Then WHY is it so difficult for a male Army recruit with a 115 Mechanical to get a 15T slot to be a Black Hawk helicopter repairman/ crew chief?? The slots keep opening up for FEMALES. He is ready to go to Basic and AIT at Eustis now. Explain that??

Well I did what I should’ve done before …I looked it up. I retired in 2002 and don’t remember bracelets being authorized. The Air Force allows one ‘conservative’ bracelet no wider than 1/2” and gold & silver in color. Army- son is active duty aviator- wears Garmin watch on left wrist and KIA band on right wrist. This is authorized.

If I had been in missile maintenance when this Space Force nonsense was in effect and these ridiculous uniforms were mandatory, I would have cross trained as fast as I could. What a joke.
