mvsgas Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 (edited) I wish I was clever enough to come up with that pick, but I just saw it in "bookface" and had to share. Like this one and lastly, the complete devalue of the bronze star. Now some pics click to enlarge JSF formation Two F-35A Lightning IIs from the 33rd Fighter Wing soar over Eglin Air Force Base's range during the unit’s first joint strike fighter formation flight April 10. Lt. Col. Eric Smith, 58th Fighter Squadron director of operations, flew the lead aircraft while Marine Maj Joseph Bachmann, Fighter Attack Training Squadron 501 aircraft maintenance officer, flew wingman. The pilots, both first in their service qualified to fly the 5th generation aircraft, were validating pilot syllabus objectives in preparation for future training. The 33rd FW is responsible for F-35 A/B/C pilot and maintainer training for the Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force, and in the future, at least eight coalition partners. (U.S. Air Force photo/Capt.

AlphaOneSix Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 No, and now every useless, non mission essential person is trying to get it. http://www.af.mil/news/story.asp?id=123299369 Just my opinion, sorry That's what "V"-devices are for. I lost all faith in how commendations are awarded long long ago, so all I can really say is more power to her, and congrats. Remember, it was her chain of command that awarded it to her, she didn't give it to herself. Besides, I never thought of getting paid as "useless" or "non-essential". Also, you'll note that all awards have been awarded more often "per capita" in every conflict as time goes on...which means when my daughter grows up, if she joins the military, she can expect to have more medals than will fit on her uniform!

Demokrator Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Truly outstanding stuff. Cameraman Killed by Bomb on US Aircraft Carrier - A camerman on board an aircraft carrier is filming the incoming planes land, some damged, others not. He was unlucky enough to be filming at the time a bomb had been released by a plane that had just landed. The bomb had in fact been released in the air but had failed to detach from the plane. The impact of the landing dislodged the armed bomb, setting it free to bounce down the runway. The bomb the detonates. Aerial Combat Footage - Impressive Shots [Full Resolution]. United States Aircraft shooting German Raiders in a New Year's Day attack (year unknown). This was called Luftwaffe's Black Monday. Pictures of German aircraft being shot down and bursting into flames in flight. Shots of various German aircraft shot down including a nazi pilot jumping out of his plane. B24 Bomber Shot Down - Amazing Footage, [Full Resolution]. Cameras capture the incredible moment when a B24 Bomber plane is hit and crashing in flames. It also shows various shots of B24 bombers flying over Japanese held islands in the Pacific ocean, near the Caroline islands. HMS Barham Explodes and Sinks, 1941 [Full Resolution]. Dramatic Newsreel footage captured the sinking of the Queen Elizabeth Battleship. A salvo of torpedoes from a German submarine struck from close range on HMS Barham on November 25, 1941 in the Mediterranean. Within four minutes, the battleship had listed over to Port and the ships magazines had exploded, sinking the battleship and killing 863 men. The terrifying explosion was caught on film by Pathe cameraman John Turner who was on an adjacent ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demokrator Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Very hard to watch. Trapped Pilot Drowns in Sinking Cockpit (1958) - Captured on Camera [HD]. The aircraft piloted by Commander J D Russell coming in to land on HMS Victorious in the Solent, Hampshire, it touches down, hooks onto the arrester wires and the plane then rolls along the deck. A rescue helicopter lowers a man down to try and help Commander Russell. But the waves lap over the cockpit and the aircraft sinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockeyes Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 (edited) Watch out for birds Aircraft: BOMBARDIER INC DHC-8-402 During the approach to land, the flight crew reported a bird strike to the leading edge of the right wing. The crew declared an emergency and made an uneventful landing at their destination. A postaccident examination of the airplane revealed a 12-inch-diameter hole in the leading edge of the right wing centered between the right engine nacelle and the right wing tip. The damaged area was covered in bird remains, which were identified as the remains of a Common Loon (Gavia immer). The average weight for the species is about 10.9 pounds.
