    Wow, AFA Losing Cadets!

    It isn't your place? Then who's place is it? Certainly the kid should step up first. But go ahead, stand by and watch, Both my grandfathers, my father, myself, all 3 of my son's on ad with 2 cb tours among them will stand up for you.

    Well said Christcorp. Unfortunately, I tend to be the burr under the saddle and less the statesman you are. :)

    Wow, AFA Losing Cadets!

    1. I did not assume--you stated that there would be no point, which I read as I quit because it was hard. 2. Evidence means names dates and actions. Certainly for opsec in general and protection of your DS in particular these facts should not be openly listed. However, claims to have this...

    Wow, AFA Losing Cadets!

    As to point one- I do not quit--EVER-- when it comes to the needs of my children. Your speed at giving up is incomprehensible to me. point 2- Still waiting for evidence. In 35 years I have seen many many scandals. The difference is they were all addressed not just whined about. I...

    Wow, AFA Losing Cadets!

    If their are cadets actively abusing their position power and tarnishing the Academy and harming individuals then action should be taken. Talking about it serves little value once the issue has been identified. I have seen no requests for help in how to address alleged misconduct. And for 15...

    Wow, AFA Losing Cadets!

    Because I am a grad and a parent. And in both capacities I promise, I would be spending more time talking to people at the Academy than stroking my ego here if I had any proof of misconduct. I simply asked what action they have taken? I did not call names. I did not accuse of being a liar. I...

    Freda'smom, what corrective action have you taken? You claim your knowledge of this hazing comes from the culprits. You claim to be a parent. Yet the only concern I see is that you make your point and convince this audience. You might have a valid point. You have yet to garner any credibility.

    Question about cadet life

    The only scenario I can see that would bring grief to you is if you publicly exhorted your beliefs in such a way the USAF might be considered represented by them. ie: talking to a reporter in uniform or emphasizing your affiliation to the military in an interview about your personal beliefs.

    Wow, AFA Losing Cadets!

    My turn lol. As a flyer you learn a decision matrix when in the air and things start to go to uhmmmm-crap. Aviate--Keep it flying. This need trumps all. Navigate--Where am I? Where am I going? Can I land safely there? Easily secondary concerns to aviate. Communicate--Tell people the...

    Personal Computers

    When visiting I met a c3c in Arnold Hall making use of the wyfi on his personal non-issue computer. This isn't convenient for c4c I imagine, but possible.

    Wow, AFA Losing Cadets!

    I do not support hazing for hazings sake or as a right of passage. I am a grad and a parent. Be very careful listening to feedback/venting from your DD/DS. It is the same as when they might have asked why do I have to take this class in hs-I'm never going to need it. They do not have...

    USAFA C4C Flight Chief role?

    "I have no idea. Consider asking your DS and sharing his response. I'm very curious about the answer." I did he's clueless so far lol. Just knows he's it and has a placard under his name by his room door. :) I will pass on info when it reaches me.

    USAFA C4C Flight Chief role?

    In a photo taken by his sponsor today (A Day) my DS put up a plate under his name with the job title "Training Airman". In my day there were no formal jobs for doolies. Is this the same as flight chief?

    BCT ends

    They will have them on A Day. Classes begin on the 6th and phone privileges are squadron specific so there is no way to know if they will be able to keep them. They will be able to use email tho.
