Not Work Safe .

[Gunz]

How'd you quit? I made us both do it cold turkey,

Cold Turkey in 1996 when my youngest was born. I was 45. Wanted to be around to see him graduate college, get a good job, and pay his own car insurance.

Goals!

Ya, I'mma need a nap after processing it as well.

Part of my job as a paramedic is FTO. We get kids that were born in early 2000s. I'm 48. Lol.

 

[The Quartermaster]

I was born in 1973. The B-52 was in the middle of its projected life cycle.

I'll die before it goes to the boneyard. This isn't surprising and many of you should get in line.

I was born in 71. There are most likely pilots for it that still haven't been born yet.

Last one came out in 59 or 60 IIRC.

Think about this. You are a brand new UPT grad who flies this plane, retiring in 1979.
Two year later your son starts flying the plane. Retiring in 2001.
Two years later your Grandchild starts flying the same plane, Retiring in 2023.
Your Great-Grandchild is in UPT, going to Barksdale in 2025.

In my last pistol class, tactics for two at Gunsite that the wife and I went to? There was a father and son team. Both were/are A-10 pilots. One was telling us brrrrrrrt stories from Desert Storm, the other was telling brrrrrrrt stories from both OIF and OEF during lunch breaks.

The great-grandchild draws orders for Minot and shoots themselves in the face.

Failure of the edumacation system.

@Gunz what were the smokes for, using Huey's as FAC's or for marking friendly positions?

[Kraut783]

Gunz, you can get started with us anytime. The insider information from that war is actually fascinating to us who have been on the ground during a different time.

 

[Muppet]

Pop a green to denote friendly. Yellow to mark an LZ during daylight, strobes to mark LZ at night.

We tossed purple in tunnel entrances and covered the entrance, the purple would drift up through the hidden air holes revealing the extent of the complex. Then we’d drop C4 down the air holes and blow the fuckers up.

We also carried pop up flares, red and green.

Army Hueys did most of the Marine medevacs for 2nd CAG, escorted by Marine AH-1s. Marine 46’s for resupply and transport and OV-10s for spotters when we could get them.

I got started again, sorry

I could listen to this all day papi!

You ever watch videos from the American Veteran Center channel on YT? Bro...it's a goldmine of our mil's legacy and heroes. The one that got me to tears was the UH1 medevac pilot and all of the feelings he had and still has, especially saying to the most painful memory that the ones he was in his opinion, too slow to save, that he'll hopefully see them again soon enough.

That tiger stripe is dope. And worth big $$ to collectors.

I still have some of my dad's stuff from VN.

@Gunz , I also love the "I was there" stories. Unfortunately they are becoming fewer and further between.
