BTW, you know the guy on the far right of the bottom pic? Looks like he's wearing winter bottoms with a summer top. His flash is centered in the center of his forehead too. He's part of HQ, isn't he? Let me guess he's the supply or NBC guy? I would of had a field day outside of Ft. Bragg on the beret issue in 2004. Just one of my pet peeves.

It's because guys are still going by the book and keeping the cardboard backing. They need to gut that ***** and just leave the backing around the flash.

That's the NCO in ya coming out. Maintaining the standard. Thank God I had a beret-**** 1SG when I was enlisted that constantly hounded us on them. I see so many butter bars (I guess I'm kinda one) walking around all jacked the fawk up.

Kickass!

You know, I've always wondered what sort of relationship a fighter pilot has with their crew. Looks like y'all are pretty tight-knit.

And, I'm not a whiz when it comes to airplanes (Kidatari will hopefully come in and clarify) but I thought a F117 was distinct from a U2. Both Stealth, just different missions. Fighter v. bomber.

F117 is the black diamond shaped stealth fighter...SR71 is the black long thin one with tapered edges that's a stealth recon/bomber thing...B2 is the boomerang shaped stealth bomber...U2 is an old school spy plane that wasn't stealth really, looks like a normal high altitude plane painted black.

Google each of them and you'll see...


Edit: there's the pictures below...

They're both stealth, U-2 is used more for spy missions as well, iirc.

F-117


U-2


Josh had a pic of one up...

On a side note, I don't think I've seen so many sir names ending in a Z in all my life. Or do they actually all end on an S , and you guys decided to thug it up a bit? Sweet pic man. Keep up the good work.
