and potentially a situation involving individuals who are married to others. Adultery within a squadron is what would kick a proceeding into a court-martial. Not just dating between singles. No one really cares about that anymore as long as the individuals are not in a supervisory situation.

oddly enough, I was kinda/sorta from 85-88. Not specifically SAC but flew on the Joint Staff Ops Team on the NEACP. We were on a SAC base, supported by SAC squadrons, flew on a SAC airplane, worked with the Looking Glass guys across the street and "enjoyed" their "dining facility" while on alert, complied with SAC rules, regulations and training, and flew with SAC aircrews from the 55th. We lived and worked in that same environment and to some extent were "infected" with the local flavor.

don't know yet. The after the patch AAA and SAM levels are very much lower. In order to come even close you have to have ground objects - unlimited and air defense - heavy set. Its still not high enough. But I've found that if you go back to hit secondary targets of opportunity around the primary target location, you will likely get your tail shot up pretty often!! -

I didn't get to it late last night, but looking forward to this one!! -
You are most welcome! Done! All six uploaded and awaiting your approval. I may have been uploading a few at the same time Gocad was so you may have some duplicates. Now that I have in my last-century thinking; downloaded 483 megabytes uploaded the same 483 megabytes to CA for a total bandwidth of just short of a gig it now occurs to me that maybe in the future you guys at CA in order to save bandwidth ($$$) might want to just post the link back to Thirdwire? just a thought in this new 21st Century net-centric world........
