Retirement / Separation Considerations
It may be worthwhile to call your CC and: A-make sure you haven’t officially been notified. If the clock is running you need to act. If you haven’t been officially notified you have time. B-drop the “hint,” in no uncertain terms, that you plan to 3-day opt if you are officially notified. C-profit?

It started with your shoes, then your water. Now the TSA wants your snacks.
It’s like explaining physics to a monkey ... doesn’t matter how much effort you put in, they’ll watch and listen intently .... then go right back to flinging shit at you.

My drivers license expires when I’m 65. You can get non-DL state ID that never expires. It’s not rocket surgery.

Upgrade was surprisingly good.- Military appreciation has jumped the shark
Glad to hear you can predict the future. Document it all. Send it all to the va. You have no idea what minor issue now may be the bane of your existence in 20 years. I used to have similar thoughts about folks “milking” the va. But the way the va operates is so completely foreign to military folks (and military docs) that I think the best way is to throw as much (legitimate) poo at the wall as possible and see what sticks. Sleep apnea? No idea. Get a sleep study and find out. GERD? if you have recurrent heartburn that’s worth 10-20%. Knee issues to the point you have a hard time going up stairs? Not service related. One time plantar fasciitis that has completely healed, 10%. Broken digits that don’t work right anymore with reems of X-rays and pt, not service connected. It completely seems like there is zero rhyme or reason to the answers the va gives....until you start to peel back the onion a bit and wrap your head around a completely foreign way of doing business. It helps to have good help. But until it all starts making sense, throw as much (legitimate) stuff at the va as possible.- Columbus T-38 down
Pfffftt..... Usaf doesn’t give a fuck about a-models or the folks flying them. At any level- No more group commanders? Air Force tests new wing design that gives squadron commanders more leeway
