Hi B, I am the one that said running off half cocked on a Wild-assed guess is a waste of time
Sorry for my long winded novel here but just trying to share some of my sar experiences with the new members and I have no problem at all with people coming up with thier own senarios but we have to use what's best for all concerned and be willing to help even if we don't agree sometimes to the way its being done............AL
B What you are saying and what others are reading are a bit conflicting.
If you want to participate in a forum like this, where at some time in the future, we will be dealing with real life and death situations in SAR missions, then, for your sake, if you honestly want to be a member of this forum, you will have to stop talking in riddles. Everyone here is very serious about what our responsibilities are now, and will likely be in the future. The imagery we are working with is very minimal. The imagery we will be working with in the future will be much different.
Your statements of wild ass this and wild ass that, do not sit well with others here that are very serious about their tasks. Many of them have been here for hundres of days and many hundreds of hours.
Al was very kind in the way he tried to explain all of this to you. Anyone is welcome here. We need all the eyes we can get....but this is not some forum where you can just come in and start makeing statements like you have. There are about one million other forums where you can do that...........but, please not here. This is serious business. By all means, we need everyone we can get, so stay on if you would like to help out.
We have a very organized chain of command. It is necessary for this type of mission. This is not your every day forum. This chain of command will make the decission upon whether a new member is sincere in our joint efforts. FYI.........there is no room here for ego trips, comments to anyone of a deragtory nature, and NO WILD ASS GUESSES.............you will need to adjust your vocabulary if you want to stay here. I am a new member also. I have learned this in just a couple of weeks. If you are looking for fun and games............this is NOT the place. This will be my last comment to you should you feel the need to respond. NO response indicates you really do want to help out. My best regards, you had some very good thoughts.......just need to express them in a discussion, not a statement.
