At some point arguing over the differences between flying helos for one service or the other is like arguing between different suburbs. At the end of the day the major differences come down to what type of mayo (hellmans vs best foods vs dukes) you buy at your fancy grocery store and what the local youth soccer fields are like.
It's this kind of partisan wrangling that makes me want to turn to Miracle Whip.

My understanding was the the 68s were a stopgap until the 65s' capability (speed and weapons package) was increased with the C model. Once the 65C was fielded there was no need to keep the 68s.

Not something far more esoteric like Kewpie? Or you could always make your own artisinal mayo out of the eggs your chickens lay.
Can I leave my chickens in your yard? I live in Old Town and they aren't allowed there.

I wish. Mrs. Pags and the HOA both say no livestock. Mrs. Pags also says this prohibition applies to future attempts to rent goats for brush clearing.
What if you refer to them as pet chickens... I mean pet cats commonly bring dead birds and squirrels as a sign of gratitude, why can't pet chickens provide you fresh eggs for the same reason? And so what if you just so happen to eat the pet chickens later on?

How about emotional support chickens?

Why is it so easy for us to get so far off track?

I tried but to avail. The closest chickens get to my house is when they're on the grill. And I'm reminded that the fat dog is there for all my emotional support needs.

Gents,

Has somebody ever met a case of exchange tour for 60' drivers between USN and USCG? 60' Coasties AFAIK are very proud for their sea SAR skills - so have they an opportunity to contribute in Navy CSAR ops? In USAF CSAR?

Thanks
