Oh HELL!NO

Hey, but at least we took the parachutes off our KC-135's so we can save some gas while flying over Iraq and Afganistan... that should help foot the bill. Rumor has it the bunks are next - augmented crews don't need rest anyway... service before self...

They are not taking the only comfort (and I say that loosely) I have left while doing tps!

These capsules are basically an Airstream trailer on a pallet. They are nice inside, but nothing like the interior of an 89th VIP aircraft. They are really intended to provide secure communication ability to 4 Stars when they need to travel on transport aircraft. These would be much less expensive than maintaining a fleet of BBJs for these guys to travel around in. Congressmen would probably not use these, hence they will grandstand about wasteful spending while they get on their 89th Gulfstream to travel

The AF is so broken right now I don't know who can fix it. They can't do anything right. Just casual observation from outside... It's ok being a second class ANG citizen.

Since I'm a Guard dude, I'm tempted to walk across the street to ACC HQ and ask someone "WTFO??" Although this whole thing makes me throw up in my mouth a little, I don't think my WG/CC would appreciate me making waves at ACC.

The active duty USAF has become soft. Very soft. We have serious issues. Hopefully the new guy can fix some o' this sh*t.

Good thing the ANG never wastes any taxpayer dollars...........
