Kick myself in the *** for leaving the Navy. Hell I was a E-6 at 7 years prob would have retired a 9 and a cush job also as a photo interpreter.. The air force is just a PIA to make rank and I changed career fields 3 times so had to hit all the skill levels. Had to lose a rank to switch into it also. Hell I was a freaking E-5 for forever and had a ribbon rack like a general!
 
Morning all!
-1 this morning.

Super Dave Osborne passed away...
Rip Bob Einstein..
 
Yep check comes like clock work. I thought you were closer. Oh well as you know 4 years comes and go's quick as you get older...haha!!
 
Definitely like Rescue the best of all the things I have done. Did spec ops 17 years was always different each day and was usually first to go (advon) which was a blessing usually. Saw some crazy crap doing it.

Actually out in the field no usually a small two man tent. Other time Mostly Hiltons and Radisons. Used to do the space shuttle launches a lot. That was usually a cake trip. Coco Beach FL, Radison. Have a meet and greet the shuttle crew bbq before each flight. And in NEVER launched on time. Hell stayed a month down there once in Jan. Have some videos around somewhere I should convert and post pretty wild seeing the shuttle launce from in the air from a C-130. That was the gig did around 10 of them. Broke hard once in July and had to do a all hands engine change out on the Tarmac with rented cranes etc. Took a week that was miserable hat as hell and 100% humidity.
 
On my last deployment AF Commander gave me a AF Commendation Medal.
I thought it was the coolest thing I got out of that deployment.
An Army guy getting an AF medal....haha
 
LOL I have a coast guar medal! That's a weird one. We were usually around them state side we did the long ocean rescues since the Helo's could in flight refuel (pavehawks). I got to the NY unit about a week after the perfect storm. Knew the pilot (Grahm Bushier) well. Told me his side. Man what a cluster **** they never should have launched in that weather.
 
Good morning , looks like a wet cool day today here, but a great looking weekend with sunshine at 60 degrees.
 
Just nasty here and I want to grab a leaf spring off the parts car that is sinking into the lawn! Prob when it gets drier out.
 
Morning guys. It's supposed to be sunny and 40's today. A January thaw for us. It's supposed to be nice tomorrow too.
 
It looks like we will have a good winter, well, if you go by the acorns :popcorn: we don't have an acorn crop at all this year.
 
So early and I am getting on the road. Not sure i like this hour and 15 minute commute in the cold.

Good for some quality time with the dart tho

I'm surprised too.
That would be great if you can use the leaf pack or at least the second leaf out of your parts car.
I have a set of aftermarket leaf packs here. You're welcome to the 'em for parts. One side is pretty shot, the other not too bad. My bet is most of the wear was in the main leafs. I can measure the leaf thickness for you to make sure their the same as your 64's inner leafs.
