They wore blues back then?![]()
You want prehistoric: I came on board when 1505's were still in use. We also had a long sleeved dark blue shirt. The shirt, trousers, and neck tie were all the same color. The all dark blue was the best uniform, IMHO.
The old bull and the young bull were standing on the hill looking down at all the heifers. The young bull said, "Let's run down there and bang a heifer." The old bull said, "Let's walk down there and bang 'em all."
That's right. We were "Blue Suiters" and we were some badass motherfuckers. What's your excuse?

The old bull broke his hip walking down the hill, and the young bull had all the heifers to himself...:-"![]()
Damn old bull's and their old bull privilege, hopping around smacking young bull's all the time... #youngbullsmatterThe old bull got a titanium hip replacement and smacked the young smartass bull over the head with it![]()

Is it not available through the AFPC portal or whatever it is called? (I'm a contractor for the AF so I don't recall the name/ link, I just know airmen have one)
And my apologies for the temporary hijack, Northerner. If you are one of those who got notified, congratulations and well done. If not, best of luck and hopefully promotion is in your near future.
It'll be open today in the next 30 minutes, some units went around and let selectees know in advance. Mine decided to make me wait until today. Just putting the feelers out there to see who made it.
That's right...I recall someone writing elsewhere or talking about it. Great idea if your squadron wants to participate, but a bad idea if your leadership is....."less than engaged."
I find your out look, and plans for the future, to be outstanding. As you rightly observed, the pity pot is of no use now, or ever. Your observations and choices show a maturity than will serve you well, now and in the future.
