When my son was a toddler, every time he saw a VTANG bird (which was often), he'd point & say "geen moun-un boys!" 🙃

Sanders' staff gets veterans information & access & actively works with VTNG & VTANG to develop the Veterans Outreach Program connecting vets to local officials, business leaders, clergy, healthcare providers, & more to address their needs, including issues like PTSD and traumatic brain injuries.

VTANG doing their thang
May 27, 2026 at 4:52 PM
Would be actually hilarious if we
got a Second Vermont Republic and the neoconfederates didn’t even try to make a token effort to ask for the VTANG arsenal back because they think F-35s are girly
who could have imagined that liberals would get beyond visual range air combat in the national divorce

Now if we're talking a "Balkanized US Civil War" scenario, which frankly seems more likely right now than thermonuclear doomsday, there is *nobody in North America* who is gonna fuck around in VTANG airspace.

the good news is Phil Scott has more sense than throwing in with MAGA and VTANG is the best in the country

It's a short trip from Burlington, VT - where the VTANG has F-35s - to the Canadian Border.
(60 miles by car, 6 minutes at 650mph)
Not *quite* a threat of invasion—when you drill down on exactly what's happening here—but clearly walking up to that line by way of *telling* Canada (not asking for a negotiation on the matter) that the United States will in the future violate Canadian sovereignty in ways that are currently illegal.
US warns it will send fighter jets into Canadian airspace if F-35 deal fails
Cost of F-35 advanced fighter jet program has risen by $8 billion in the last three years

Bernie has always voted to bring that sweet MIC money home to VT. Plus rarely bites against 2A. All politics is local and he always votes to bring money (and F-35s) to the Burlington airport, where there is a VTANG wing.

2/3 Without something like the teeth of a gear, you are guaranteed to have a completely inelastic rotational (and linear) collision. With no way to change direction, the spool can only slow down until vtang = vcm. So what would a partially elastic rotational collision look like?

The Green Mountain Boys (VTANG) operate F-35s out of Burlington Intl in VT. 5th gen stealth fighters would be extremely useful for strikes to pacify an allied nation, but they're operating out of the town that elected Bernie Sanders mayor. It's also very close to Canada.

I'll note both VTANG & MAANG have had joint duties serving as interceptors for the northeast for years. Both used to fly dedicated interceptor aircraft but all of those duties eventually devolved to F-15s & F-16s & now their successor the F-35.
July 11, 2025 at 3:31 PM
Absolutely maddening to live close enough to Fenway that I can HEAR when MAANG F-15s or VTANG F-35s do a flyover before a game, but far enough away that I can't SEE them.

Scoop: US official tells me F-35As from VTANG 158th FW are heading down to Caribbean to take part in Operation Southern Spear. This brings a lot of extra capabilities to that mission.
F-35A Joint Strike Fighters Deploying To Caribbean
The F-35s from the Vermont Air National Guard will join the growing U.S. force massed in the Caribbean aimed largely at the Maduro regime.

How did you pick your username?

Needed a domain name for portfolio website. Shorter the better. “vtang” was taken.
Other ideas were “vtangy” and “vtango”. Went with “tange” since I can’t tango and “tangy” sounded too derpy for my resume.

Years ago, I was waiting for my flight home from VT at Burlington’s airport, which also happens to be home to the Green Mountain boys (VTANG). Squadron members walked in, just returned from a sortie, and I watched an old man watching them, a glimmer in his eye.

Fuck yeah, it was Chuck Yeager.
Screw "never meeting your heroes." What were some times you met your heroes and they were super cool?
