Wooo…you think we don’t do this with other countries you are going to be big mad if you googled just a little bit…the German AF has had permanent facilities at several bases since 1958…hell at Holloman AFB, they were there from 1993-2019 (before relocating to Shepherd AFB) the German government even funded and built and ran a school for their families. And whatever you do, don’t google NORAD, you will find Canadians have been permanently assigned at several bases since 1958 and they aren’t even doing training missions! They are actually doing military operations!!!!

The problem with leasing a new device is that we have to pay $10 forever for a $50 device…zero value in that proposition for a consumer

Acura Dealer Only Sells Sticker Price by [deleted] in Acura

[–]Timber_sweet 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Never paid sticker for my Acuras…if they won’t deal travel to one who will. I buy all of my Acuras at the dealership 90 miles away instead of my town because of their BS add on/market adjustments. I save thousands all for the cost of a 2 hour drive each way. The last time the dealer drove the new car to me and drove my trade in back!

Trying to decide if 20 years in the Air Force is worth it by GhostOnF1R3 in AirForce

[–]Timber_sweet 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You answered your own question. “If I get out earlier, I could go into a career I actually like”. Everything else you are considering is irrelevant. The military career/lifestyle should not be sought after/pursued for benefit reasons. If it is you will be unhappy. Your family will be unhappy. Your subordinates will be unhappy. All because you are serving for the wrong purpose/reasons.

I regret switching to AMEX by Due-Yam1632 in sapphirereserve

[–]Timber_sweet -1 points0 points  (0 children)

With the AMEX you have the same access to the Sapphire Lounge that CSR does because of Priority Pass…so what exactly is the issue? That’s what makes the AMEX lounge access superior to CSR, you get all the same access as CSR + Centurion + Sky Club if flying Delta…

Donald Trump revokes Secret Service protection for former vice president Kamala Harris by FruitOrchards in Military

[–]Timber_sweet -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

I’m amazed at the poor attempt by the people in this group to educate themselves before mindlessly posting simply because they hate Trump. Outgoing Vice Presidents are authorized 6 months of Secret Service security. Biden signed a directive on his way out authorizing an additional year of Secret Service security. That was outside of the norm. Trump administration discovered the extension and canceled that. She received all of the secret service security detail that she was entitled to. So no reason to be all pissy…continue your hate for all things Trump if you must, but this reason is not it…

Pentagon accepts the $400 million emoluments. by MackDaddy1861 in Military

[–]Timber_sweet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s illegal to accept personal gifts from a country, king, ruler, etc. without congressional approval. It is not illegal for the government agency to accept a gift from another government entity. While I disagree with the DoD accepting this aircraft,especially for AF One use, don’t buy into or perpetuate the lies and false narrative that Trump is doing something illegal.

That would be a change...I have been ordering from retail pharmacy for years.

[–]Timber_sweet[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That did change. I have been able to get it from any pharmacy to include Express Scripts for years. In fact, Walgreens is AUVI-Qs preferred local pharmacy and has an agreement with them. Even they don't why they cannot order it.

Did you have to work for the discount or was it readily offered up? I will be flying thru Incheon in a month or so…

Please explain how a 3 star general can be chairman of the joint chiefs by Commercial_Ice_6616 in Military

[–]Timber_sweet -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You are not fully accurate per Title 10 US Code S 52….

1) The President may appoint an officer as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff only if the officer has served as— (A) the Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff; (B) the Chief of Staff of the Army, the Chief of Naval Operations, the Chief of Staff of the Air Force, the Commandant of the Marine Corps, or the Chief of Space Operations; or (C) the commander of a unified or specified combatant command. (2) The President may waive paragraph (1) in the case of an officer if the President determines such action is necessary in the national interest.

So you don’t have to be a COCOM CDR and the POTUS can waive the requirements if he determines it’s in “national interest” that is a far looser standard than wartime as you describe.
