I agree. That is my practice when I write to an audience that might not know what I'm talking about. No reason here to say GMC stands for Grabowsky
Motor Company.

Our USAF rule was to always show the full definition during the first use
in a document, followed by the definition/acronym in parentheses.
Subsequent use of the acronym was acceptable. In a very long document,
best practice was to again use the full definition in the final summary. I
still try to follow that rule -- even 41 years after leaving USAF. (Does
anyone know what "USAF" stands for?) :-)

I retired from USAF at end of February 1981. I was
pretty sure it meant United States Air Force (confirmed).
However, I thought I remembered that one predecessor,
the USAAF, was US Air FORCES (also confirmed).

Been a long time now, huh?

Ok Guys, you have to remember that while not personally involved, I sailed a number of long passages with people that were. Some fun History here.
In 1909, the US Signal Corps bought a Wright Flyer and that was the start USASCA
“US Army Signal Corps Air”. They didn’t go any farther then.
In 1926, the air wing was separated from the signal corps and the USAAC was official, that was the USAAC.
 
Since we're all waxing pedantic, it's only an acronym if it's pronounced as a word. Otherwise it's just an abbreviation. 🙂

God's great air farce had me -mostly part time - for 22 years, 66 to 88. Mostly in combat comm squadrons, we had our own TLAs (Three Letter
Acronyms). Recently a kid asked why would you do that, I showed him the bill for my pacemaker. Rack Rate $54,000. Medicare rate 14,000. After
tricare, my cost $0. Samesame for Paula's new knee. Plus they give me 600 bucks and change every month. Plus they taught me the basics of my
profession. The difference between existing and living as I age.

Hi, Johnny!

Any time in the 3rd herd here in OKC? 71-75 for me.

Same for my 2 pacemakers and a recent one for my wife.

Son and son-in-law also USAF retired.
