[QUOTE=techcontrol]The base/site we are at dictates our job. I can be responsible for building network connectivity or space shuttle comm, or whatever the mission needs. I work with a lot of different agencies on many different levels.
In retrospect, I rather be working AFOSI (Air Force Office of Special Investigations) and get some job satisfaction.
Here's a pic from my first job as an airborne avionics technician on C-130's. Can you guess where we where or who jumped out?
Looks like cali or Nevada desert.. Jump well it was not a static line jump because the anchor cable are not extended, if it was halo most of the time the crew chief will make sure he clears the rolls or rails before a jump. The pic was taken below 12500ft ASL because the crew is not wearing any 02 mask, and the pic was taken in 2000. Looks like a cargo platform. If something jumped out it was probably a bundle drop.

You are correct, it was an ADS drop. It was Nevada (Red Flag). Here's the picture right before. I could have worded the question better, glad you caught the rollers.

LOL we probably did. I was soo wasted! You're right, its very professional. It was soo funny though, I came on the girls hair and she kept asking me if I had a girlfriend (like she wanted to be her). We waited for her "coworkers" after they were done w/ my friends and they left.
After a few minutes we forgot that one of our friends were in the same bar, we took a cab.. and guess what?!?! Shes back in business!!! LOLOLOL!
