Weapons stashes, backroom dealings, national networks of contacts, budgets larger than you'd think, convoluted accounting tricks, and an indecipherable lingo only insiders understand! McFly Bolda teaches Muff the secret handshake and let's slip the secrets of the shady world of the Air National Guard.
