This article about the Top Gun remake kinda rankles-apparently they removed the Japanese and Taiwanese flag patches from Maverick's jacket to kowtow to the Chinese(one of the movie's producers is the Chinese Tencent Pictures). As reporter Mark McKinnon tweeted this movie is "Communist Party of China approved": https://www.dailycaller.com/20...gs-concession-china/ Is nothing sacred(Goose is probably rolling in his grave). __________________________ | |||

Yes, very clear. And I won't be watching the movie. At all, much less paying for it. "America is at that awkward stage.

Newsflash, Hollywood is 50% owned by the Chinese. They also make pretty much every SIG Romeo Sight and all the computers / phones we use. Anyway, just keeping it real. | |||

So Hollywood being run by liberal pedophiles wasnt a deal breaker for you, but a patch does it??? Come on man... its gonna have afterburners and Jennifer Connelly’s tits, thats good enough.

In regards to time in service, back in 2017 Col. Edmund Bowen retired from the USMC as the longest serving Marine after 43 years of duty. https://www.tactical-life.com/...ving-marine-retires/ "I won't be wronged, I won't be insulted, and I won't be laid a hand on.

Yeah, but they're our leftist pedophiles. This is the ChiComs attempting to influence our politics and culture. Not having it. I'm out. "America is at that awkward stage.

totally agree they missed the timeframe by like 15 years sure there are 'old' O6s in the service but they are waaay beyond routine / line flight status i could see him as an instructor 'obi wan' type. But actually flying in combat?? YGBFKM plenty of my classmates / former colleagues (class of '90) are retiring now as 06s and they are old geezers as far as the military is concerned. my relative is an '88 grad (pilot) and recently retires. hadn't touched a stick in years. but ... suspension of disbelief and all that... --------------------------------------- Proverbs 27:17 - As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another. | |||
