1. IS that guy an AIR FORCE SHRINER?

:nuke:

[Interrobang]

9. Drat. you beat me to it!

That was practically what I was going to say. That guy needs to get some self-respect. :) Either that, or he needs to figure out ways of...uh...chastising his superiors without coming up for immediate courts-martial. One way or the other, je suppose!

2. I fail to see anything comical about it.

Perhaps someone can explain it to me. But in any case I see nothing wrong with the Air force. Even though I did my share of making fun of them when I was in the Marine Corps.

4. did you miss the minature F-16?

If the Marines wheeled out a 1/8th AAV I'd laugh just as hard, how about a 1/12th scale battleship for the Navy?

[Daisuke_Jigen]

11. The Navy doesn't even use battleships anymore

Floating gun platforms lacking smart ammunition have absolutely no place in modern naval warfare. The closest thing do a battleship the navy posseses would be light cruisers or destroyers. I just thought I would share that info. I like to think of myself as an ameteur military historian. Forgive the brief off topic digression.

15. I'm fully aware of that, but thanks

-Semper Fi, and all the other obligatory motivated hellhound leatherneck banter.

3. Frankly, I find it embarrassing

The man looks very silly sitting in that plane.

[BrotherBuzz]

14. No, No, it's a real crowd pleaser

when he drives (flies?) out to the fifty-yard line and hits the ejection button. The crowd just goes wild!

[AnnabelLee]

17. Hehe

Maybe he pedals it out there.:shrug:

[ezgoingrl]

5. Unbelievable

What kind of marketing nightmare is that? "Join the USAF we have tiny planes"


:wtf:

[Lorien]

6. WTF?

They can't be serious!

[Elidor]

7. Oh, how cute!

Isn't that the plane Dubya landed on the carrier?

Oh hell! Photoshop time!

[Capn Sunshine]

8. NO, W's had training wheels

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

10. I was IN the Air Force

and believe me, they would have had to put an M-16 against my head to sit in that silly thing!

FYI, his rank shows him as a Tech Sergeant, or an E-6 if I recall my ranks correctly. A 20 year NCO.

[DS1]

16. I know, I saw that too

He must have been caught screwing the base commander's daughter or son...

[wellstone_democrat]

12. will we be seeing his little 'package' as well?

Inquiring minds want to know since "Our Glorious Leader" set the standard in that area and the media seemed to have no shame in pointing it out to us. I wonder if it is now a standard.

ON Edit: when I was in USAF even the threat of court martial couldn't get me in a ridiculous thing like that. A Tech Sergeant! I can't believe he is *enjoying* that

[Bossy Monkey]

13. Where's the coin slot?

[opihimoimoi]

18. DON'T laff, our freakin TAX MONIES PAID FOR THAT TOY

and the poor guy sitting there, You jus know he freaked when told "Its your turn! Don be late!!"

Damn, if we only use some of that defense monies for Peace.
