Boeing unveils its T-38 replacement
What he said, it's just a number in the training environment. We need something durable, and a plane designed to land on carriers would probably count. I do think it needs and afterburner though, so studs can learn the value of left hand placement.

ANG baby, the only way. Best flying I'll ever have, best people I'll ever meet, have seen things nobody else will. I can't wait to retire.

The T-38 isn't impressive either, it's a trainer, that is all.

Selective Continuation to 20 years
For F sake don't accept any of this, separate and go to the ARC and get promoted. Get a job you are worth, don't just do this because it is easy.

Drinking in uniform/on duty
Think of me more as "Been there,done that, seen the repercussions" kind of guy, regs be damned. And I'm not your mother, I will not feel sorry for you if this is disregarded.

Hangout at a rescue unit.
No, they probably see it all the time, especially if your resume is strong, you should be OK. Let the hiring guys or the SQ/CC know you will be there, that will help immensely.

Drinking in uniform/on duty
Just wait until the end of the day, don't push it, you'll ruin it for everyone. At least, what is already not ruined.

Where were you on September 11, 2001?
T-38's, DLF. Watched the second airplane hit on the then TV in the flight room, still stepped to my contact solo. Crew chief told me to shut down, didn't know why, went back inside Andre realized we were at war. Every former fighter guy in the building was pissed they were in AETC at the time, made an impression on me......don't be a former fighter guy in AETC.

11B to 11F in the Guard/Reserve?
Short answer, it depends. I have seen a select few B-1 guys get into F-16 units (Buckley/Ft Worth) but that's a rarity, but it can be done. Your issue is going to be all the other fighter guys around you getting out, they will get picked above you just because they are a proven entity, a quick TX with no IFF. Find the unit that is always hurting (Homestead) and test the waters there.
