According to the breakdown of projected 2015 end strength numbers by rank, Majors are getting slammed. Surprise surprise we will gain an O-10, not lose a single O-9 or O-8, and there will be one fewer O-7... 203 O-6's will be gone, 573 O-5's, 1,897 O-4's, 1,332 O-3's, 395 O-2's, and 104 O-1's. Since they have already taken TERA and VSP off the table for 2015, it looks like they will involuntarily separate thousands of officers next year. The above info is from the latest edition of the Air Force Times that just arrived today.

From CMSAF Cody... It looks like all of the talk about 70,000 plus applying is a load of crap. According to Cody they haven't had enough people apply. The following is from a q&a on CMSAF Cody's Facebook page. Thanks for the question, Adam. The numbers are consistent with what we've seen in the past with these programs. We're still short of where we need to be. The pause is tied to pending force structure decisions, not to the number of volunteers we've received so far. We're in a dynamic environment with a lot of moving pieces right now, and we need to evaluate the programs so we can make the best decisions to meet future force structure requirements. Once we know what force structure changes are coming, we'll adjust as necessary and unpause the force management programs. v/r jac

I will add... I'm so glad our sons found your Dos Gringos CD's!
