I JUST watched the PJ interview from a few years back not even 5 mins ago and then I see this 😂

[@kirramcdowell]

One of the best videos and loved the in depth questions. New sub, thanks!

[@daga534]

How many push-ups, pulls ups, sit-ups can you do, and 1.5 mile time?

I was paid flight pay, food allowance ( forget the term), combat pay (Vietnam) per diem and tax exemption for being in a combat zone. I was a Loadmaster, with the 8th squadron at McChord. Do you have the additional pay during your training pipeline? Perhaps not combat pay in the pipeline..

[@mysterymayhem7020]

Shout out to McChord

Aaron needs to watch his facial expressions and body language. You can tell hes not listening and just waiting to talk.

[@AirmanVision]

That's totally understandable. We both had the same view you guys have in the video. so when I was asking him the question, it was right in front of him. I mostly elaborate on my question for the viewers. On top of him having the question in front of him already, he also went over them before we filmed as well so I'm sure he had an idea of what his answer would be already, which might be why you think he looks like he isn't listening. I never felt like he wasn't listening to me during the whole interview. I thought he did amazing.

@@AirmanVision Nice to know a little criticism and the admins start to block peoples freedom of speech.

[@wwells2448]

I think this probably has more to do with the "vlog type" edits. Instead of the conversation flowing normally, like it would in a podcast, there are edits/cuts/etc. that then cause the video to be trimmed to match as well. It does affect the expressions, and the "waiting to talk" impression because that natural conversational flow is reduced.

[@johnkamot3237]

@@wwells2448 The vlog type edits are far and few in between. If you also watch any of OnesReady episodes you can see clearly what im talking about. Pick any episode with him....ANY OF IT.
