All fighter pilots are busy now. Please stay on the line for the next available combat officer. Do not hang up or you will lose your place in line.

Press the pound key to call in all Marine aviation assets within 100 miles of your location
Shortages were not the only communications problems found during the invasion of Grenada; interoperability was another. For example, uncoordinated use of radio frequencies prevented radio communications between Marines in the north and Army Rangers in the south. As such, interservice communication was prevented, except through offshore relay stations, and kept Marine commanders unaware for too long that Rangers were pinned down without adequate armor. In a second incident, it was reported that one member of the invasion force placed a long distance, commercial telephone call to Fort Bragg, N.C. to obtain C-130 gunship support for his unit which was under fire. His message was relayed via satellite and the gunship responded.
Fielded for the first time in late 2004, the FACE pod is a solution to communication problems often experienced by aircraft in the mountainous regions of Afghanistan.
So, getting some FACE time with our boys has a new and more explosive result?
Sheesh, I feel so pasted up!
Improvise. Adapt. Overcome.
