Light blue problem.
 
Whilst sympathizing with this guy's problem, which was possibly caused by the subject of his briefing, I wonder if he will be able to maintain his flying status and pay ?

Very glad he was not wearing dark blue uniform !

Is there supposed to be a link??

Courtney Mil 11th Feb 2016 11:21

Er, what guy?

Faint Blue
 
It would appear it is all to much for one US General

Air Force Major General FAINTS in the middle of a press briefing about $120bn F-35 fighter program.


The bit that was missing previously above !

Unless thing shaved changed in the last 20 years, since I retired, flight pay - actually "Aviation Incentive Pay" goes away sometime after 20 years service unless you're actually in a flying assignment. It's likely this general officer was not on flying pay.

I fainted during an assembly once when I was 13 years old. Never fainted again.

Michael Stipe (REM fame) can faint on a whim.

The first post was obviously a feint.

We had several cadets faint on parade during initial training. Proves you know how to stand perfectly still.

Ahh it's in the ermmm F35 thread BTW

Maybe he just turned around and actually saw her face? :eek:

There's gurning and then there's gurning.

To some folk it comes naturally.

I think I'll use the picture to frighten the grandchildren.

Pontius Navigator 11th Feb 2016 17:52

No her hand slipped.

NutLoose 11th Feb 2016 17:56

It's very rare you see the glove puppeteer in real life, it only happens in slip ups like this.

NutLoose 11th Feb 2016 17:58

That's it love, tickle his sphincter, that'll bring him round.

Why?

Pontius Navigator 11th Feb 2016 20:48

You wouldn't have seen his stars if he was dark blue

Clunk60 11th Feb 2016 21:16

I think I'd faint too if that was stood behind me

Surplus 11th Feb 2016 22:30

Like a bulldog licking pee off a nettle.

NutLoose 12th Feb 2016 01:13

Poor guy, he'd have 5 stars if he worked at MacDonalds.
