@imacoony let me tell you, i heard an old usaf officer who said what the public has seen or heard of only scratches the surface of what is either developed or being developed. god only knows what we will see you your lifetime.
i have a stupid question..the soldiers seen in sg1 the other sg teams..would they be air force personnel or would they be soldiers from the regular army?? it's just im not american and have no idea on how the american air force works..whether they'd have ground troops or not etc....
@Phil483282 They're Air Force personnel, or Airmen, as they're called. They're not soldiers which would be Army personnel. Basically in the U.S. there are Soldiers (Army), Sailors (Navy), Airmen (Air Force), Marines (Marine Corps) and Guardsmen (Coast Guard). That being said the U.S. Air Force does have special forces who do ground operations, and most SGC airmen were special forces trained. Also, just as an FYI, less than 5% of air force personnel actually fly aircraft ;)
No surprise that the show helped recruitment. The character of Sam Carter alone helped the most; a smart, competent, professional and human face to Air force women! It also helped get out the message that The USAF really, actually DOES have Special Forces who do ground operations too!
Yeah, he actually said it wrong. SG-1's record is "the longest running American science fiction show"... also, saying that it outran the original Star Trek is kind of lame... because, though a great show, it only lasted 3 seasons. :) But, still, this is a cool clip.
LOL one of the worst mistake they did was in the pilot! there was a major, he had major insignia on his lapels but had tech sergeant rank on his shoulders lol. I LOVE THIS SHOW!!!
This is completely stupid, people joining the air force because they want to be like they favorite actors. so like them i will brainwash and enslave the people of this planet and kill who opposes me because my favorite character is Ba'al, pff whatever...
They are great... anyway.. am i the only one to think that the guy at the beginning is identical to Major Davies??? I don't know..he doesn't really look like him, but i don't know he kind resembles him... don't know...
well congrats from me too. so it´s really the longest running propaganda show eva or what?...shame on them and all the other productions, which let the military istrumentalize their work to recrute some poor people who don´t know better or simply have no other choice than go fight wars for rich people.
Someone get this sent to the Video Flight of the nearest Communications Squadron to fix the audio sync problem for crying out loud :P

does the air force have it's own tv network? or is this a show just for air force members?

That would be awesome if that was real. I would become an American citizen just for the chance to get into the Stargate program.

Stargate is the longest continually running sci-fi show. Dr. Who has been running for more years total, but it has stopped and started several times.

This isn't the longest running scifi show. Doctor Who has run for far longer.
Someone hasn't done their research...
