If you want to send a clear message, don't go, don't engage, don't respond to surveys, don't show up to base visits, none of it. Have self respect, that means stop entertaining antisocials. Show apathy until it is no longer warranted, it is really that simple.
CE Woolman, Bethune, Kelleher and Anderson were worth your time, our leadership and modern executive teams for that matter are NONE of that.
Fly the jet, go home. Enjoy family, close friends, hobbies and be thankful you aren't a M-F drone making 1/10th the money. You get one life, live it!

I went on a reserve month because it paid a little extra and just like CQ I used it to break up a chunk of reserve to force usage and rest issues. Just because you attend doesn’t mean you need to drink the koolaid. Parts of it were entertaining, parts were informative, and parts were pretty gag-worthy. Basically what I expected going in.
