The Navy got one right

[Hugh Jorgan]

This guy was kicked out of the navy in 1994 while in flight school in Corpus Christi. I knew the guy and actually thought he was a bright and good guy. Then he gets caught wooing an underage girl at the KFC outside the gate and details of his other interesting escapades south-of-the-border were documented conveniently on the video recorder he had with him. That move didn't seem so bright, but I just thought he was a perv. Apparently he was more fukked up than we could even imagine. This is creepy. I'm sure there are a few other dudes on this site who remember Rey.

Lethal injection is how this guy should die...

Lethal injection of a nail studded axe handle.

Agreed. I have no tolerance for rape, none. Then you add murder; hang the sick **CENSORED****CENSORED****CENSORED****CENSORED**.

Hey Hugh how much do you know about the NAS at Corpus Christi? I cant find any info on them. What do they fly down there? I saw a lot of Kingairs in Coast Guard colors flying over every few mins when I was in that area in January.

Those aren't Coast Guard colors per se (although I think the paint jobs are pretty similar) but training colors. The Navy/Marine Corps team likes to paint all of its trainers orange and white.

Those being T-34s, TH-57s, T-6s, T-44s (king airs), TC-12s (bigger king airs), T-2s, TA-4s (if
they are still flying them, not sure) and T-45s.

Coast Guard pilots go through training with the USN and USMC types though but they 'get' to keep the orange and white we're here to save you colors throughout their career, while the USN & USMC types are all too happy to get to the haze gray and dark green aircraft that say we're here to project some power ashore (or take pictures as the case may be)

Oh yea, back in the day Corups was flying T-34s, T-44s and TC-12s. While down in Kingsville they had T-2s, TA-4s, and T-45s.
