  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

    Hello all, VERY long time no see. How are you?

    Update on Me.

    Tabbed ones have it the worst. The cadre intentionally "fail" them on PT tests at RIP pending to see if they can make them quit. The mind games started as soon as we arrived from Airborne. Just check my AKO, no orders yet. Appearently 11Bs aren't needed in the Army :(

    Update on Me.

    E-5s go to RIP now too. I wouldn't mind NC...I have a lot of friends there, plus my first duty station in the Air Force was Seymour Johnson AFB in Goldsboro, so it'd be familiar territory.

    Update on Me.

    I left the Air Force in August 2006, lived the civilian life for a year, then joined the Army in September 2007. Went to Warrior Transition Course, Infantry OSUT, Airborne, ended up at RIP pending but I cannot WAIT to get off of Fort Benning. Kinda sick of this post :P Hope everyone is...

    Def Expo India 2006

    That "future Indian fighter" looks a little fishy. Also, the 2nd indigenous aircraft looks as if it were based off of a Dassault product.

    Cope India 2006

    The US wouldn't cease to be a superpower. Not only will your Air and Naval defenses be battered down, the USAF and USN would be decimating the soldiers who were able to find their way to their posts with precision air strikes. Our own ground forces would be virtually untouched, and you're...

    Most surprising and most important military advancement?

    Another outstanding work done on America's need to adjust to a highly mobile, independent (decentralized) small units is the books Insurgent Tactics.

    Def Expo India 2006

    Awesome pictures! I know next to nothing of India's defense industry. Does your country have the capability to design, engineer, manufacture, and maintain it's own tanks, aircraft, vessels, etc.? Do you import?

    Cope India 2006

    Not only that, but the F-16 is hardly the best air-superiority aircraft in the world. The F-15 is. :D Some part of me wonders if some USAF brass is using this as reason for Raptors, or at least more. Fat cats in the Pentagon are sneaky enough to sacrifice the pride and honor of the poor...
