This and a dozen or so being investigated for drug use.

Huge impact to the nuke force.

Active Duty ping.

“Never let a crisis go to waste”

GayMuzzie will USE this as premise to unilaterally discard America’s nuclear capability shortly before leaving office.

HE IS LAYING THE GROUNDWORK, HERE.

Just wait —maybe a year, year and a half before leaving office.

His goal is to MAKE THE WORLD FAIR by taking America down a peg or ten.

Let’s see.

You have to take a test once a month.

Anything less than 90 is a fail. And then you get booted.

100 is basically a pass.

You work 24 hours/day with the same small team of fellow officers.

What did the Air Force THINK would happen???

He's going to say something like:

"This is a troubled organization that is costly to maintain. I have said numerous times before that I will not rest until using saving maximal WASTED funds to invigorate infrastructure and the middle class, and this measure will help global stability..."

And then he'll use his PEN to do away with US nukes.

JUST LIKE THAT.

He's going to USE this.

Every last one of the Officers that cheated should be canned - dismissed from the Air Force. They swore an oath and broke it.

I’m not totally surprised by this. When I was at AF Squadron Officer School in the late 80s, I was surprised when a number of officers started to openly cheat during a test. When asked about it later, they simply said: “cooperate and graduate”. Never forgot that.

I know there are a couple on this forum that know about these tests. So my question is, how much has the testing material been tampered with since the dear leader and his cronies have taken office? I am not saying 92 didn’t skirt the rules, but we seem to auto-magically assume these tests aren’t becoming ludicrous. Furthermore, just how much do the criteria that define being proficient change from month to month. I can’t see the U.S. changing policy that quickly. Again, I hope the couple posters I saw here previously show up again to explain..

Many more will be “implicated” until the kenyan/Soros’s people are in firm control of America’s nuclear armaments.

Give the missile force to the Army. Pilots control the Air Force (rightly so), so being in the missile force probably makes you a second class citizen in the Air Force. It would just be another branch in the Army.

Exactly, gaijin. This is nothing more than a tempest in a teapot. This is WAY overblown and detrimental to morale.

Welcome to the Reduction In Force (RIF). Everything gets crazy.

...”cooperate and graduate”. Yes, plus I can’t count how many times I heard during my Army stint(s), “you have to go along to get along”. True, up to a point. Looks like that “point” was reached and then some.

I was on Missile Combat Crew for a total of ten years. Six in Titan II and four in Minuteman. These EWO tests are not political in nature, they are technical tests to show you can proficiently process, decode, and execute the encrypted messages that are received down in the capsules. These messages could be anything up to and including launch messages.

There always were scenarios given within these tests that could trip a person up but they were not political in nature but technical and procedural.

This was just plain old cheating and extremely terrible cheating at that. I read a post earlier that these people should be kicked out of the Air Force but, depending on the type of information passed via unsecured cell phones, many of them should end up in Leavenworth.

I know it sounds as if I am dancing around and not giving solid answers but this is EWO and I cannot divulge what actually goes on or the contents. It would be just as bad as those men.

This is one of the things I like about F/R; responses from people in the know.

The cheating on these tests coupled with possible drug use sounds like there is a serious problem.
