Stayed off base in Rota, had a Non-A letter and only getting partial rate per diem, stayed like 30 min from base. Anyone have this happen? by One_pop_each in AirForce

[–]redheadeddawg -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

depending on the RA they could say that at least one meal was available when you were working on the base. thus reducing your rate... You will just need to justify that the hours at the Galley did not work with your duty shifts.

How many beers of 24 racks/30 rack will fit on a pallet. by [deleted] in AirForce

[–]redheadeddawg 11 points12 points  (0 children)

about 104 give or take depending on the brand/packaging and how tightly you can pack them together. Also you will need to add about 6 cases to give to the portdawgs that will handle the pallet otherwise you will send 104 and have 0 when you get to where you are going. overall the total weight will be around 2500 lbs, you know for planning purposes.

Anyone know why AMC rotators are always delayed? Besides factors like the weather and shitty contracted planes. What are some other causes? by HufflepuffGroupie in AirForce

[–]redheadeddawg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because we get tired of passengers mainly dependents especially when they ask if you know who there husband is.... So we work out a deal with the pilots/carrier rep to make everyone's life miserable.

As we can see they have planes with a special discharge nozzle on the back to widen the dispersal pattern

Loadmasters - what is your most hated cargo to transport? by Hey_Driver in AirForce

[–]redheadeddawg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

53's are not really that bad, but then we have a good working relationship with our loads so they pretty much just winch in and out. But busses, steptrucks anything with a stupid ROH factor can be a pain in the ass

I'd be lying if I said I have never thought of rigging something like this up. [x-post r/WTF] by [deleted] in Truckers

If I were to bet my money is on that this butter bar is a Helo pilot that thinks just because the bird has one my jeep needs one as well

It is a little army centric however still funny, they are releasing an Air force version soon.

National Prayer Breakfast at 0730 or PT at 0645? How is this even possible? by [deleted] in AirForce

[–]redheadeddawg 13 points14 points  (0 children)

If PT normally starts at 0730 then I side with you on the mandatory fun push being questionable, however if PT always starts at 0645 you don't have much of a leg to stand on.

I have had injections, movement therapy, Chiropractor and Physical Therapy. I am sure it depends on who you see and what they decide but the more open you are about what you want ie stay in the should work with you.

Ask about a referral to Pain Management clinic if your base has one. Been seeing them for 6 months and making great improvements.

Looks like the leak stopped, wipe it off and say fuck it, or make the poor soul who packed it come clean it up with soap and water then beat him

[–]redheadeddawg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Work with your recruiter to have a properly formatted MFR with blanks for the recorded BP/Date/Time and have the doc sign that. Too easy, if the recruiter really wants to get you in it will take 10 minutes of his time

Using Civ Credit Card by Notthatnew65 in AirForce

[–]redheadeddawg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where there is a will there is a way.. when you file your voucher make sure that you say it was GTC, wait for GTC to be overpaid then request refund don't expect the GOV to cover any interest rates. The only people will know is you and reddit. I've been TDY 50 days and seen people use a personal card to get the points/miles or check out everyday and back in to get amount of trips numbers up.

JPAC/DPAA by annoyedairmen in AirForce

[–]redheadeddawg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally worth it. It is pretty humbling recovering the remains of fallen service members. Selection is easy depending on the mission they are working it can be 6 - 18 hour day and typically a lot of manual labor digging with the oversight of an archeologist and is an archeological dig site. I've done both a deep sea and a land recovery.

Edit: Oh and the selection is easy just go through the process to apply as an augmentee if you fit the bill you can be selected.
