just got assigned another mission for tomorrow - quick burn

we get to work with the CBP and the Guard together for the first time

I hope we catch a few

Man, you Civil Air Patrol boys are really in the shit.

Hope they're giving you pistols, blood chits, and evasion charts.

Of course it is more enjoyable to have something drop off your aircraft after finding offensive people.

in my last 6 flights we have rounded up about 25 people altogether

not a huge number, but we also got cash and a shitload of Meth

we're not allowed to be armed because we're in a USAF aircraft...and to the best of my knowledge, no one has ever been shot at while flying a mission - the druggies figure it bad for business, however the human smugglers don't care so I take two vests with me

I wear one and sit on the other

Just busting your ballz, it's part of the business.

Happy Hunting!

yep

at least its not a United flight

They should issue you a Warthog.

I see the scene in Apocalypse Now where the choppers are headed into the battle zone and the experienced ones are sitting on their helmets...Gotta protect what counts!

What? Ya mean we ain't played Cowboys and illegals yet?


I'm sure there's a joke in there somewhere

Hold a few benchrest rifle matches near the border.......problem will diminish
