ANG to AFRES Questions
I don’t see why not, but as all things ANG, it depends on the unit. I have not personally seen a mandate on how long you stay in a unit. If you’ve earned an AD retirement, then I don’t think anyone would get worked up over it. For example, I just PCS’d to a new instate ANG unit. I have 20.5 yrs AD time, so I could retire tomorrow. But I came from an RPA unit, so currency is an issue. Going to a new FTU in December and will regain currency then, but I would also like to get some proficiency. Call me the oddball, but I still enjoy putting the uniform on every morning. I’m likely to hang around for a while, whether that’s as a full-timer or a DSG. When it’s no longer fun, I’m gone.

ANG to AFRES Questions
As far as I know, 20 yrs of AD time is 20 yrs of AD time, regardless of where it’s accrued. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

I asked this question of JFHQ a few months ago. Their belief was it would be tax-free. We did not have anyone press-to-test yet. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

Promotion and PRF Information
Promos up to Maj (since all rated positions are Maj positions)-individual is recommended for promo and signed/submitted by SQ/CC to FSS. Promo then usually goes to JFHQ for state approval. JFHQ then sends to NGB for Fed Rec. Once Fed Rec approved, NGB sends promo order back down thru JFHQ to FSS and SQ/CC. This usually occurs monthly.

ANG. Probably because we do Position Vacancy and ROPMA promotions which doesn’t exist on AD. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

ANG UPT hire- work with AFRC between now and OTS?
What skills do you have that would benefit that unit, i.e. your current AFSC? If you are non-prior, then the chances are slim to none. There is zero benefit for the AFRC unit. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

Anyone used Turo on a TDY and gotten reimbursed?
That needs to be squashed ASAP. Offer to take the FM on a TDY and see if the perspective changes. This is not how an ANG unit should function. Full timers forget their job is to SUPPORT the part timer. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

Promotion and PRF Information
I was a DO of an OSS, then asked to be a SQ/CC of a non flying GSU. Boss asked what I wanted to do after CC stint and I told him I wanted to fly again. Leave for new a/c qual in the fall. Helps me get current again and then I’ll make a decision on retirement then airline or go DSG and airline. Kinda nice to be able to have a little control over my future.

The new NGB RUTA policy...
The new ANGI 36-2001 came out toward the end of April and does make it more difficult for RUTAs. But I have not seen or read anything about only making up 1, but I haven’t finished reading it yet. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
