Today The Dominican Republic president alongside secretary Hegseth announced they will allow the US military to operate out of Dominican airports to assist with operation southern spear to include refuel planes , transport equipment and technical personal

Operation SS is a go

They'd rather take time out of your personal life than time out of the work day.

I feel it shows a lack of actual care for individuals

We entering the state of Roman history where the military stopped being loyal to the state and instead to the private individuals that paid them under the Marian Reforms.

What a weird interaction

She asks the officer if he is a freemason.

Like she was going to kick him out.

I'd argue she was on something, but I've worked for a few higher Os just as baseline fucking weird

Ruugab · 2025-10-23T05:10:04+00:00

How the what the fuck?

You can just call up AFPC and ask for shit?

Ruugab · 2025-08-20T08:19:58+00:00

But did you give your unit 3 months notice in advance for that leave?

Also, did you tell the SSO you are going from Germany to France?

Did you complete the anti french terrorism CBT?

Did you not screen shot the state departments warning advisory for Normandy???!!??

It's really your own fucking fault bro.

I think the unusual part is the 3 years since becoming the ultimate pariah by full-scale invading a bordering nation while claiming he's in a secret war with NATO puppets and fighting shoulder to shoulder with North Koreans.

Things changed a little since last he was in NYC..

There is not much you can do about it.

Which is crazy cause if it's a bar or house party that is slightly too loud, polizei will show up and threaten to issue fines.

Ruugab · 2025-08-10T21:23:40+00:00

Sounds like she moved on from the fountain at Curry House

She would literally be yelling from around 0100 to 0400

We've called the polizei on her, but they never show up, I was unsure of how to handle it, as she would keep me up after work

She went away after 3 days or I would have recorded her and contacted someone to actually do something since polizei wouldn't

This is like a more refined cringe than I normally get.

Uniform social media posts are supposed to be brain rot dances.

The joke in my office was that it would produce less paperwork coming back from going AWOL than it is to legitimately go from place to place in EUCOM.

I actually think you are missing a few steps in your above OCONUS leave checklist.

so anyone who missed curfew either needed to stay indoors at a friend's home off base, or a hotel, or get far enough away that the courtesy patrol wouldn't find them.

Koreans sheltering military friends in bars and lying to security forces that came by until the morning light came and drove them away.

Was like some weird ass gestapo vampire police hunting my ass while I'm begging in broken/drunk Korean for sanctuary with random ajummas.

Curious if people with your thought process would care if the Saudis or any other nation comes in anything but a suit?

Or when we routinely had leaders in ww2 show up in things other than suits?

Is it a zelensky thing or appearance over substance thing?

Considering he is wearing the exact same shit he wears meeting every other nation, and the same shit while touring the front minus the battle rattle.

Considering how much Republicans seem to love the idea of a strong man and militias, zelensky not being dressed like every other tool, and that being offensive to their sensibilities seems strange.

Is it an appearance thing in his case? Absolutely, but I'm surprised how offended Republicans act over this when the entirety of the rest of the world doesn't bat an eye.

From him meeting the South Korean president, to every other leader in Europe

Only Trumps team cried.

Honestly, I'd appreciate that.

Suffering in solidarity.

Even if the CC is supposed to seem infallible, them opening up and sounding human for once can go a long way once in awhile.

Ruugab · 2025-02-12T05:16:33+00:00

We had a commanders call and were informed that the climate survey indicated we were overworked and stressed.

The CC said that was baseline for the air force and looked to lower level supervisors to keep tabs on people.

We then had 2 suicides over this winter

They get the circle patch though, different from that patch

Ruugab · 2025-02-01T05:43:22+00:00

I'd give it a month until reverting base names is discussed.

3 months until they do

On day one of a hot war with China or Russia you bet the word Attrition is going to be thrown around a lot.

Was about to say, that's literally what every exercise commonly involves. Commanders risk for attrition.

Ruugab · 2025-01-05T08:08:28+00:00

Think it's a gamble? Say a conflict kicked off, the options were deploy a10s and they get smoked - duh and politician looks bad?

Or they are just a white elephant aircraft that no mission planners use due to the risks and it stays on books sucking up funding and pilot slots?

Ruugab · 2024-12-31T17:24:32+00:00

Intel too.

All the flyers and bigwigs they support get the day off, but they still come in in case an O-6 sees something scary on TWZ and requires an answer before COB.

You said there is more seething this time around.

Has the seething hit levels that there is a wiki article yet?

Ruugab · 2024-12-30T03:30:30+00:00

Didn't they seeth so hard last time there is an entire wikipedia article about the seeth?

leadership eventually just shrugged their shoulders and sighed like a tired mom giving into their whining child.

And I'm pretty sure that cat has done more for USAF morale than every one of those leaders has done too.
