USNA vs USAFA

[Rez O. Lewshun]

It's a true gem!

Guys, we're missing our true calling, and that is goofing on the Army, specifically Castle Greyskull and their football program.

AF vs Navy typical day:

- Eglin AFB, Fl. Kick-a$$ multiple DACT missions. Debrief. Drink whiskey in the vault while studying the threat. Beer bell rings. Retire to personal squadron bar for vast quantities of kegged beer. Go home and have sex with your girlfriend or wife. Repeat daily.

- <Somewhere in the Med> Wake up to gray, corroded walls. Kick your two roomates out of the way. Work on performance reports for 17 yr olds who miss mommy, smoke crack, and hate you. Suit up for another fleet-defense CAP mission. Turn in circles for two hours, tank, repeat. Pee in a little bag. Recover, buy an icy cold coca cola. Mmmm! Goes down smooth! Go to bed with two roomates who fart a lot and leave their tonail clippings on the floor. Repeat daily.

I did two deployments to the Med. Never set foot on a ship. Got credit for PIC time while I was asleep in the rack in the back of the plane after eating my dinner which I cooked in galley oven. Never peed in a bag either. Just for fun, when the crew jackass used the toilet, pulled the lighting circuit breaker and hit some pilot-induced turbulence to make him get p!ss all over himself. Man I miss those days.

But you're right. Time to target Hudson High - or rather the woops as we call them since their uniforms look like those of the flying monkeys in The Wizard Of Oz.

Why does a USMA cadet have two more IQ points than does a horse? So they won't crap on the parade field. (Pretty lame, I know)

Don't forget USCGA.

It is the toughest to get into and it is in a shatty place, but it is a very good education.

I wasn't tall enough to get in to USGCA, I'm only 5' 11'

Yeah, but when a girl asks you what you flew, you have to say, "I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill myself.'

Baahhh, one of my favorites.

Hornet and Tomcat guys get the thrill of a carrier ops, breaking the sound barrier, flying cool-looking airplanes. P-3 guys have to suck it up with $30 - $90/day per diem, nice CBQ rooms (usually) and deciding which bar to go to after the mission. It's just not fair. I'd say P-3 pilots are probably the best paid pilots in the Navy.

They need to be... can't look cool in the break with the 4 fans of freedom!

Good enough for me. I'll get the first round. You guys save your money to pay into your mess fund.

Did you just say a nice Q room for the navy? LOL - what is that...a shanty with a 50 year old taiwanese hooker? I've quickly learned that a "nice room" in the navy vs. a "nice room" in the air force are very different animals.

The nice thing about the Zoomies is that they are humble as well.

Gotta keep it in perspective. It beats an 8 x 8 stateroom with a couple other dudes.

Just keep telling yourself... if given the chance I know I could CQ too....

Ya keep telling yourself that. I know lots of good dudes that never got past the boat.

I was watching a Seattle Seahawks game, and one of the starting Seahawk defenders was a Zoomie. I didn't catch his name, but it's always cool seeing service academy guys playing professionally.

Bryce Fisher. Defensive Tackle. Class of 99 I think.

Who did some good things for the AF by serving in the Washington ANG, going to Iraq or Afghanistan and meeting the troops, and serving as a poster boy for good values. Then fuc*ed it all up by being charged with domestic violence after hitting his wife while trying to keep his cell phone (with his girlfriend on the line) away from her. Just goes to show you that as soon as you put someone on a pedastal, they'll let you down.

Yep - class of 99. Was in a few different academic classes with him if I remember right.

If by "they" you mean Herks... then you're still wrong. Don't know who's teaching history to the kids these days.

P3s don't get enough $$ for gas to run all 4 engines at the same time, do they? Silly Navy...
