Flipster needs no defending by me .. he is more than capable of putting his point across ... however he may not wish to state some things as others may think he is bull****ting ..
So for those that don't know, he is extremely experienced in AT Ops both as an operator and a flight commander. He was (is ?) somewhat famous for his robust positions taken whilst detachment commander on more than one rotation during OEF & OIF.
Not always the easiest boss to work for, but always a good one to have behind you when support was needed.
He's been there, got the T-shirt, and had the arguments (in both directions).
