    I find it hard to believe that a UFO capable of space travel would allow itself to be shot down given the wild flight characteristics and ability to disable our weapons and radar which is what some military witnesses have claimed.

    I have a friend that was assigned to the Air Force Operational Test and Evaluation Center. Pretty cool job for his first assignment.

    They have 4 detachments at Kirtland AFB (NM), Eglin AFB, (FL), Hill AFB (UT), Edwards AFB (CA), and Nellis AFB (NV). Think they had one at Peterson in Colorado but it’s Space Force now.

    Oh man, hangovers at 30 are worse than ten years ago, I used to wake up eat some Advil and be fine, just woke up feeling like death. Drank a 750 of pedialyte I’ve been saving

    wait until you're almost 40

    I rarely ever drink more than enough to get a light buzz anymore, but if I mix even 1 beer with 1 liquor I'll get a splitting headache the next morning.

    I love drinking but the after affects are just about to our weight these hangovers.

    I feel like every 6 months I get a new symptom during hangovers lol.

    today went and had the shits and a splitting headache with anxiety.

    I need to try other things lol

    I still find it hard to believe that the Space Force is a real military branch now, that Netflix comedy about it probably has something to do with it.

    "Space Force > Salvation Army > Coast Guard" lol

    No one knows what they do, especially not any of the service members.

    Until people in this planet learn to get along with each other I am sure no advanced alien civilization wants anything to do with us.

    What does he fly? When I was a kid up until maybe 12 or so I wanted to be a fighter pilot. One of my friend's dads was in the USAF and when I was probably 9 or 10 he straight up told me I'd be a co pilot at best because I wore glasses, I was crushed lol

    I think now you can have the corrective surgery and qualify but not back then

    My father flew B-52s and my brother went to MQ-9s due to vision inconsistencies. He can get corrective/LASIK and have a good chance at manned again. He plans to get it, finish his PPL, and apply to a Guard unit after his active duty RPA stuff is over. If I could give him my eyes I would’ve.

    I’ve struggled in my current job with all the active duty members complaining about pilots. I could rant for at least an hour on that so I’ll stop.

    And I'm 99.9% sure only officers are pilots, not enlisted. So you can't just go in thinking you'll be a pilot as you'll need to be a commissioned officer first.

    Met a few pilots myself, but generally speaking officers are morons.

    The enlisted RPA pilot programs ended a while back. My brother has met a few that went E to O. I find it cool that they get to keep their wings regardless if they chose to stay enlisted.
    Not wrong. I respect my brother for his self-awareness. Some think they’re a gift from god straight out of officer training, academy, ROTC, etc.
