ok a question from the bleachers.......
USAF loyalty is to CIC, whomever that may be, depending on elections, you have a chain of command and UCMJ that polices behaviour and loyalty.
Now you are flying for a "private" outfit, lets say owners of a river named outfit, call it "The Ohio" and owner of a social meida outfit call it "Footbook" plus a news type outfit call it "Birdsong"decide they don't like CIC. They own majority shareholding in a couple of these companies with a couple on thousands aircraft and pilots from many countries. What happens when owners decide democratic process and population refuse to give them the result they want and act on it. What then ?
