Hey it's been fun but I don't get to come on here like i used to. Met a lot of great members and butted heads with others. Last couple times it was more head butting instead of being part of the community(been a long while since posting). No regrets and no ill feelings to anyone. Hope all...
The BDU-33 is a practice bomb with a hollow tube that runs the length of the practice bomb. Their is a marking charge placed in the nose for the range to see where it landed. There was a mechanical malfunction and it was inadvertently released as the F-16 turned to head to the range in Kansas...
Going to Bass Pro after the 1st and 2nd wave goes through. Can't pass up some $9.97 blue jeans but other than that I'm gonna be home away from the crazys.
OU is a team with alot of questions and not many answers. Heard on college u this morning from one of the talking heads that Bob Stoops is a favorite for the Florida gig. Not saying he's going just they thought he was a front runner to be invited for the job.
I know what you mean. I was stationed on the island of Crete. NSA Souda Bay had 175 permanent party personnel. I was aviation but my roomate was a seebee and we partied with the black shoes. It was one of my best duty stations.
Yep did work ups and the 1994 cruise. I was with the AirDet. I was assigned to HSL-44 Det 9. Set behind the USS George Wahington CVN-73 and watched the jets break over us while lining up for landing for 6 months.
Yeah every ship I was on we called a boat also. Then we had nicknames like USS Crisco for USS Briscoe. Tom Tug or the Gates of Hell for the USS Thomas S. Gates.
