I'm still trying to get used to the new USAF logo...arrrgh!

I'm suprised the more likely "Cannibalize parts-fly-fight-win" wasn't chosen...

BTW, highway signs near the National Museum of the Air Force still call it the "Air Force Museum"!

Any true "Sac Trained Killer" feels the same. Carswell AFB, 1984-1988, B28 / B61 / ALCM / SRAM - Ammo Forever!

Looks like some "gay pride" medal. :***:

Anyway I have never paid any attention to any "slogan" that any service has; frankly the very idea is IMO dumb. It's like the other services got jealous of "Semper Fi" and felt compelled to create one (or many) out of some childish one-upsmanship thing.

Carswell, Hickam, McConnell, Dyess. B47, B52. Didn't kill anyone during those years but in the 60s we nearly went after Cubans and Russians.

Besides, it was my father who was the pilot. I'm a child of the Air Force and SAC and proud of it. Dad flew The Hump in WWII.
