So, I just recieved news from a friend of mine, Tim...
He was one of four people from the Oregon State ROTC (USAF) to get selected for flight training. He was told after he got lucky enough to get a ride in a F-15E (I guess having a Lt. Col. from Nam as a dad pays off, eh?)... He's hoping for fighter, but we'll find out, eh?
Keeping you all in the loop.

need two tools: WD-40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should, use the
WD-40. If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

Does he know where he'll be going through UPT?

Personally if I was shooting for a pilot slot in the USAF right now I would want something in the AC-130 or MC-130P...more flying time and some kick butt missions as well.
