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. :)

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...

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...

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...

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.

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.

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...

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.

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...

"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.

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?

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.

Grats to all in class of 2019 and their parents!!!! They marched back from Jacks Valley today. Acceptance Parade is on the 4th but BCT is essentially complete.

The squiggle on the boards is called clouds. As a c3c a thin line is added under the clouds called ground. As a c2c a line is added over called horizon. All 3 together is called a full sky. doolies get clouds cause thats where there head is :). As they progress they become more grounded and...

I know this thread is old but reminded me of my "type III Class A self luminous auto-ranging chronograph". Issued in mid 80's. It looked like a 6 dollar Kmart special but was a great watch.

Didn't expect this thread. I learned to solve the cube in 1981 while at USAFA (i did end up on ac pro that semester). Didn't touch one again until my kids were old enough to become interested. It got out of hand lol. My 2019 appointee competed at the world championships at the age of 11. my...

As A grad I semi ashamedly have to admit that post graduation I didn't always have the time or the energy to give appropriate responses to those who weren't getting it. In response to where did you go to school I've been known to reply--I didn't, but I was institutionalized for 4 years...
