These 10 Air Force Luxuries Almost Make Airmen Feel Guilty for Being Airmen

3.52K

The United States Air Force gets a lot of (brotherly) hate from its sister branches, many claiming that we Airmen (and women, but big “A” here) have it easy. Though we often try to justify our already awesome branch, the others aren’t always entirely wrong. Here are what some think are the top 10 Air Force luxuries that almost make an airman feel guilty.

And when i was in Vietnam SP5 Mark Kuzinski they also had cold beer. I was used to warm beer and lousy food until we took a bird up to DaNang to drop off some oil samples from our helicopters. We we met some AF guys and one of them asked if Id like a beer. Never one to refuse, I said sure. They may have asked if I wanted it cold and I really said sure, I havent had a cold one since Ive been in Nam. Well he just took a case of beer and hit it with a fire extinguished! Presto, instant cold beer! I was in heaven.

Capt Seid Waddell - You described it well Seid. Yes, we also got to eat at the Navy chow hall in DaNang. First time in Nam i didn't have powered eggs. If my memory serves me right, I think I even had a steak there.

SFC William Farrell, as I recall, the Army chow hall got a monthly budget based upon how many people ate there; the Air Force by how many people were assigned to the unit; and the Navy based upon the number assigned plus the extra number of people that ate there in the previous month.

As a result, the Navy had the largest budget and that got them the best food. At least that was the story I was told by a Marine officer attached to our unit.
