No LTC to Colonel's and a three year commitment. The correspondence program a two year course is a b**ch. Never did it. If I'd of made Colonel, I wouldn't of been able to go those desert locations.
They do and we stay there for Carlisle Nationals. We have to make that reservation a year in advance to get a room. Three minute drive to the fairgrounds...perfect!!
Sorry army ranks!
USAF also. I never knew the reason behind it why?
Nice from the guy with the 56 that had a the parts issues.
After a number of weeks I picked up the Chrysler yesterday and took it for a drive. The mechanic said that he thought it had never run better. The car accelerated nicely through the gears and was quiet, fast, and smooth riding. It was good to get the car back on the road. I'm lucky to have a couple of mechanics who aren't afraid to work on 65 year old cars.
Your distributor and a new coil had been installed but the timing had to wait for the rebuild of the fuel pump from Cowboy John's. That arrived last Saturday and it looked good. I took the pump to the station first thing Monday morning, and they were able to install it yesterday - Wednesday. The weather is not great today so I may not be able to get it out for another drive until tomorrow and I'm looking forward to it.

take this for what its worth, 3rd hand information.
I just got off the phone with her dad. He’s talked to one of his buddies already up there. Some guy entered with a rifle yelling stuff in what sounded like a foreign lanaguge but his buddy couldn’t be sure, i guess it’s quite loud in there and they all wear ear protection. This happened right at shift change I guess.
Danger. Higher officers are protected. Granted the army and marines don’t see it that way.
I used these cotton swabs the other day to clean my turntable, how many NSN coded items are in your guy's shops?
Unofficially, a lot, officially, none at all
You have no Idea!
Holy cow I just noticed the manufactured date, 1995, thought they were a little tired, but they worked!
You have no Idea!
CONFIRMED! Just thought I'd ask lol!
Kind of hard to outdate a Q tip! Now rubber a ten year life.
I am out have to get some diesel for the shop then a long day ahead.
Best thing I have with an NSN on it is a tap and dye set. This set was missing 2 or 3 pieces, huge set. IMRL (or tool) P.O. was going to throw it over the side of the ship (Nimitz), they do that outside of 12 miles you know. Anyway he offered it to me said it was either that or it was going in the drink.
What's on the plate?
That Hemi "stock" distrib and two custom ones. Been doing a lot of custom lately. I shut down in June for Carise prep. I spinn alll of the ones I bring up to make sure they are right. Prob 6-700 I am bringing this year with not going last year.
Hope the fastenal store will lend me a bunch of totes again.

Morning fellers. I have a funeral on the schedule for today. A dear friend that I met back in the late 70's that was a cashier for me at the Parts store. Her 3 boys weren't too much younger so we all hung out together.
That kinda sucks, nice to support a friend in time of need.
Mornin fellers.
Made it to shop. Just around freezing. Last bit of pellets in stove getting burned today. Then i will be draggibg the pellet stove out,and give it a thorough cleaning. There is a bushing on the auger that is worn out, it lets dust through that gets into the fan. Causes fan to lose efficiency and eventually goes out of balance. So will work on solving that.
Life is maintenance!
