120 days of Escort. No Summer riding for this Monkey...

Plus I will still be eligible to deploy when my Tempo band hits in November.

Too bad so Sad, I signed the contract.

Conversely, Mountain Biking in CO is year round. I love this place. My job kicks ass and my Co Workers are awesome.

remember, point the gun away from yourself prior to pulling the trigger

 

[JohnE]

No guns as an escort. Try to enjoy yourself, it could be worse...

 

[Red Rabbit]

Hey, are you still in? Where you stationed at?

 

[DirtMcGirk]

I know some escorts in Tahoe who make $600 per trick. Just sayin, you could make some money, monkey.

 

[Sandwich]

5 dolla make you holla?

 

[JohnE]

Yup, Edwards AFB CA. 90 miles north or LA, 75 miles south of Bakersfield, right next to...nothing.

What exactly is "escort"? Non-military monkeys want to know.

[johnbryanpeters]

Good luck, hope you find what you're seeking.

 

[ultraNoob]

All the escorting I have done envolved either a pistol, MP5, or something bigger.... what do you Air Force types consider "escorting"?

I think its like a "distraction target" ... sort of like taking a slower rider along when you're riding in bear country.










I kid, I kid.

Be safe.

walking the planes into their hangars

Escorting, AF style, generally involves watching third country nationals (TCNs), hired as general labor through some contractor, as they work. If the **** hits the fan, you are to call the cops, who then come running and commence to whip ass. Or clean up the mess.

It is generally one of the most mind numbingly boring yet most possibly hazardous things out there.

Not as far as I know...or that I have been exposed to. Weapons can be taken away easily from individuals not trained in weapons retention. I had to go to a shovel/pick axe fight between 2 TCNs once. Escort was a tiny female. Good stuff...

Sort of like the best way to get beer bottles emptied.

Yeah - you'd *think* that would work on the surface of it... but you try feeding these kids for a week.

All of a sudden child labor looks really expensive.

 

[jimmydean]

The only brown people the AF kills are from 30,000+ feet up.

They know better than to give AF guys guns unless they go through 2 years of school for it.

I am an AF guy. I have a gun, yet the last time I went through two years of school was first grade...

That's my oldest. He's 7-1/2 now and he eats like a friggin' horse.

I don't bother with my bike from Nov -> May.

 

[CRoss]

I have not touched a bike since July, except riding the road bike taking my dog for a run. I do not miss it either.

Good times. I am going up to Keystone this weekend. Good place to ride (snowboard)?

No weapon. I get to watch Hajis dig ditches and clean ****. there is an opening for Convoy.

Some one in my shop got it. I could trade for it, but it would mean Afghanistan and a longer deployment.

not to mention IED's and and angry Hajis.

 

[skatetokil]

What the **** kind of backward ass libertarian are you? No offense to the military peoples in the audience. . .

 

[Red Rabbit]

The kind that puts personal development before of political views.

I was going nowhere in life. I need this.

 

[JohnE]

Be careful what you wish for amigo...

 

[Red Rabbit]

What was your job?

 

[JohnE]

Security Forces...still.

 

[Red Rabbit]

Good times. Tsgt? Msgt?

 

[JohnE]
