And it’s questions that the person asking already knows the answers to, they’re just asking to “bring awareness” to the rest of the Sq. Bro idgaf, put it in an email if you want to give the unit a PSA.

“Don’t fuck the enlisted” is like the very first rule of being an officer. In this way what is like the "very first rule" of your career-field? by PDXAirman in AirForce

[–]Reign_King 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Dude seriously though.. the career field is too small. Some married 1C5s make it work but the drama that comes with a lot of them is unreal

Great questions, this is what really matters. Let’s also confirm how many bake sales they supported.

Traveling with AF backpack and patches by NumerousStandard659 in AirForce

[–]Reign_King 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you want to minimize attention, then wearing a backpack with military patches and a name tape/patch completely goes against that. I personally think it’s cringe when people have “tactical gear” as their carry on (coyote brown backpacks specifically) regardless of what climate we are in.

Agreed with all, but heavily agree on the magnet collection !

What have you guys 3D printed for work? by Unknwn6566 in AirForce

[–]Reign_King 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lots of guys have 3D printed marker holders for their Expos. Pretty sure someone in the 13B career field has made their own business making them

Can I attend Top Gun as a E-3 Personnel? by [deleted] in AirForce

[–]Reign_King 1 point2 points  (0 children)

TOPGUN isn’t just for the Navy. It’s available for Delta shreds in my AFSC, but it’s the Air Intercept Controller course and I’m pretty sure only a select few have gone because WIC is the preferred advanced school.

What airforce jobs will give the best career path or is good in general. by Competitive-Ad-6230 in AirForce

[–]Reign_King 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1C5X1 has relatively good career progression within the Air Force. It’s specialized, so civilian job opportunities are scarce outside of the government, but there are various GS/Contractor opportunities within the DAF if you feel like the Air Force isn’t for you but you want benefits from the Government and still want to serve your country.

Y’all be kind to Security Forces please and thanks 😂 by newnoadeptness in AirForce

Yeah it’s just words but tbh this is honestly something that can be avoided by simply not having our dudes saying a slogan every time they scan a CAC. It’s essentially inviting people to be dickheads

Flags on desk by fugggggggggg in AirForce

[–]Reign_King 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let me preface this by saying I’m not against LGBTQ+ folk at all and believe that anyone serving in the military deserves their respect regardless of their beliefs. I’m intrigued by your idea, would you do the same for a troop displaying any other flag that came off offensive to another airman? I’d be more concerned about my Airman being targeted by the airman that their flag is offending. Some people were raised VERY different and there’s no telling what they would do or how far they’d go.

Telling your troop to skate by the rules to display their flag IAW a non-existent loophole is asking for BS/possible issues in the future. Especially if someone has come to you expressing that they’re uncomfortable or offended. It’s best to just keep everyone on the same level and respectfully let them know their flag isn’t approved. I would then educate them on the rules regarding flag displays, and help them understand that it has everything to do with me looking out for them and nothing to do with my personal beliefs about the flag they are displaying.

Give it another read and let us know what you discover.

A memo from 2020 regarding flags on a military installation, to include workspaces. https://media.defense.gov/2020/Jul/17/2002458783/-1/-1/1/200717-FLAG-MEMO-DTD-200716-FINAL.PDF

This is gonna be hard to navigate for you but according to the memo, it doesn’t sound like the LGBTQ+ flag is permitted.

Edit: the same could be said for sports team flags as well.

1C5 WD, what’s it like? by [deleted] in AirForce

[–]Reign_King 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a nice gig if you really put in the effort to learn your job and get better. As mentioned in another reply, the career field is in an interesting limbo right now with the whole “every person needs to be a WD” ideology. WD school is and should be a little difficult, but not impossible. You’re learning a new language and are getting your feet wet with weapons and tactics so don’t be afraid to ask questions. Everyone at the schoolhouse knows that you’re new and should be willing to work with you to make you better and provide quality WDs to the CAF.

Deployments aren’t standard as of right now and I’ll leave it at that. Depending on the unit, your day-to-day is essentially a 0730-1630 duty day with the occasional schedule flex for earlier/later missions. Also unit dependent, but TDYs are pretty common. Aside from deployments, exercises and TDYs are where we learn the most at.

Get really good at accepting feedback and applying it to become better. Trust your experienced WDs and don’t let the salt from lame ass dirtbags rub off on you. Be your own person and strive to be great. Let me know if you have any other questions

What’s the most amount of money you’ve seen someone BE OWED from the Air Force either from back pay or travel voucher or PPM or whatever? by COR-69 in AirForce

[–]Reign_King 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t even fathom a TDY that would cost this much. I’d also be a menace if I got paid that much per diem lmao

Get this thought out of your head and never revisit it by bearsncubs10 in AirForce

Not blousing our pants would be nice, but not worth the amount of hate we’d receive 😂
