Retirement / Separation Considerations
You can also carry leave over to AFRC(at least for palace front/chase). The problem would be finding a set of 30+ day orders in the future to use/attach them to, but if you promote later on you can sell it back for more money.... Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk

Sounds like you already know where you are going, but you can get 7 days PTDY for interviews in the ARC.

What's wrong with the Air Force?
They found the only thing worse than putting a navigator in charge of things, a total shoe clerk. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using Tapatalk

C-130 Afghan Air Advisor
I believe the reserves were getting an outsized portion of the asspain, but a stink has been made and the ANG can expect some more to follow. Gen Jackson has stated that they are pursuing an option to staff it with contractors, but it sounds like bunk to me. Nobody in ARC is safe and the timeline I was briefed on had this program going out to 2020. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using Tapatalk

C-130 Afghan Air Advisor
At my AFRC 130 unit, the OG developed guidelines on how to dole out the pain. They made a spreadsheet of the instructors (which was not made available to the squadron at large) with a timeline going back over a decade and listed all the deployments the member had done, both in and out of the unit. Some kind of partial credit was given if they were in a formal school during the unit's deployment. When the requirement dropped, they went in order of who had gone the least with exemptions for members in dwell, the CC/DO, and maybe a few others. When given the tasking, you could accept, retire, or go IRR/IMA. Management was not willing to sign a 1288 to allow transfer to another unit, and the subtext was that you wouldn't be welcomed back by the current administration if you went IRR/IMA. This bullshit made up 69% of the water cooler talk at the unit for the past year. Seems like most units went through 3-5 bodies to get a taker. Anyone in ARC who had anything to do with signing on to this hogshit needs to get dick/ punched.

I'd have signed a 13/15/20 year ADSC as a cadet, and I hate the AF. I probably would have even been excited about it: guaranteed retirement!

ANG: Be Careful What You Ask For
Haven't seen 1 year non-vols, but this year -130 reserve units have been getting 6 month deployments to AFG to be advisors. With the spin-up training and accrued leave, it is more like 9 months. No thanks.

Study: Nuclear Force Feeling 'Burnout' from Work
I saw the crazy O-6 astronaut lady at KNGP 3.5 years after her cross-country diaper-wearing affair, still on the payroll for Uncle Sam. I guess the wheels turn slowly sometimes.
- WTF? (**NSFW**)

Same experience for me. I was assured by AD and ARC that any medical issues would be covered after the fact while I was waiting to be gained in DEERS for a week or so, but I left AD without anything proving I had tricare/TAMP.
