O4 List

[Brett327]

I certainly don't have all the answers, but offering someone to stay a permanent O3/O4 as long as they perform (fly, teach, deploy) seems like a logical way to capitalize on that individuals skill set.

Which, in a round about way is what the OP-T DH world looks like it's going to be. The Navy hasn't done a great job of telling these folks what their future holds but a couple of the guys I know in this lot are looking at doing a quasi-permanent RAG instructing gig until they reach retirement.

you could shove a crayon up a lion's ass, but wouldn't you just rather take a butcher's word for it?

TL/DR: automatically labeling guys who color inside the lions as tools...

Nice.

For once I don't have a picture/video/movie quote/witty reference.


Edit:

Well played, sir!

Which would be AWESOME!

Few can clobber a pattern like a RAG P-3. You could do it for a lifetime. Go forth and clobber...

Dude, shut the hell up and get your ass to TW-5.

Build a thousand bridges and you will be an engineer.

Shove one crayon up a lion's ass and you're just another threadjacker...

Websan was so proud of me when I told him I knocked Key West's short field gear out of battery on the second pass down there the other night.

I like to think of it as FCLPs for P-3s...get me a tailhook, bitches. I'm here to fuck shit up.

I'm trying to get to VT 10. I feel like NFOs are less likely to kill me than SNAs.

I wouldn't bank on it....they'll try to kill you in different ways...

I think that's why ICS disconnect was invented.

I made knocking the gear out of battery in the E-2 a sport.. We have to "cushion with power" at the in-close for normal landings and FCLPs above 46,500, (normally a waveoff in close, that touches) And if you just kiss the wire with the main mounts.. BLINK BLINK BLINK goes the gear.

nope.

And for what it's worth, despite the great $, the private world will never produce the true brothers that your military tours will. Enjoy the ride either way.

Truth in this.. I like most of the guys on my crew. I'm not going to hold some valve shut so they can flee if I can get away instead.

Flying, especially as a HAC/CAPC, you'd hold the controls long enough for the other guys to get out before thinking about saving your own ass.
