Glossing over the article, sounds like Perry flew on a C5 or C141 around CONUS for a couple of years.

That makes him little more than a glorified bus driver.

True but when the shooing starts we get dropped off and they turn around and go back home to Alice.

You don't have to jump out of the plane when they turn back, they just open the doors to see if anyone is crazy enough too...

So you must have been the kid at the back of the bus, the bus-driver always had to watch.

That would actually be respectable if he did something other then ferry crap around CONUS. Ferry Perry?

Personally, I woudln't bring up my service record at all given the current age in which there's alot of enlisted who've done a helluva lot more in their contract then he did. I'm proud of what I did, but when it comes to "show and tell", I just keep my mouth shut, cause i didn't have it as bad as anyone serving in Iraq or Afganistan.
