The Air Force announces new awards schema...

Courtesy Oldloadr's daughter, currently serving in the Chairforce in Germany...

Click the award below to get the .pdf of the whole new schema. Warning - there is a tiny bit of naughty in there. Nothing horrible, just be aware of your surroundings.

Duck and Cover Award Awarded to Airmen who spent their entire deployment at a Forward Operating Base (FOB); the only real sign of war was the occasional “Duck and Cover”siren that followed infrequent mortar attacks.

Update: I'm thinking I should make it clear - this came from an Air Force Source - I stripped the data from the original ppt before I pdf'd it - this is zoomies poking fun at themselves, like the Army has Bob On The FOB (click the "comic archive" button in the sidebar).

John, I think you need to get a new partner for your blog. Cheers, Dusty
 
John - I thought it was pretty even handed; lots of little digs on ourselves (AF) and one big dig on the Army: all of which based on our collective stereotypes of ourselves and each other. I always felt that if I can't laugh at the jokes about the Af, I don't deserve to laugh at the jokes about the Army, Navy, USMC... BTW, the worse things get in the world in general and the ME in particular, the more we all need a laugh every now and then...
