The Strategic part of the entire system is their attack. Your tactical screen-name explains the preliminary strikes. Your understanding of anything beyond would be fascinating but obviously requires great discretion. Cheers :^)

The people that pay attention are still here. It is not acceptable to mess with SAC or TAC, I don’t give a damn what they call it.

Okay, who’s been peeing in the sink? Four demos...

He said you was into latrines, stickin’ your head down in ‘em and all.

This is a barracks, not a bordello.

That’s the fact, Jack!

I did some training up there. Taught the Air Force how to use an M-60 a long time ago.
They called it Malfunction Junction.

There you go. America is years ahead and idiot in chief is closing the gap. Keep in mind I have over 25 years of all services getting it done. Every service I must adhere to the utmost respect. I never worked so hard in my life to bring these crews together. For a brief moment, I got it. :^)

In the mid-90s...as I was coming to the end of my career...I started to notice this mentality. This anti-AFI concept was sweeping the AF and everyone was encouraged to be “different” and recreate a totally different vision on their base. Then over the past ten years...you added the constant TDYs and deployments...which meant you never got a firm hand on your real job. And finally...junior NCOs began to be forced into the real leadership role that senior NCOs had long held. I was witnessing guys moving up to E8 in fifteen years who simply were book-smart but unable to grasp their entire profession.

This continued nuke inspection problem....isn’t just about the nukes...it’s really about the entire Air Force.

Heh...the weapon that gets carried in more ways than one on road marches. It never gets comfortable. ;-)

I served out at one of those sites while at Malmstrom. (Delta 1)

We certainly had to have everything in order. This was back in the late seventies.

Well, at least it can be said that those weapons systems outlived America.

>”Did you know Scotty Switzer?”

Yep, pretty sure. New a guy by the last name of Switzer that worked the 10th (we got borrowed sometimes). If I remember right, we called him Scot or Scotty. You ever heard of a cop named John Justice? He came from Shemya too. The original rock, he used to say. lol.
