  There's everything around here.  And you're right, doesn't matter.

  Poor warrant officers. Always left out in the cold when it comes to rank competitions. 

  Eta: this reminds me. Once Ojo and I were on CP and there was a WO4. She asked me if he was some sort of cadet. I was like Ahhhhh! Homeboy is way fancier than that!

  I've seen a lot of military surprise homecomings. It wouldn't work on me. I always have my back to the corner and my face to the door. Looking for terrorists, criminals, various other threats, and husbands.

  I didn't even know the rank of warrant officer existed until after I was married and T was gearing up for his second deployment.  And when I did hear the term I asked whether they fell above or below a Major.  My mind was blown when I learned they're a whole other breed.

  I'm still a little hazy on the details on this one. We don't have that kind 'round these parts.

  No warrant officers in the AF.  In fact, I think the army is the only branch that still has them.

  lol, I really know nothing about other branches.  It's just that H and I were having this conversation last week when a friend asked about it.  Obviously I paid very close attention

  I ETA'd with a funny Ojo story above. It was only that day I learned that the AF doesn't have them, lol. I only know "my" branch too!
