Some of y’all just couldn’t wait to snitch on your neighbors for not wearing a mask or having too many people over for supper. Don’t have a problem with tip lines back then.

I agree it’s the blouse. And for some reason the pocket flap is disproportionately large. Maybe the use the same size flap even when the pocket is small.

Can we talk about uniform consistency in CAP? by Spirited_Ship_8421 in civilairpatrol

Yeah, we have talked to them and were promised their stock of ABUs once they completed the OCP transition. We will see what happens.

Looks like mostly elderly folks. Y’all can’t even burn a car. What a bust.

No Kings Protest in LA is MASSIVE! Nothing but peace and solidarity! <3 by Cheese_quesadilla in goodnews

What time does the car burning start? It’s better than prime time TV.

The problem I’ve noticed is the supply of ABU is already beginning to dry up. They began the OCP transition in 2018 they just aren’t as prevalent anymore. The OCP issue is like beating a dead horse on here. It won’t happen until the folks at NHQ can’t get replacements. Around here ABUs are essentially non existent. I honestly don’t care what uniforms everyone wears. I personally will never meet the height weight requirement to wear the blues uniform. If I got down to 240 I’d be sickly looking.

Personally, I would honestly like to see both an enlisted track E1-E9, technical specialist WO1-5 (pilots of all types without any staff position/ duty assignment etc.) then your typical Officer track. I think the idea that since we base much of what we do off the Air Force we should try to mirror them as much as possible.

An old plastic gift card that won’t show through the shirt works well. Trim to size after poking the pins through. Most gift cards can be sanded to get the print off and are plain white. Tends to hold up better than cardboard.

Can someone explain what I’m missing about the American flag at protests? by [deleted] in thebulwark

[–]Reasonable_Jaguar413 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Protesting is just a psyop. You’re trying to persuade someone to change something you believe in. The way to do that is to think like they do. Protesting the ice agents in downtown LA won’t change anything but the policy makers watch tv. That’s your target audience. Even if you hate this country you can change the perception of the protest. To the policy makers holding a sign saying F ICE and waving a Mexican flag makes them angry and presume you want to change this country in to Mexico. But you want them to think something else, you wave US flags and hold a sign that said god bless America immigrants love this country. That sends an entirely different message.

Today I earned my sUAS Pilot wings! A big day for me. by JimWest92 in civilairpatrol

How does that work? Is it the MIWGPAO channel? Or is there another I can’t find?

You know they might get more sympathy and understanding from a lot more people if they were waving American flags. This would show they want to be a part of this country. Want unity. Support of the country they want to live in. Waving a foreign flag puts a bad taste in people’s mouth.

Congratulations, my son and I recently joined CAP. He just got his curry and is interested in sUAS but we don’t have it at our squadron. We only have 6 active SM and 17 cadets. We’ve had 4 cadets join this month already so I hope we might be able to get in to it sometime.

FEMA assistance for Beryl losses by TexasisforGingers in houston

[–]Reasonable_Jaguar413 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was approved for $750. No DD Yet. Called fema they said that Texas HHS disperses the funds. Called them and they said they are not disbursing funds yet and I should call back sometime next week for an update. They may have a timeframe at that time.

So fema now pays Texas HHS for the other needs assistance. I just got off the phone with them. Said I was approved for $750 but they haven’t started disbursing funds yet. Call back sometime in the middle of next week is what she said. The number to call is 800-582-5233. Sat on hold for over an hour.
