I'll miss that annoying idiot.

All the cool kids join the AF.

My family is a Navy family. My grandfather was on a destroyer in WWII. My uncle is currently a Captain serving in the US Navy as Airboss of the USS Eisenhower. He used to be the XO of VF-103 "The Jolly Rogers" and CO of VF-32 "The Swordsmen" when they flew F-14s (he was the RIO).

Thanks to all who serve.

2E6 isn't that telephone?

Yes sir it is telephone (telephone switching to be exact) and now I have been in telephone industry for 15 years.

Telephone is both outside and inside plant.

Yes, it is now. They combined the two career fields when I was in my third year. I was originally trained on the DMS-100 and MSL-100 Digital Switches. I never received formal training in the outside plant field, it was OJT at the time.

One of my best friends and bunkmate was in Global Weather at Offutt, AFB. Where are you stationed Worst?

I'm at Lackland. I'm a 2E1x2 formally Metnav now working with Radio to become custerfuck called ATCALS.
