“If it Bleeds, it leads”???

[castlebrew]

Motion Seconded. On all counts.

[Usagi_yo]

we’re going to need a Military sized enema to get rid of these morans when Obama is gone.

Rule #1. Military is not a good place for social engineers and feel good wansy pansies.

Spread the rumor. Save the names of people who come up with stupid things like this and demand their release from Active Duty.

[JSDude1]

Rules, unnecessary rules of engagement (oh and social engineering), as well as politicized military leadership in the Pentagon and Admin.

[Rembrandt]

“.. in this country, we have Air force Generals that has never flown a plane, and Naval Admirals that has never commanded a ship. All of them are POLITICAL APPOINTEES. OBAMA has forced all our fighting generals to retire, and all our fighting admirals to do the same.”

It’s worse than that. He cleaned out the military all the way down to Majors, getting rid of any and all with those hangy down things I guess.

[SteveH]

Deborah James will be recorded in history as a clueless idiot (almost used a sexist word there lol) who destroyed a fine organization.

[Mark17]

I’m sure there will be a sentence added to the end of every APR. Airman So and So supports diversity.” What a crock.

I hated writing APRs, but I am glad I retired when I did. I can't take this PC garbage.

[Jimmy Valentine]

How about instead of diversity we concentrate on the most capable. This is one more thing that will get a whole bunch of our people killed

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

This is so gay.

[Smokin' Joe]

All I can think of it the reaction the 80000 men who died over Europe in WWII would have to this...for starters.

[gingerbread]

Nope, the surviving “FIGHTING GENERALS” were in the Pacific coast of Russia. Any “FIGHTING GENERAL” that were in the European side of Russia was eliminated. That was how Zukov survived the military purge.

[Amagi]

No longer a meritocracy.

[tanknetter]

that is, a standing height of 64 to 77 inches and a sitting height of 34 to 40 inches

Um, aren't these restrictions in place due to the limitations of EJECTION SEATS????

A chair with a BIG rocket motor on the bottom used to rapidly exit an aircraft that's in-flight and moving hundreds of miles an hour isn't the type of thing that "checks its privilege" between the time the handle is pulled and the pilot is moving upwards at a very high rate of acceleration/substantial g-forces.

This is guaranteed to get people killed. A disproportionate number of those people will be women.

What Constitution? The voters said to hell with the Constitution in 2008, Give us a muslim. In 2012, they reaffirmed their choice.

[hattend]

So glad I retired

[sport]

Not me. The purging of the military is going on at this moment. Ditto the civilian authorities.

[wita]

Already 76 comments, I’m not going to read before posting.

Pure and simple this equals potentially more women in combat by increasing the female pool for pilots. Frankly Scarlett if I was Secdef I’d have her ass canned. This is more obamaism on display.

...and I’m sure the sec def is probably unable to can the Sec of the AF as they are both appointed by the unnamed occupant of the White House.

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

I(n the interest of true diversity, why can’t all F-16 parts be installed in other aircraft? Of course reality is the biggest hurdle but why discriminate? Along this line I won’t even get into why F-117 panels can fit other birds as it’s racist.

[Redleg Duke]

I am retiring from work as a contractor at an Air Force base in four weeks. This diversity merde is a major reason why!

I am sick of watching females and minorities getting awards for breathing, while white, straight males get ignored or punished.

The damage being done by this administration cannot be understated!

[gundog]

Imagine my surprise when I read my APRs and found out what a big proponent of POMO I was.
