Good news for me! AF Eglin AFB FL
- Thread starter Gradyh
- Start date
oh yes. just ordered a tune and a new bracket for the shifter. thinking I'm gonna save up for a paxton or TT kit.
We'll instead of a GT500, I am going to become a father!
This!
ALS was a joke and so is the Levitow Award.
Atleast half of the airmen in my class with line numbers were fat slobs on PT waivers barely deployable with little to no common sense but could test pretty well.
Sound familiar:
I went through ALS 2007.

Here is my advice...for what its worth. My guess is your going to get about $225 a month pay bump. Let's say your find your car and it is going to be around $35K. You know your finances and your wife has a secure job. You should be able to afford the car.
But...is now the time to get it? Is graduation from ALS a reason? Have your finished your CCAF? If so; have your finished your undergraduate degree? If so; have you finished your graduate degree. I would put off getting the GT500 and set another personal goal to shot for. Yes...graduating ALS is a deal...but is it a big deal? All AF enlisted have to attend in order to put on E-5. Only after I obtained my goal would I reward myself with a GT500. Good luck and thanks for serving!
100% disagree! Attending Professional Military Education is not a joke; it is mandatory. It builds a foundation on how to become a leader. If you think it was a joke...you missed the point. And you are also off target about the Levitow award. For someone to earn Top Honors in any setting takes hard work. Those who do that should be rewarded. Just my 2 cents...
I stand by what I said ALS was not hard, and damn near impossible to flunk even if your the biggest dirtbag in the AF.
As far as PME of course its essential to become a leader.
My post was more intended about the fat out of shape Airmen who attend ALS, and the inflated EPR system of the AF which allows this to happen.
But its sure as hell isn't a West Point:lol:
E-2 with a terminator here! At Eglin..
hahahah Yea yea. but they changed the standards in ALS, it is much harder no longer a show up and pass ordeal.
I remember seeing it everyday on my way to lunch.... car is gorgeous lol
I was the 3rd class with the new cirriculum if that tells you anything.
Sooooo you have never been to SOS then eh? For the record though, I had a blast there.

What's wrong with Elgin? All the AF bases I was ever on were much nicer than Camp Lejeune.
