Correction, that is BUFF
Big Ugly Flying Fucker

Dad was a B52 structural mechanic/welder/fabricator in SAC and in various tropical ports of call during the Vietnam conflict.

I've seen some AF bases.

Could be different bases come up with different terms. My source was the maintenance crew from Ellsworth AFB

Ok, don't quite know what this thread devolved into, but i'm a vet. Army, 1984-2009. Iraq 2003-2004. I missed out on Desert Storm, I was part of the Opfor at the National Training Center for that dance, lol! I had a slice element from my team in the Bosnia deal, and had a forward team in Kuwait in 2002 in prep for the invasion. Started of a 13B, Cannon Crewmember, reclassified in 89 to a 63H, Track Vehicle repairer.

Thanks for your service

Then grab a saw & get moving.
BTW, I have a big chunk of virgin timber in the interior of AK for sale - on the road system & close to a hub for a reasonable price.

Wanna be JJ or a Dick? I can help. : )

"What am i capable of that I do not know yet? - And, could I truly enjoy my own company for an entire year? And, was I equal to everything that this wild land could throw at me? I had seen it's mood in late spring, Summer, and early Fall, but...What about the Winter? Would i love the isolation then?"

This was my "Getting back on that horse" photo. 2 days prior, I fell off a log & cut my arm on a very sharp log peeler. Got 40+ stiches. You can see the bandage on my arm holding the rope. Had to get back to work....lol
