Now, I'll wait for all the protests saying "I've never sharp-shooted the system; I only go to reserves on my days off" What a joke!
Things have changed since 1985!

Talk to those guys and see what current AFRC/ANG pilots are doing.
P.S. In case you forgot, we are conducting combat operations still! And have been for over 13 years!
