More than ever I am convinced that all combat aircraft should be pilotless. That would reduce the number of cadets to be trained.
My boss is a dude. An idiot as well.
The Air Force used to have dive bomb pilots. Now, they have Muff Divers. Think about it.
Mad Dog Mattis put her there as SecDef.
And I know a kid who was not selected this year who applied the USAFA. Straight A student, bright smart, Christian, great athlete, not a single blemish. From an Air Force family. Got a Presidential nomination. Unfortunately he was white and straight.
Wonder how many EEOC and homos made it in.
The AF Academy has led the political correctness charade of all the academies for years. It is a cesspool of leftist ideology and very similar in American hatred to most civilian universities.
I’ve met some perfectly fine female leaders. That said, there are both a lot fewer of them than men, and a disproportionate number of overly-aggressive women who are promoted into leadership positions without much in the way of actual leadership skills.
There is a strong tendency among women to shortcut or synthesize an appearance of leadership by emulating the worst of male ‘leaders’.
>So is this job now permanently reserved for lesbians?
Not at all. Edmondson is not a lesbian. She has two kids, and a husband, Dave McGowan.
“Sounds like an Obummer appointment. These must all be fired”
Try Mattis, the lifelong “bachelor”.
Military brass loves homos. It gives them a chance to virtue signal support of the progressive agenda to their Democrat paymasters with little skin in the game due to their rank.
My son was a straight A student, bright smart, Christian, great athlete, not a single blemish. From an Air Force family with a Presidential nomination. Is white and straight. Got in and graduated in 2016. So what’s your point?
Indeed it is. But so was appointing an openly gay officer as commandant. Maybe that wasn't such a great move?!
Good for you. The point is that this kid I know should have been there. His seat was filled by a woman, a lesbian, a homo, someone with the right skin color, etc but slightly lower grades, an open homosexual, a wiccan, a marxist, etc.
This kid deserved a seat. And EEOC stole it.
Now that's a ringing endorsement!
It says she was a B-2 pilot so she must have had some aviating skills.
Fly me to the moon...
Edmundson has a husband, not a wife:
” Edmondson had her husband and two kids sitting in the audience”

It depends. The best boss I ever had was a woman. But her predecessor was also a woman and the worst boss I ever had.
Maybe another female CAPTAIN Bligh?

Ping.
He got a Presidential Nomination and still was not accepted? There's something going on there.
