Yep. It's 5 weeks of training, crammed into 8 weeks.

They have to add a few days to make sure there’s time to swap stories about “the Zoo” 😉

You’re better than that, Zap. I didn’t take you as one to perpetuate stereotypes.

Gentle ribbing. Didn't mean any harm. I apologize.

I did not take it as being mean. This place is run like the AF. Just look at how our manuals are written .

Geez… what’s with all the sensitivity? Most Zoo types have thicker skin, can take friendly ribbing and dish it out as well.

I had a cappy wearing a USAFA lanyard show up one day, and the first thing out of his mouth… “are you a check FO?” I replied with “are you a Kernal?” He slumped over and said something like “no man, I’m an underachiever, only got to Major…” or something along those lines.

We both busted up laughing and agreed this was gonna be a great trip, and it definitely was.
