    Interesting video. Amazing how little the job duties have changed in 50+ years. We have been there as TACP people for many, many years.

    If you want to play in the dirt just join the Army/Marines? Not to diss but what are the after service job possibilities?

    TACP folks are more man than I wanted to be. I was a radar tech for fighters for 21 years. I killed with a screwdriver and an oscilloscope in one hand, coffee in the other.
