I ended up as 214's longest serving member in 1976, having joined it in 1971. Served under four squadron commanders and none of them were ever addressed as or even referred to as "boss". I always associated this with FJ squadrons - don't know how true that was.

There is no point of having power if you cannot abuse it.
I was quite pleased to be on the CO's crew when the squadron was tasked with taking a Jaguar out to Nellis for hot weather trials. This involved a weekend in Las Vegas, staying downtown, not on the base. Guess which crew got the trip!
