They can but they have to hang out in the trailers outside the long house.

No...they have no honor in what they do.  Only on the field of battle can one prove himself worthy to enter by his deeds.  Of course, if Odin plays xbox...who knows

An interesting side note:  The response to an IFE, physiologically, is exactly the same whether flying an unmanned or manned aircraft.

IFE?

Let me run that through my acronym to Military Gobbledy Gook Speak to English.

IFE -> Incoming Fire Event -> Being shot at

Did my translator get it right?

He is saying that when I spill a cup of coffee in my keyboard, which then shorts a circuit and shuts off the engine, I experience the same physiological reaction as Sully over the Hudson when he got a facefull of a flock of geese.

No. If you aren't a weapon-slain warrior you don't go to Valhall. Full stop.

Dang it.

Be honest, Incoming Fire Event sounds like something the military bureaucrats would come up with, doesn't it?

Don't tell that to the Orthodox Odinists, you'll quickly run into the reason for the schism between them and the Evangelical Odinists.

Thanks.   I didn’t want to be the guy to call bullshit but sheesh... some people don’t make it easy. .

Anyone who’s been through a tough checkride, knows that 2 solid hours of IFE’s in the Sim, is far Worse than a real one during flight.

Thank you for your service Troutman. Sincerely.   I wish I could trade jobs with you every other month.

Death with a weapon in your hands.  That's the rule.  There was also a caveat that you had to be whole.  If you lost a hand in battle but lived, you were no longer destined for Valhalla.  You could still die a warriors death in your next battle and be welcomed in Odin's Hall, but not Valhalla.

There is no Valhalla. It’s a lie they tell men to make it easier for them to accept death.

It’s like the white folks version of Hajis boo talking each other into how they are gonna get virgins in paradise if they blow themselves up.

The mere concept was made up by boy loving cave dwellers.

Hard pass

Not a drone operator:  Any cognitive human being thinks a lot life before and after taking it.  How you do it doesn't matter a whole lot in the long run.  OP you show how fucking little you are in this post.

They can, but only if they do something like fire/call for fire on their own position if they are being overrun, or pick up a rifle while defending the perimeter.  Not all drone pilots are operating out of places like Nellis...

I've always wondered how the "Drone pilots are inferior because they can't see their enemy or they're evil because they can't be sure it's the enemy" crowds feel about artillery guys who basically hear a number over the phone and then blow up the spot associated with that number.

Ever heard of counter-battery fire?  Defending you guns against ground attack?  Plus, not all artillerymen are back with the guns....

Sim rides are night and day difference between the man and unmanned worlds.  Nothing compares to a type ride with the FAA on board.

A catastrophic engine failure in the actual plane is physically the same to the pilot because your brain wants to do everything possible to ensure the best possible outcome.
