[becks]

thanks. So pretty much everyone in the AF gets wings when they complete their training?

[SoonerStormchaser]

Hell no!
Only 5% of the AF gets wings...and only 20% of those 5% are officers.

[olevetonahill]

When they aint Lookin
Escape .
I bet very Few even try to .

[SoonerStormchaser]

Yah...apparently, they're looking on facebook and myspace for info from the victims' own websites to use against them during the interrogation part. Luckily, I had my facebook account locked up for about a year now.


But I'm sure somebody on these boards'll call em up and put in a few good words for me. ;)
