s COCOM J4/5 billets, SAF A4/5 billets, and of course, JCS billets. There are MX GO’s but there’s not a ton of them. You’ll never see that MX badge on a 4 star, though. Maybe 3 star, definitely 2 and 1 star though. I feel that way about Texas A&M/ Citidel grads. Prior E / Academy can be hit or miss.

 High retention across the force, coupled with glut of GWOT SNCOs holding on until they hit 20, makes the AF decide to keep more airmen at their current ranks. The argument for this is to rebalance the force. The failure to recruit to the authorized numbers, slow/no promotions at the middle grade, and the aforementioned glut of GWOT SNCOs retiring makes me think there will be 2013 manning issues again next year. Buy stock in Lockmart I guess?

Hotel Kpro posted:It could I guess. There was some content posted in the forums a while back from some alternate account of someone who got banned, but I grabbed a lot of it and slapped together a third edition. I'm in no position to get another print going right now since I'm in the middle of moving. A few months down the road I could probably get one going

I just don't know if 40k a year pension is worth this bullshit. 10 years ago that was a life changing amoun of money. Now it's less than the difference in what my spouse could make if we focus on her career. Edit- https://nypost.com/2023/01/28/us-air-force-gen-mike-minihan-predicts-china-war-in-2025/amp/ lol and this doesn't help in the risk reward calculus.

BadOptics posted:You see less of Teller in Top Gun 2 than you see in Devotion; though I thought both movies were pretty good (for what they are). Either Eagle Eye or Transformers. Terminator 3 if you don't count them. Any time an AI gains sentience and destroys the world, it's AF.

If Im reading that report correctly the AF had a pretty dramatic reduction since 2019. That's ~30 lives saved.

https://www.airforcetimes.com/news/your-air-force/2023/06/05/air-force-aviators-could-nab-50k-each-year-by-staying-in-uniform/ I get it but....it is kind of wild to think of this in absolute terms. $50k a year is what, an A1C's paycheck including BAH? Officers getting an A1C's paycheck as a bonus, what a time to be alive.

Pilots getting scrouge McDuck bonuses while 5 out of 6 SrA not getting promoted probably makes sense on paper but it just seems, wrong.
