Just an update on my oldest. He has finished up UPT at Laughing AFB, Tx and is currently training on flying C-130J's in Little Rock AFB, Ark. He will report to Ramstien AB in Germany in September. He is enjoying it and loves the C-130 mission. That's awesome. I will always wish I had been in the Air Force.
If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14

I don't mind buying those boys jet fuel. A lot better spent than wasting it on food stamps. X2 Congrats to you both SimpleMan.

I have one of when Toby Keith came to Bargram in 09... We got motored during it they took him off got him in an IBA and after 10 mins or so he came back out looked at all of us and said if y'all aint wearing it neither am I!!!! LOL I was at Liberty base in Baghdad for some CIED training when Toby Keith came there. My buddy and I decided to go watch, and sure as hell about 40 minutes into the concert, here comes mortars. After the all clear was given, Toby came back on stage and said, "F#@! those guys, lets have a concert." Every body there hooted and clapped and he got back to business. Was pretty cool.

It was really awsome...the last time we were able to make a beach trip, we went to mexico beach. Those 22's making approaches to tyndall were so low, you could see the pilots faces. We could hear them way offshore doing dogfights (maybe?)...and see the contrails while they were out there. I didn't even think that jets had dogfights anymore. I thought they could shoot other jets out of the sky from over the horizon...

They can, but they still practice. Vietnam taught them a lesson about putting aside dogfighting technique, that's how the Top Gun schools came to be.

That's a cool story. Speaks highly of Toby Keith too. Thank you for your service.

Not to derail but ... I grew up in Fort Worth TX during the Vietnam war. We lived less than a mile from Carswell AFB which was a SAC base at that time. KC-135's and B-52's were rolling around the clock. Anyway, one day a KC failed on liftoff, you wanna talk about something that will wake the dead, dang I can still remember it and I was like 10 years old at the time. It felt like we had been nuked ...
I don't want to pass quietly into the night. I want to slide in sideways kickin and screamin Life really is awesome ... Soak it up while you can ...

I got a chance to work on the emergency rescue trucks on the flight line at Eglin and just to see and hear one start up would make your hair stand up but when they took off nothing but chill bumps and adrealin. then you wonder why any dumb arse country would want to mess with that?
Live like you are dieing!!!
Let me live till i'm too old to die young.
