I am retired USAFR and am mortified by this crap. Can’t believe the “O” went along with it. He and the chunky monkey SRNCO both need to have their asses reamed.
You can retire from the reserve component after 20 as well Yef. The difference is reserve retirements don’t provide a pension check until 60. (unless you’ve deployed then deployments cut down time from that)
Yef, you might want to engage your brain before you open your mouth. Or not.
You say some of the dumbest fucking things and you’re always trying to one up people. They ought to call you “Cool Whip” because you’re always trying to top everything. You try to be funny but you lack the wit and timing to be so. Seriously, go away. Adults are talking.
IMHO “Miracle Whip” would be a good nickname for him because from time to time one could look at his comments and think it’s a miracle that he even remembers how to breathe!
So..you’re saying this ISN’T normal for the Air Force?

Sea Story Alert.
There I was, my last re-enlistment. I chose to have the ceremony performed in-flight, on the mighty P-3 Orion, with my DivO administering. We moseyed up to the flight station, and I grabbed a NB-8 Navy Backpack parachute on the way up. The Ell-Tee first discharged me from the Navy, and was a bit surprised when I began to don the parachute.
“AW1Ed, what are you doing?”
“Just Mr.Ed now, sir. Please ask the Flight Station to depressurize, ’cause I’ll be getting out here.”
His look was priceless, and the Flight Engineer couldn’t stop laughing through the rest of the ceremony.

Amen to that, how in the ever-loving fuckety-fuck does she ever expect anyone to take her seriously after some stupid stunt like that? I’m sure they’ll get a shitstorm of well-deserved ass-reamings very soon if they haven’t started to already.
Brief it to Mattis. Yea. Wouldn’t want to the guy that has to brief that. “Good Lord! Mattis just ate the messenger!” If it was a joke, well, some jokes just aren’t meant to be video taped and shared amongst the masses.

Youse guys have it all wrong!
She’s just beginning to learn the hand motions for the “Chicken Dance”! 😉
I have only had a reenlistment ceremony one time. That was the first time I re-upped. All other times I just signed some paperwork.
The last time I reenlisted I really wasn’t planning on doing so. I was over 20 and was planning on getting out of the the military. Our reenlistment NCO just assumed that I was going to re-up.
I said to the re-up NCO when she brought me some paperwork to sign for six more years, “what makes you think that I want to reenlist?” The NCO thought I was just kidding. “Sign your contract, I am busy and have other things to do.” I signed it.
I later told the NCO that I was serious and wasn’t planning on reenlisting. She was shocked and told me that she would tear up the contract if I wanted. “Nah, don’t bother, six more years!”
Two years later, while returning to Fort Knox Kentucky on a Saturday night, I was hit head-on by a drunk driver and almost killed. I spent over four months in the hospital learning how to walk again. Funny how things happen.
If you lost conciousness, like over 24 hours or more, have been diagnosed with PTSD and TBI, you are entitled to a greater level of VA Comp, that being r.2/t You must also have a&a, and a letter from your mental health professional. Get the benefiits you have earned! Good luck to you!

There is serious seismic activity at the gravesite of LtCol D, USAAF/USAF. Dad never forgot his Army roots and would’ve brought serious pee to bear on these misguided assclowns. You should’ve heard him the first time that “Army of One” shit aired. Does article 134 of the UCMJ cover this level of dumbassery?
Could be…I was viewing on my crappy smartphone. I’d also slam that reenlistment officer for having to read the oath as opposed to memorizing and delivering it…also, sloppy bearing for both officer and NCO…But, in all fairness, I’ve witnessed worse…
Hand salute? WTF you talking about? Who salutes through a whole oath.
She’s clearly holding her right hand up. As one would do when you’re told to “Raise your right hand and repeat after me.” You know, like every time I took the oath (or any oath of office or during courtroom testimony). Now whether said hand is operating a T-Rex puppet or not is the debate.
Good god you have to be the dumbest guy on the Internet. If you do not know how to swear an oath I suspect you have never served. Its okay being a civilian, just don’t act like you are in the know.
Jesus H. Tap dancing Christ! Yef! Get your GT waiver ass out on the company street and sweep until I get tired! You will not speak unless spoken to by a superior, am I clear? Now unass my AO!
A video that clearly trolls military and veterans, requires turning off all security/privacy to load the video.
Hmmmmmm… Funny that…
If you did so to view it, at the very least clear your browser caches and re-enable all prior security/privacy settings. If you are truly suspicious, it would not hurt to kick off a manual scan with your preferred antivirus/anti-malware tool.

