Abolish West Point... and the other service academies

[houndawg]

I wasn't an officer.

There is nothing wrong with being enlisted. I started out as a E-4 in the Army before I attended OCS. If you can't follow, then you have no business trying to lead. I've seen too many 2nd LT's who thought they knew everything about the U.S. Army.

All the cool kids are.

And you started out as an E-1, lower than whale shit, just above a 2nd Lt. (Or in Zs case a 3rd Lt......... )

5th Gen Fighters= 22 Million Dollar Repuke Hard-ons

22 million?

I believe a shiny brand new F-18 comes in at about 18, so 22 is a bargain

Correct me if Im wrong, I did not look up the price of a F-18

It depends on the variant but they start around $29M.

The Super Hornet is closer to $60M.

Back when I was flying the sim in Beaufort (thats around 15 years ago) I remember my cousin telling me the stripped version we sell to Spain was about 18, so thats what stuck in my head

nevertheless, Perfesser Kleak sez a Fifth gen fighter is cheaper than a Hornet
