There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Oh! Crosshair Films. I spoke to him on Skype several times because of this video. His work is fantastic.
Nice Video NC
Nice Video NC. Wonder if the pilot making that sunset trap logged it as a
night trap? Back in my day they'd cheat and log that on a "yellow sheet"
as a night trap; Generally sunset landings logged as night traps were called a "pinkie".
Do they even use "yellow sheets" anymore? I try to keep up
to date at work with NPC (Bupers) and learn that a lot has changed
since I retired back in Jan 87. Uniforms changes alone are hard to adjust to.

I love the sunset trap part of that video!!!
As for uniform changes, I agree. I retired in 1997, and since then, the USN has made quite a few changes. A couple years ago, I was up near Knoxville, visiting a reserve center. The PO1 who was showing me around was wearing black pants and a khaki shirt. Looked a lot more like a USMC uniform. Don't like it. Don't like it at all! Nothing at all against the Marines! It's as though they (our wonderful govt.) is wanting to make ALL the military services look the same, and they are NOT!!!! So much for traditions. Am sure the "Crackerjack" uniform will go the way of the dinosaur soon too. What a shame.

Excellent, thanks for that.
