blue angels, t-birds grounded

Blue Angels were never necessary for recruitment purposes......The military has always had a lot more people interested in becoming a pilot than they could actually accept.

Bait and switch. 18yo walks in to the Navy recruiter saying they want to be a Blue Angel. Great, do we have a plan for you! Sign right here and after a few short years of service and some school paid for by the GI Bill you'll be ready for flight training in Pensacola! 6 months later he/she is scrubbing toilets/doing laundry/washing dishes on some destroyer off the coast of Shitbagistan.

Now theyre scaling back or canceling fleet week and blaming it on the sequester cuts, so let the finger pointing continue.
