Unless you read the notes and argue they apply. I successfully avoided a requal ADSC with note 1b.
b. All manned or unmanned pilots, navigators, and air battle managers who began aviation service after 30 September 1997 will not incur any additional Advanced Flying Training (AFT)/Instructor Qualification ADSCs which extend beyond 6 or 10 years as applicable, of continuous or cumulative rated service. Rated service begins at the completion of training and awarding of wings for the rated specialty. They will still incur Permanent Change of Station (PCS), Professional Military Education (PME), and other non-AFT related ADSCs.-

At one point a few years back, my SQ had 42 LtCols.
That's not a typo.
Wait, what? Was one of them the snacko?

It's not really a loophole. The Roth TSP is analogous to a Roth 401K available at lots of civilian companies. (And actually theirs is often better with matching)
So yes, you can get more money under the Roth umbrella using both accounts, and you should.

Buy American.
There's a reason the f150 is the #1 selling truck in the world.
Nice soundbite. Toyota makes 4 of the top 10 Most American vehicles. #5 is the Tundra. 7 of the top 10 are Honda or Toyota. As recently as 2011, the Tundra was more "American" than the F-150.
So if you want American-made in 2014, just don't buy GM or Dodge.
(In fairness, yes, I know there are other indexes with different weightings that end up with different results. Point is nothing is "American" or "Foreign" anymore.) My GM truck was built in Indiana. So was my Toyota Highlander.)

Had a 98 Tacoma for years. Beat the hell out of it off-road and it never missed a beat. If I had the $$ and didn't mind the size (bigger than Ford/GMC), I'd get a Tundra. As it is, my next truck will be another Tacoma. My current GMC has been a pain.

At least he has cool aviators.

No. 17,500 + 5,500.

Unless the reenlistees have a habit of making mountains out of molehills in other situations and he doesn't want them in his unit.

Take the denial and go to something other than a slick 130 that you can stay in for a tour or three. Being is a dying community is bad enough, worse for a nav.

If you need a moral waiver, you're probably screwed for now. Those were easier to get when we had two large scale shooting wars going on.
So give it a year and we'll have at least two shooting wars again.
-
Arsenal. So both? Not Quicken or that kinda thing.
-
I have a trust. I got it so I can share my stuff easier.
Suppressors aren't a big deal crossing state lines/moving, assuming you're moving to a suppressor-friendly state SBR is a much bigger pain. I won't get any SBRs until I'm settled somewhere.
-
I do think he should have been there. As much as he wants to pretend it's not, this is his war now. He's chosen this ill-fated advisor mission as the way forward. He needs to take a very personal interest in the success, failures, and hardships of those involved in the mission.
-
I get he should have been there, but I would never want any President at any event that was personal for me. Funeral, wedding, bar mitzvah... he brings entirely too much pain for everyone else there to be worth whatever hollow statement. So maybe the family was glad he was playing golf.

Friday at 1630: "Hey Major, would you please get comm to update my rank in the global?" "Yessir!"
Friday at 1900: "Hey comm MSgt, the general wants his rank fixed now!"
Saturday at 0700: "Airman, get into work right now and fix the global!!"
Monday at 0729: "General sir, your email is fixed as you asked!"

I'm doing the same track, same term. I plan to use every flying schedule, exercise, deployment, database, air show, and open house I've worked on for my 7500 hours. As long as you can classify it as initiating, planning, executing, monitoring, controlling, or closing, it sounds like you'll be ok.
-
Why would you rule it out? Push the button and make them tell you no. I have no idea what the 11F manning is right now (besides low), but I certainly wouldn't make their decision for them.
-
If they'll sit in finance and fix my DTS/PCS voucher/DITY promptly via email, I say bring em on.
But I agree, it's more social experiment on a captive populace by the California Democrat than a realistic future.

The fees you've read about are for early withdrawals. As long as you don't cash out your TSP and put it in your pocket before 59.5, you're ok.

No. This is not true. Again, the only rating I had prior to taking the ATP written was a PPL. 2 months later I took the practical. I currently have an ATP, and I never had a commercial certificate.
You cropped out his "But for military" part, which I'm almost certain is how you pulled off your PPL-ATP. So you didn't even do the mil-comp commercial written?
-
Edit: Nevermind - I was wrong.

That's the SB 15 brace he mentioned. Google it.

No way I can cover them all, but from this page:
IFS: Introductory Flight Screening - flying a DA-20 at Pueblo for a few rides.
GCS: Ground Control Station - the box you'll sit in
HO: Holloman AFB, NM
UDM: Unit Deployment Manager - responsible for getting deployers ready and out the door
LRE: Launch and Recovery Element - the guys at the deployed location that land and takeoff the RPA
FTU: Flying Training Unit - your schoolhouse to learn to fly your RPA
MCE: Mission Control Element - the guys back in the US that fly the mission portion of the RPA flight
That'll get you started.