Of course at the end of the day it is HER re-enlistment. I’ve seen them done from horseback and in a lot of non military ways. As long as the oath is sworn and they mean it who cares about the bells and whistles.

If this is real they both ought to be charged and the reenlistment voided but I wear tri-focals…and they are dirty…and I can see the video editing.
Maybe we should be trying to find out who is trolling us and who thought it was a good idea to make this Airman look so bad.
Yes, it’s real. The officer said he failed to do his duty and will do better next time. (Hell, he ought to be fired just for that alone.”) The NCO said she was making the video, suggesting it wasn’t real, for her children but then some hard questions were asked, such as ‘So, you didn’t re-enlist?’ and ‘There was another oath taken?’ Turns out that she also forgot to tell people who complained to Public Affairs which, by the way, issued a reply, that she works for Public Affairs!

Among many military experiences, the most humbling and stirring ones was when a soldier asked me to re-enlist them. Even in the USAR this is deeply important duty and honor for anyone to administer to Oath. For a senior officer to allow such a mockery to occur is WRONG. A Serviceman, signing up to serve our nation is not a trivial thing. A re-enlistment means that, once again, that individual is putting US before their own personal situation.
I get that some humor should be allowed, AW1ed’s story about the parachute is pretty damn funny. 🙂
I hope that someone channels the ghost of Curtis Lemay and lays some serious ass whuppin’ on these two.

She does show up in the AFGAL in the 118 MSG as a student. That Wing in the TN ANG now has an RPA mission with attendant intel functions, one of which purports to be imagery analysis. I suspect there are more than one individual in such a unit who could doctor up a video toembarass some folks.
she must identify as a sock puppet
A transgender sock puppet.

Don’t blame it on the Air Force. That is some circus event from the Tennessee Air National Guard.
Perhaps the clown in officer garb should have his federal recognition revoked.
Maybe if someone sent a link to the TN TAG he might be able to explain it to the rest of the world.

Try as I might, I don’t see it. And looking at shadows, lighting, and movement, I unfortunately don’t see any evidence for trickery. YMMV
Doesn’t matter. Both of those two shitbirds should have been at rigid position of attention. Why was her hand up in the air in the first place, sock puppet stupidity or not?
“Raise your right hand….”
I get the impression that some folks say the oath with a hand raised, an some at attention.
When I enlisted, we were told to raise our right hand. Every enlistment, reenlistment, and commissioning I have witnessed was with the hand raised.
The approved script for the oath of enlistment calls for the enlistee and officer administering the oath to raise their right hand.

I don’t think is a video mod. Her arm moves when she moves the sock puppet.
Also, she should have been at the position of attention, not executing a hand salute, so there is no excuse to have her hand up by her face.
I say this is real.
Hand salute? WTF you talking about? Who salutes through a whole oath.
She’s clearly holding her right hand up. As one would do when you’re told to “Raise your right hand and repeat after me.” You know, like every time I took the oath (or any oath of office or during courtroom testimony). Now whether said hand is operating a T-Rex puppet or not is the debate.

Wow. I have never seen an officer reading the Oath during a reenlistment.
I have. And I have held the same negative opinion of that each time.
I refuse to read the enlistment oath. I was enlisted once, the oath is that important.
Probably because you don’t see many reenlistments from your mothers basement.

Yes, it’s real. The officer said he failed to do his duty and will do better next time.

Among many military experiences, the most humbling and stirring ones was when a soldier asked me to re-enlist them. Even in the USAR this is deeply important duty and honor for anyone to administer to Oath. For a senior officer to allow such a mockery to occur is WRONG.

Wow… tinfoil hats up.
That’s not remotely funny
