Bayou Renaissance Man: Let's do the airplane shuffle!

This is where I will take sides with the Army. Seems the Air Force in it's elevated view of itself as the provider of all transport has seriously dicked the dog on this one. The Army has different requirements than the Air Force. But the Fast Mover, Fighter Mafia run Junior Service has lost sight of a lot of things. I work for the Air Force at Edwards AFB so I do see some of the lack of practical application of anything here.
It seems to me if you are tasked with certain things as a result of demanding the Army have no practical fixed wing assets then man up Blue Suiters. No offense but you need to loose being overly impressed with yourselves and get to it.
My indicator is handing a Air Police Member a Blue Retired ID with PO1(E6) on it and being addressed as sir. My Retired Air Force coworkers are addressed as Staff Sergeant, Tech Sergeant, Master Sergeant Etc................................................
