I guess no one else noticed this statement in the Wisconsin link in one of the first few posts... http://www.revenue.wi.gov/faqs/pcs/military.html Under #3 The federal Military Spouses Residency Relief Act, signed into law on Veterans Day 2009, allows a military service member's spouse...

I don't disagree! Just saying what appears to be happening.... PJ

"Bruce Latta told the academy's Board of Visitors on Monday that members of Congress nominated more than 6,600 students interested in attending the school." An easy way to do this is to encourage the Nom sources to coordinate so that each candidate is only given one nomination. I know for a...

I think I heard he was PQ when he entered as a Plebe then grew 10 or 12 inches while there making him NPQ for most or all line officer jobs, then spent most or all his Active Duty training for the '88(?) Olympics. I think I heard he went to Navy Supply School during his 2-years on active duty as...

Magothy Seafood For fresh crabs try a local's hangout called Magothy Seafood. About 15 min N. over the Severn River bridge by car. Use a Garmin or iPhone w/gps or you won't find it! My wife's family went there for over 20 years until they left the area. PJ

From the WebGuy forum After lurking for awhile I thought I would paste some info from a thread called "COLORADO DRIVERS LICENSE" on the WebGuy forum. I'd like to give credit to Kim who spoke to USAA to get the straight scoop. Cadet property insurance is also covered: Very confusing here so I...

A schedule I read (on the CO Parents Club website) showed 7 August as a DDO. Hopefully, the Basics will know sometime before that! From this website: http://www.usafacpc.org/admin/cal/curcalendar.php Saturday Aug. 7th, 2010 Doolie Day "Out" This will be the first time that the...

Thanks! I re-read the instructions and the money orders were for if you were buying them at the orientation. :redface: PJ

It's the Saturday before I-day and still no letter from AFA stating what amount to put on the money order for boots. The instructions to appointees said to expect a letter with this amount sometime before I-day due to fluctuating prices. Has anyone seen this letter yet and have an amount for the...

Found this: "The first evidence that the shaft of the gray, granite, obelisk-shaped monument was greased to make the climb more difficult appears in the Lucky Bag yearbook of the class of 1952. Their climb took place following the graduation ceremony held on June 3, 1949. Grease was not used...

When is the pool renovation supposed to be done? I thought it wouldn't be done in time for BCT. Any insight?

An Alternative Herndon Proposal I seem to remember reading about the history of Herndon climb once and noting that, in the initial years of this tradition, the monument was not greased. Greasing started in later years. (Maybe someone can research when it actually started). If they want to use...

As someone who works under FAA rules I can understand their point, but, as the community matures and grows, I can see the military invoking MARSA (Military Assumes Responsibility for Separation of Aircraft) and having pilot rated supervisors overseeing the UAS/UAV controllers. PJ

Pima, If you read your posts to me you come across as condescending. Something I have noted occasionally in other threads you've chosen to post in. (And no I won't give examples. That would require waaay too much effort.) I would ask that if you don't have relevant information that I've...

Wow! I had no idea we were doing that I'll have to Google it! :wow: PJ

Pima, No offense, but the title of this thread led me to believe that I was going to learn some things about the Air Force that I don't yet know! I obviously know a little more about the Navy than the other services. It is not my intent to map out a grand career plan for son or anyone else...

Seems that UAS/UAV operator would qualify as expertise in a very narrow field, but I guess it comes down to service culture and history. I'm not even sure if the Navy or Marines still have WO's. Knew a few back in the early to mid 80's though! PJ USNA '82

Why Not use Warrants? While there will always be some need for officers/pilots in the UAV/UAS community, maybe someone can tell me why the AF uses multi-million $'s to train UPT grads instead of making use of existing Warrant Officer ranks on the books to put highly qualified Enlisted...
