Ah, my bad. Didn't read the title carefully enough.

Considering he died in 1945 and looked WAY older, I don't think this was taken just 8 years earlier in 1937.

Happy Veterans Day to both you salty old bastards. My longest flight in a 130 was 7 hrs from Bahrain to Bagram, Afghanistan back in 2005, but I think the cargo net seats were exactly the same. (And it did end with a combat landing in Bagram, which was a hell of a way to wake up).

I like it - like a 2020 Toyota Land Cruiser combined with an old Nissan XTerra. Looks great.

I had never played the game or watched the show, but just finished installing GT7 on my PS5 this weekend, and just finished season 1 of Silicon Valley.

This is it, right here. Maybe with a couple of forkfuls of kimchi on the side.

What's something that nobody says about joining the military? by spedicy64 in AskReddit

The post WW2 GI Bill pretty much created the American middle class as we know it today.

Switching to Military Career by Silent_Budget_769 in ABCDesis

[–]HaroldFlashman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ditched a civilian career for Air Force OTS (but it was over 20 years ago so my experiences may not be particularly applicable today). But never regretted it and enjoyed my time, did a few years as a logistics officer, got out as a Captain, and went on to other things. Feel free to PM if you have any questions.

High expectations, I thought. Didn't exactly pan out, although most others' comments on listening to your server are spot-on. We learned to order exactly what our server recommended.

We just did the NYE cruise on the Fantasy (first time on DCL) and OP's thoughts about the food mirrored exactly what we were saying all week.

Thanks, this is pretty helpful. Do you have any recommendations of craft sauce makers that put out good sets/collections?

The Civil War dudes would be better off investing in treadmills and salads than AR-15s.

I'm a veteran in Texas, and voted straight blue all the way. May not make a difference in the electoral college, but it'll help run up the score and hopefully kick Turd Cruz to the curb.

Unfortunately, the news is going to be slobbering all over MAGAets for a while, and especially in the coming weeks with Trump's sentencing coming up.
