The Air Force is the only one of the military branches involved in President Donald Trump's mandated border mission to not disclose publicly the number of service members or what units they're coming from.
No names, no unit numbers, no way to definitively recognize any given individual at a glance?
So… hypothetically… someone who’s not part of one of the active units, but who has the uniform, the ability to act the part, and the information required to make it happen, might be able to blend in with the oppressors during a military operation? Hmm.
o but pfft don’t listen to me. I’m just a wild-talking stoner with ADHD
If someone’s got all that, then they’re active military members. Also, the squadron would instantly recognize you as a new face and you’d suddenly become the center of attention within minutes. Even if you have a convincing story, everyone wants to know where you sit in the chain of command. Hell, the way civilians stand would make you stick out.
I literally have every piece of issued flight gear I was given, including my helmet and O2 hook up… I’ve been retired for 12 years. They don’t take it back and give it to someone else when you leave.
If you’ve been retired 12 years, then we served at the same time… It also means that your uniform (ABU) is no longer in service. Even if the ABU was still in service, id have a lot of work to do before I could blend in again… And I’m sure you would as well 😂
I wore flight suits, mostly… But my point was that if someone had served recently they’d still have all their gear. The gear isn’t the hard part of the OPs proposal.
