i dont know what the Air Force uses, if they even use a variation of it.

The Air Force variation: "Huh?"

Just kidding. Unfortunately we don't have anything like that in the Air Force. That is definately one thing I think we (the USAF) lack: motivation, dedication, and pride in ones self and unit/AF. Not specifically saying that about the entire USAF, just my opinion on what I see and deal with everyday with my job and the people I work with. Personally, I love the Air Force, just not my job. I want to get out of maintenance as soon as possible!

It took me over 10 years to stop uttering 'Say Again?' instead of 'Huh?' :lol:

Yeah, I'm trying to teach some new Airmen to not use "Huh?" and "What?" Let's just say it's an uphill battle. But I have one thing on my side that they don't. AFI 3-1. And for those of you that don't know what that is, it means I have 3 stripes and they have 1, so in the end they will listen to me or pay the price (not trying to sound like a power hog or anything).

Wow, I totally missed my 2 year mark. It was over a month ago!

It feels strange. I don't feel like I've actually accomplished that much in 2 years. :(

Yeah yeah, Silver Sword Squadron, AC5 Red Ace, nothing accomplished. :lol:

Dude, reflect, but keep in mind, looking back in time is different than looking forward in time. What you've done is still a lot. See, regardless of "common value", your skill in AC5 (at least) has improved a lot, you raised in ranks (for a reason!), you're leading Aquila's "bad-ass" Flight. You have proven yourself reliable, trustworthy and a decent person through and through.

A chinese proverb says, "one does see happiness and luck only over the houses of others".
I think it's pretty easy to understand.
Looking at yourself, as you went through everything you accomplished, provides a different angle of view for you. We, the others, know our skills and can estimate how "hard" or smart you really were - and I think all will agree, you are hard and smart. :thum:
A great friend to have and example to all of us. Nothing less. Most likely more. ;)

Lol, now I almost forgot, congratulations on 2 years and 1 month as a member of Aquila.

HE'S BAAAAAAAAAACK!

That's right, our second Ace of Aces has decided that he's had a long enough vacation, hiking the mountains of Anea and living with the monks there (no, he's not a Strangereal Batman :laugh: )

Flight Lieutenant Hesse has returned to the nest, as all Aquilas will, sooner or later. Everyone, please give him a warm welcome back.

Nick, I see your flight is one down, so I'm gonna give Wraith to you, for now.

Clay, on behalf of all of Aquila, WELCOME BACK! Get signed in, get a room, then join us all for a celebratory drink in the pub.

Aquila, Triumphant once again!

:2cool:

Well look at you Shadow! Movin on up! :party:

I also find it quite apt that 13 made a Batman Begins reference, since it's partially where my callsign came from. :)
