Return of Friday shirts / patches
read the AFI closely. As quoted above, "when wearing the ABU coat..." and Chapter 5 is all about the ABU anyway. Nowhere is this stipulated when wearing Friday shirts with the FDU (Chapter 8). "8.7. Undergarments. Undergarments are required with the FDU and DFDU. During flight operations all undergarments, to include cold weather undergarments, must be cotton or fire retardant material and must be on the safe to fly list maintained by Aircrew Flight Equipment (AFE). Undershirts will be crewneck style and tan in color. Exception: Wing Commanders may authorize Airmen to wear a designated unit standardized color undershirt on Fridays, or during special events."

no, that stipulation only applies to the ABUs.

FY 14 Force Management Program (RIF, VSP, TERA)
if the question is about accomplishing a curtailment, I don't think those are that cosmic. It doesn't mean a position is being cut, it means someone is asking to be released from an assignment/location early. I've seen others do this from OCONUS locations. It's just a request to curtail the length of the current assignment. So in his case, since that ADSC exceeded his UPT ADSC, he needs to curtail to be released. ETA: the correct term in AFI 36-2110 is a "stabilized tour." Para 1.4 talks about waivers, suggest you start there.

FY 14 Force Management Program (RIF, VSP, TERA)
have you met with him to ask the status of your application? Make him tell you to your face that he's slow-rolling it, or conversely you calling him out may actually get him to act in a timely manner.

that will be the last status update until you either get word that it's approved or denied (at least, that was my experience 2 months ago with my request for separation process)

Afghan Plane Crash Kills 2 ISAF Troops, Contractor
to be clear, this one sounds like the last one - AKA NOT an MC-12, but an Army variant. either way, still sucks.

Deployed again....from my deployment?
and YOU have to sign the dwell reduction waiver paperwork to say you agreed to it. So don't sign it.

Air Force Pilot Makes Emergency Landing In Tallahassee
I was on that SIB. Damn lucky no one died...one of the M-28 dudes was thrown and pinned underneath the helo as it rolled. Luckily there was a foot of dust he sank into and the PJs were able to just pull him out. They did a CDI in lieu of an AIB for the HH-60 one, so I have no idea how to find a copy of that to post here, sorry.

Turning down an assignment but still have commitment
two dudes have done this in Rescue - turned down PCS orders. They were required to set a date of separation of their ADSC expiration date...neither got 365s, but they continued to deploy as normal in the community until their time was up.

Space A(vailable) Info
thread bump. I'm looking to space a to both Japan and Europe if possible. Can this be done without travelling back through CONUS between destinations? Just wondering how often Europe and Asia are linked via flights.

I wonder how much deserved chiefing will go on for those unaware they need WG/CC and SQ/CC approval for most of these things and need to wait for it.
