Air Force Bashing

In reality, no service should be bashed. They all work to make the nation safe and all do a great job at it. It's so stupid how there is so much competition between services. Just imagine if all the services were to join as one?

Brian, maybe one day after you've served in the military for a while, you'll understand why it's not so easy. What do you want...one military branch? It couldn't work.

You see, each branch of the military has a very specific type of mission....The Navy protects the seas, the Army flights land battles. The Air Force - when they wake up - protect the skies. The Marines wake up the Air Force, fix what the Army messed up, and the catch a ride from the Navy to project U.S. Hell and Fury from the air, on land and sea. You can't expect the Air Force to be fire breathers because, quite frankly, they'd scare the pi$$ out of themselves and not be able to perform their mission.

Likewise, you can't expect an Army infantryman to have a corporate mentality because that just doesn't work in the field behind a machine gun.

Lastly, it's fun to rag on each other. We're all having fun. Sometimes we get mad at each other and get our feelings hurt. Then we get over it. I rag USMCMech and he rags me. We both rag Grabo and MarineNAV and then MikeD tells us all to shut up.

In the end, we'll never be one big service...but in the end, we have one another's back. That's just kind of the way it is.

An Air Force Airman will always find himself at the working end of my jokes. And I'd always give my life for him. It's all in fun.

Um, no! For the most part, they're not scared of guns....like most people in the Air Force...

Marines sure ain't scared of guns, and that's good. But unlike your average Airman, Marines get scared and confused by modern, complex high-tech devices such as computers, toasters, light switches, door knobs, etc.

I can't find the link that list's the ASVAB score averages by branch, but I am sure you can all guess which branch has the highest average score.

What about Wuss scores??

We're not talking about harvard, sister...I mean, brother...we're talking about the military. Remember, a killing force?

Wait...the Air Farce doesn't do that very well...

The wuss score is something dumb Marines came up with to make themselves feel better for such low ASVAB scores. And I think your generalization of the Air Force is like saying everyone from San Francisco is gay. I scored high on the ASVAB, I am in better shape than probably 80% of all Marines, and I have deployed to Iraq and I never [censored] my pants once, and I am in the Air Force, . I think someone has blue envy maybe?

All I really know is that when I was eating at the DFAC's in Iraq, if I ever had a conversation with the ground troops, they always said at least one, if not all 3 of one of these things-

1.You guys have all the hot girls.
2.One time I ate at an Air Force chowhall and it is far superior.
3. I joined the wrong service.

We make up for our low scores in our pure studliness....

Now, come on....do you really think all Marines have low Asvab scores? Believe it or not, there are alot of "dumb grunts" carrying rifles in the bush by choice. I, for one, turned down a shot at being an F/A-18 avionics test to be a real ma...I mean, an Infantryman...

I have 3 siblings that were raised in San Francisco. I also have 3 gay siblings.

Coincidence?

...As I clean the coffee from my keyboard. Why would I have blue envy? That really is funny. I wouldn't join the Air Force if it would keep my children alive. Step on with that one....

You guys do have all the hot girls...but they'd rather be boinking Marines...

You do have the best food, that's why there's so many large Air Farces....

And who wouldn't want to trade a rifle to watch hot girls and get fat?

You know, speaking of ASVAB scores, I had a fairly high one, but all the recruiters ever suggested was that I forget about college, go enlisted and become a mechanic.

Are there extra points for recruiting an enlisted mechanic or something? I mean, no offense to anyone who's a present or former enlisted mechanic, but telling a bright-eyed, AP-class high school student to bypass college and enlist is a little weird.
 
Should I be the cynic and suggest racism?


Naw, that stuff's ancient history and doesn't happen anymore......

That never crossed my mind and I really just thought it was like some extra point recruiter-wise!

Really, I'm the last guy to use the "R" word.

In a weird way that's kind of funny. I guess that sometimes I'm over-sensitive about that topic ever since I figured out (way back in my twenties) that there were some underlying currents of the big *R* in some of my own attitudes......and I was absolutely positive that *I* was above that kind of thing.

I guess that it's a good sign for the future when I think racism before you do.....

I'm a pretty 'dense' guy in terms of the "R" word. My first presumption is that the person is having a bad day, then my second presumption is that I had a bad first impression. And then generally it takes someone throwing brick at my noggin and a white hooded cape before I think 'That boy's got some social abnormalities' ya know?

Well I haven't posted in a long time so I think this thread needs my support.

Why do Marines ride on Navy ships?
Because sheep are too obvious.
Why are there no special forces in the Marines?
They are all special.
