Anyone know the name of this idiot? What happened to him? Is he still
flying on the taxpayer's dime?

Enquiring mines want to know.

I think you'll find this is not all that uncommon.

A Navy commander I knew once gave me a coffee mug with a John Paul
Jones quote on it: "I wish to have no Connection with any Ship that
does not Sail fast for I intend to go in harm's way." The way I see it,
these guys are training to go in harm's way, and I expect them to drive
fast, stay left, and take chances. Of course they're gonna pooch it
once in a while. I'm glad to see they got down safe.

Yep. They say that using night vision stuff like that is very difficult,
due to reduced depth perception, for one. I can only imagine that is very
true.

And extremely limited field of view.
Like looking thru a toilet paper tube.
