Opinions are my own.
Oh yeah I remember that from my time at JBLM, starts raining....I guess as long as we are all going the same direction it should work out.

This doesn't however change my long standing opinion that most of these things are vaporware cash grabs.

$35k is a fifth of the cost of a single hellfire plus the cost of the carrier (MQ-9, Apache, F-35/15/16). I don't hate this honestly, this type of thing is perfect for low intensity conflicts like coin in the ME vs flying our 4/5th Gen aircraft into the ground to blow up a Hilux.

Our school doesn't use grade level benchmarks anymore. My kid has struggled since Kindergarten with reading despite intense home and school intervention and is now starting to make a lot of progress but I can't get the school to tell me where he is vs his grade level for reference.

Smells like get in on the ground floor so I can get you hauled in front of a judge for leaking confidential info due to poor security practices in my new "AI" or fabricating legal advice to clients.

The picture I can find of his actually wearing his dress white shows the rows correctly ordered so I'm guessing this was a put back together after retirement thing.

My common refrain as a budget planner when someone complains about peanut butter spread is to ask them what they would cut from their portfolio or area of interest to free up money and suddenly all their stuff is a sacred cow and someone else should give up some money. Repeat ad infinitum....

Yup PVT Snuffy a this months war fighter exercise and PVT Smith next month's exercise is not conducive to quality results. One of my main gripes with AFWERX or UON type equipment is it always fell to the unit to train and utilize.

You mean to tell me using operational units for test and eval detracts from their time to do training for the missions and shortuns the DOTmLPF-P process to fully resource the organize, trian and equip piece?
