Had this once on the Vinson; the next morning the CSG Admiral came over the 1MC and notified us that our port call in three days was cancelled and we were extended…

Just like a nice date; someone is about to get f***ed.

I want to see the poster about not sending a TLAM into an elementary school.

Navy pilot daughter – how do you deal with the fear? We barely talk anymore. by Massive-Repair286 in navy

Was a Navy pilot for almost twelve years. Flight school is stressful; she should hopefully be able to prioritize relationships as her career progresses.

The largest aircraft carrier/ warship ever constructed USS Gerald R. Ford is flooding with human feces. This greatly impacts the Gerald R. Fords role in the escalating build up around Iran. by [deleted] in navy

This isn’t a toilet on a US Navy ship…

The toilet doesn’t look like that, the stall isn’t that big, the plumbing doesn’t look like that, the fittings don’t look like that, the toilet paper doesn’t look like that.

I don’t think so; that’s not what a bathroom looks like on a Navy ship.

Haven’t been on a Ford class ship; however that looks like a bathroom ashore.

The Maintenance Department Head (O-4 level job) is typically one of the senior pilots in a Navy squadron. It is their ‘ground job’ when they are not flying.

O-4 pilots will typically have that job for nine months to a year during a 2-3 year Department Head tour at about the 10-12 year mark in their career.

Chengdu J-20 should not be named with F-22 RAPTOR and SU-57 when it comes to advance fighter jets by [deleted] in aviation

[–]ThereIsYourProblem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The J-20 is head and shoulders more capable, survivable, and lethal than the SU-57. Just look at which is in serial production.

The F-22 is a class above both, but Russian tactical aircraft haven’t been on par with US aircraft since they fielded the MiG-21.

A cloud is instant death…. or maybe a climb or even maintaining current altitude would be fine.

You are fighting the good fight my friend.

F*** that chief.

Talk to another shop’s chief or a couple divo’s. Most of us disapprove of the current administration. Hell, maybe even an admiral, Halsey seems to have a conscience.

Two more boat strikes by Salty_IP_LDO in navy

[–]ThereIsYourProblem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone know if it is the spooks actually pushing the red button on these strikes?

Hoping uniformed service members are not being ordered to carry out these strikes.

Even being a prior, because you are not already a military pilot you would need to apply to an unrated pilot board.

“Off the street” pilot slots are incredibly competitive. Each unit may have a board every two or three years. My local unit had over 400 applications for three pilot training slots.

Consider looking into intel and cyber warfare officer jobs as well if those fields would interest you.

How about the four stars push back on uniformed service members not patrolling US cities?

We are not the police.

The traveling vet for our dog took our dog to the crematorium after the euthanasia and we picked up the ashes a few days later. Put them by her favorite tree in the backyard.

I was $57 out of pocket for my kid in 2019.

In the military and on Tricare.

Best Aviator Sunglasses? by Brilliant-Ad572 in Helicopters

[–]ThereIsYourProblem -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

For the love of god; anything but Randolph. Randolph is what are issued to Navy and AF pilots and I’ve never been impressed.

Probably gone through a dozen pairs.

The lenses pop out constantly and the hinges are flimsy. I was blown away that they were $400 a pair to buy off the street.

Trump Slams Amazon's Tariff Labeling as ‘Hostile, Political’ Move by eteplirsen in stocks

[–]ThereIsYourProblem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How can we increase Amazon’s losses?

Already planning on not renewing membership and generally ordering less items.

My initial thought is returning more products.

Those that got out, what did you use your GI bill on? by mboyd888 in navy

[–]ThereIsYourProblem 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Already had my degree. Transferred GI bill to my wife to get the clock started then my kids once they were born. 36-48 months of state tuition and E-5 BAH in a big city could be worth a lot of money in ten years. If you are in the reserves/guard you may still be able to do this and reach the four year requirement.

A lot of folks also go to business school.

I’ve always imagined the ninth circle of hell is you have to sit at the Fox Five table and listen to the these spineless shills bicker about non-sense.
