the license plate thing is ooc where I'm at though, everything is about medals on the license plates, there is a certain medal(s) that will allow free parking at the airport, so I can see that, but I mean every other car is flaunting some kind of medal, too much "look at me," imo

The one that annoys me the most is the Bronze Star one. Like it was some accomplishment. Bitch, your arse sat in the FOB all day in air conditioning and the only reason you got it was because you were a Senior NCO or Officer.

They can't nuke, bomb, or otherwise engage the civilian, criminal element on domestic soil.

Maybe so, but I've noticed ~1/5 of vehicles in N Bossier have that fire union sicker on it somewhere. I've never seen that anywhere else.

Add Parkway to that as well.
I’m from Benton & now reside in South Bossier, parkway has grown substantially in the last 10yrs. Mostly Air Force families here in South Bossier so I can respect the commanders letter & concern for his men & women.

He needs to make the Haughton gate a primary gate. Flip the main gate to Haughton and close the west gate.

Very true about Bronze Star being overawarded especially for officers and senior NCO. If it doesn't have the V device and awardee was a fob dweller than I am not impressed. Cousin was awarded bronze star and as far as I can tell it was for doing some great power point briefings.

I remember back in the day the base had a no go bar list. Don't know if they still have something like this.

It's only news when it's white on minority crime. This is just standard murders, why report them?
