geezzzer- Got any good stories about the AF JOs, jets, upper echelon or rules
you'd
like to share with us? BRBR

Nothing major, Just stood tall before the wing commander for things like
rolling up my sleeves, wearing brown boots, flying too close when coming into
the overhead..

Many JOs leaving at this time(late 70's) for the airlines. Not a lot of happy
campers but really good pilots. I think there was more than a little SAC
tainted guys around that saw how wierd SAC was during the SE Asia war games.

Plus some O-6s that were transitioning to the F-4 for the first time that were
pretty scary. A B-52 suadron CO that was going to an F-4 wing in Germany.

How they chose their COs still amazes me. Wing Commander picks his COs. When
the Wing Commander is new all sorts of O-5s show up suddenly to rush those
jobs.

My Ops officer went across the state to a O-2 base to try to get a squadron
there, flying Cessna push-pulls, which were all down for shucking their aft
prop, taking off the tails...
