Good luck, mate! And be safe.
We'll miss you on the forums.
We'll miss you on the forums.
An aircraft technician, huh? So you won't be doing any flying, you just fix them, right?
If so, that may be a pretty good job since you won't be doing any of the fighting and most of the time you'll be safe onboard the ship and not within enemy territory.
Good luck to you. Hopefully you won't have to serve much and Obama will pull the troops back to the US.
Glad I didn't miss this thread... I've always thought of you as one of the BEST ones here, so make sure you stay safe and be well. I know we all look forward to you coming back. Enjoy:

Aww, but who am I going to get my sexytiem from now?
Good luck with the training mate. Stay safe, work hard and (try to) have fun. You'll be back before you know it!
That's cool, I considered joining the Chair Force at one point. After some thought I decided to join the military instead.
Just bustin' your chops. Sooner or later you'll learn all about interservice rivalry.

Take the Army. When the stuff hits the fan, the young Army private wakes up to the bellowing of his First Sergeant. He grabs his BDUs out of his foot locker, dresses, runs to the chow-hall for breakfast on the fly, then jumps in his tank. Pretty soon, the company commander, a captain, arrives, gives him a big salute, and says, "Give 'em Hell, soldier!"
Now take the Navy. When the stuff hits the fan, the young Sailor is eating breakfast in the mess. He hustles the 20 feet to his battle station, stuffing extra pastries in his pocket as he goes. There he sits, in the middle of a big, steel target, with nowhere to run, when the Captain comes on the 1MC and says, "Give 'em Hell, Sailors! I salute you!"
Now take the Marines. When the stuff hits the fan, the young Marine is kicked out of bed by his First Sergeant and puts on the muddy set of BDUs he was wearing on the field exercise he was part of three hours earlier. He gets no breakfast, but is told to feel free to chew on his boots. He runs out and forms up with his rifle. Pretty soon, his company commander, a captain, comes out, gives the Marine a sharp salute, and says, "Give 'em Hell, Marine!"
And then there's the Air Force. When the stuff hits the fan, the Airman receives a phone call at his off-base quarters. He gets up, showers,shaves, and puts on the fresh uniform he picked up from the BX cleaners the day before. He jumps in his car and cruises through the McDonalds drive-thru for an Egg McMuffin and Coca-Cola on his way into work. Once at work, he signs in on the duty roster. He proceeds to his F-15, spends 30 minutes pre-flighting it, and signs off the forms. Pretty soon the pilot, a young captain arrives, straps into the jet, and starts the engines. Our young Airman stands at attention, gives the aviator a sharp salute, and says, "Give 'em Hell, Captain!"
