I wonder if the PCS for Chief Dahl is going to lead to terminating there… Are we going to see Mrs. Chief Dahl (AKA Barbie’s mom)? What are Barbie’s parents going to think about him and Leia rooming together? Find out on the next exciting episode of AIR FORCE BLUES! ;@)
Now that’s a contest in one-upmanship that’s bound to get ugly.
“Jeez, y’know, I’m a little too tired to deal with this right now…”
“Tired? Ever worked a twelve, let alone weeks of them on end? Of course not, you’ve got your mandatory crew rest…”
“AARGH”
Since he is a Chief, reguardless of AFSC, he can be the NCOIC of ANY squadron. Barbie thought he was sick now, just wait until his commander introduces Barbie’s father as the squadron’s next Chief!
I can see it Colonel Rowland: “I’d like to introduce Chief Dahl..” (low murmurs in the assembled troops “Wait, Dahl? Isn’t that Barbie’s last name?” or “Holy crap, its Barbie’s dad..” and the like). Hilarity will ensue with jokes about how far the apple really _can_ fall from the tree. Of course, Leia will be conducting the pre-brief for everybody in the squadron prior to Chief Dahl’s arrival…
T’would be funny if Barbie’s dad & his mom are divorced, and dad married some hot young(er) thing and all the guys in the squadron were lusting after “Barbie’s new mom.” That could be a substantial source of embarrassment for Barbie, and of course it would open up just tons of other possibilities.
(My parents are divorced, and every time my dad would start dating someone, after a few weeks/months we’d be introduced to dad’s new lady friend. Dad would wind up taking us to some event or dinner or something and my smart-ass brother would have commentary about this woman, and he’d never refer to her by name, he’d just call her “our new mom” which was a freaking crackup in and of itself. Once, we’re sitting at some event and my brother leans over to me and says “Our new mom wears too much perfume..” and it was all I could do not to shoot beer out my nose all over the people in front of us. There’s some story arc fodder for ya, Farva..)
No matter what, its gonna be a riot. And knowing how long a PCS move takes from orders to move-complete, this will be a Damocles sword hanging over Barbie for “months”
As an E-9 crew chief, Chief Dahl will probably go to OSS as the chief of Maintenance Supervision. These are the guys who monitor the life-cycles of thousands of components on a fighter jet, and can ground the damn thing because it is not Cat 1 (ready to fly). Barbie is gonna get Cat 2/3′d from his own dad. Then he’s gonna beg like a bitch to get cleared up. Seen it happen… Pilot’s start to potentially lose that flight-pay, and the shit rolls downhill.
I think it is more so he is upset about his dad being a Crew Chief, not that he is Enlisted if I remember earlier comics correctly
But where will they live…the house next door?
is Dad going to be Barbies crew chief? Or Leia’s? Bwah ha ha ha ha ha
Doubt it… E-9s don’t run around the flight line playing crew chief, they have better things to do!
Indeed. It’s their job to annoy those who actually DO run around the flight line fixing planes.
Sweet, Dad’s gonna kick some Zero ass
YES! This is gonna be good!
So I’m definitely at Laughlin for a CAP activity…
lol tiny place.
Good thing no one in my family is in the military.
standing by for epic lulz
At least Barbie’s dad is a lifer.

Fun!
What is Barbie complaining about? His Dad is not a pontificating churl like mine, or is he?
Was expected after yesterday’s comic, but still funny
.
Btw, someone has trolled the wiki page…
And I don’t mean RobertM
HA! Awesome! Can’t wait to see this storyline unfold!

Poor Barbie…it was good while it lasted.
The possibilities are endless and I can’t WAIT to see where this goes…

maybe it will be one of those two month (or less) notice things like we always seem to get.
