AF weinies... its takes 10 of your rates to do the same thing it takes 1 flying squid to do....

example...
you have 1 guy thats only job is to remove and replace the tire off a plane...
where the Navy same guy is also the airframe mechanic/painter/hydrolic expert etc etc etc..

Hmmm.. Last time a tire had to be changed when I was a Crew Chief on C130's, we didn't have any specialists do that job, unless you are talking about the j.e.e.p's. There is no magical person who just changes tires all day.

Crew Chiefs did all the maintenance on the planes. Yes, there are specialists (GAC, Com/nav, hydro, electro, engine) but there job is just to help the CC fix the plane.

Excelsior, I got my letters of recommendation from my physics professor (who didn't even know me but i aced both his classes so he wrote some great BS), a social worker (family friend), a priest (family friend), my manager at my work study job and my assistant manager at the same job.

Yeah, that was like me when I signed up for the CF. I got letters of recommendation from one of the guys that ran my city band, and some family friends who were teachers, pharamacists, stuff like that.

Doesn't hurt that the guy that ran my band is a Knight of the British Empire (We had to call him Sir William), and was an army Captain with the 48th Highland regiment...I didn't know the last part, but it sure looked good

What good are facts to him? Like the fact that the only heavy bombers are USAF assets...
