North Korean Nuke Test

CRM is part of the Natops eval :)

it's just good headwork.

Exactly. I had an ARP "training" session where we had to take a recce test of East Asian surface vessels and subs. We were deploying to S. America. Brilliant. When asked if we could collaborate, we were told in an absolute fashion "NO!" because you might have to decide if you need to shoot a hellfire at the "unknown" vessel in a split second (riiiiiight). My response: "So I can't utilize my co-pilot?" Lots of sputtering and such w/ no real answer other than to take the test and not cheat.
 
How ??? 'Cause we really didn't believe it nor operate by it ... it was just a "joke" ... to try and sound "tough" and GAF .... :)

Well unfortunately, I've known fellow officers for who it wasn't a joke. Which is a good reason why I'm glad I'm not still serving.

Quickly after learing the code of honor I learned that we elaborate, collaborate and borrow. Whoop brutha.

Yeah, honor code? Welcome to the real world. The military isn't some kind of moralistic Utopia, despite what they might tell you at the service academies.

BTW, the Democrats are blaming... you guessed it.... Bush for NK's alleged test (or non-test?).

Who else are they going to blame? Haven' you heard the President is the Devil, 'cause Bobby Bouche's momma said so. Their arguement has that much validity.
