Sgt Big Red asked:


Two California Highway Patrol Officers were conducting speeding enforcement on I-15, just north of the Marine Corps Air Station at Miramar. One of the officers was using a hand held radar device to check speeding vehicles approaching the crest of a hill.
The officers were suddenly surprised when the radar gun began reading 300 miles per hour. The officer attempted to reset the radar gun, but it would not reset and then turned off. Just then a deafening roar over the treetops revealed that the radar had in fact locked on to a USMC F/A-18 Hornet which was engaged in a low flying exercise near the location.
Back at the CHPs Headquarters the Patrol Captain fired off a complaint to the USMC Base Commander.
The reply came back in true USMC style: “Thank you for your letter. We can now complete the file on this incident. You may be interested to know that the tactical computer in the Hornet had detected the presence of, and subsequently locked on to, your hostile radar equipment and automatically sent a jamming signal back to it, which is why it shut down.
Furthermore, an Air-to-Ground missile aboard the fully armed aircraft had also automatically locked on to your equipment location. Fortunately, the Marine Pilot flying the Hornet recognized the situation for what it was, quickly responded to the missile system alert status and was able to override the automated defense system before the missile was launched to destroy the hostile radar position.
The pilot also suggests you cover your mouths when cussing at them, since the video systems on these jets are very high tech. Sergeant Johnson, the officer holding the radar gun, should get his dentist to check his left rear molar. It appears the filling is loose. Also, the snap is broken on his holster.
Thank you for your concern.”

Amber asked:


My hubby is getting stationed at MCAS Miramar in California. We are from Michigan. I know the military reimburse for a move, but I have also heard they pay up front for the move. San Diego living is pretty expensive and we must pay our first months rent and a deposit on an apartment and the uhaul, gas, etc. We would prefer if the military could pay up front for our move. We dont care if we have to do the drive or the military hires someone for us. Is ut possible for the military to prepay for our move?

He hasn’t got to his PDS yet to talk to a TMO.

Gumdrop Girl asked:


A sailor was stationed at Naval Consolidated Brig Miramar some years ago, but the sailor has a criminal conviction that leads me to believe the sailor was actually imprisoned. What’s the easiest way to verify whether or not the sailor was imprisoned in the brig? The sailor may be a pathological liar, so it is useless to ask directly. Can records be obtained?

He has been one month late twice in the last 9 months. In the air force there is a ‘first shirt’ who would talk to him and find out what his problem is. However, I cannot find out who to contact in the Marines. Does anyone know?

Amber asked:


My hubby is getting stationed at MCAS Miramar. We are looking into housing that is very close to the base. We would prefer off-base housing. But on-base would be ok, if its out last option. Does anyboy know of any apartments or housing that is fairly close to the base. Preferebly within 10-15 minutes if possible. If not, does anybody know any other alternatives.
