Navy cutting pilot training by 13 percent in Pensacola, elsewhere

Well, the low attrition rate was due to the fact that the training command
stopped attriting people because we needed them. The Navy could not get
enough people to want to aviators. One possible answer is that "Topgun" has
lots its recruiting appeal. Maybe we should get a new movie called TST
(time sensitive targeting). It could feature an airplane holding over head
Iraq for 6 hours and still recovery with all of its ordnance. Sorry for the
sarcasm, but the cold war image of the military is a little out of date with
the new generation.
