Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is a better basis for a system of government than career politicians, PAC money, and the CIA.

14 years ago, I was at McGuire’s Irish bar in Destin with the entire EOD community for the annual EOD weekend. Everyone was there, including my entire command team.

“Why haven’t you reenlisted yet,” someone asked me over a beer?

“I’ll do it right now,” I replied.

My commander was going to give me the oath, but someone shouted, “we need a flag!”

One of the employees grabbed this one and I reenlisted right then and there with a beer in my hand.

Was it the correct way to do things? Probably not.

Was it the coolest way to reenlist?

To me it was. I think about it every time I’m outside the building.

[Office of the Secretary of the Air Force @SecAFOfficial]

I am aware of recent reports involving an Air Force officer protesting at the United States Capitol. Let me be clear: I expect every Airman and Guardian to comply with all laws and policies governing personal conduct, political participation, and the wear of the uniform. Americans place their trust in us. We cannot, and will not, compromise the trust of the Nation.

Good order and discipline are critical to the DAF’s mission, and rigorously maintaining the highest standards of conduct on & off duty are an absolute must for all Airmen and Guardians.

The Department takes allegations of misconduct seriously, including any that might undermine the nonpartisan nature of our military. Pursuant to a thorough investigation - which will proceed unimpeded - commanders will ensure appropriate disposition when holding service members accountable in accordance with military law and due process.

The grave of an American pilot buried by Imperial Japanese troops.

The sign reads:

"Sleeping here, a brave air-hero who lost youth and happiness for his Mother land. July 25 - Nippon Army".
