    Statistically, you're better off maxing out your TSP as early as you can anyway, instead of trying to plan it so you put in your maximum dollar in December. (3.33, repeating, of course.) https://pressroom.vanguard.com/content/nonindexed/7.23.2012_Dollar-cost_Averaging.pdf And yes, TSP will take care of any overage. Just be careful if you have more than one account (i.e. airline and TSP). Neither knows the other exists and both will allow you to contribute up to the maximum, then it's on you to withdraw the overage.
  2. Know your laws. follow them to the T, and don't sweat it. They're not going to risk a USERRA lawsuit.
  3. Got it for my Moto X running 5.1. Overall I like it. I've been using a homemade spreadsheet with the same functions, but this one fits in my pocket. I did have one recurring crash and I sent a report to Google about it. It crashed if I used the back button while in the TDY TRACKER function. Of course I can't recreate it now. Will Google send you the crash report and log files?
  4. A helo guy at AIS? You must be even more bored than the Herk guys! Make sure you brief that ALSF-2 on your next approach. For a real answer: https://armypubs.army.mil/doctrine/DR_pubs/dr_a/pdf/fm3_04x240.pdf

    I had to personally send my Navy medal to the Awards guy at MPF, then it shows up on vMPF and my 214. If you didn't do that, I don't think it's going to show up.
  6. One of the loads: https://fox6now.com/2015/10/02/he-is-my-hero-u-s-air-force-member-with-wisconsin-roots-killed-in-c-130-crash-in-afghanistan/
  7. That's a problem I hope to have sooner than later. Even then, since we're covered by employer sponsored retirement plans, we hit the traditional IRA deductible limits (118K) before we hit the Roth limits (183-193K) anyway.
  8. Have we narrowed it down to it must be a Dyess crew? Or was that picture only meant to represent a generic J?
  9. Thanks gents. For now, I'll use the Roth variety IRA and 401K, no matter which one I use. The TSP seems like the winner as long as I'm using Roths. When I switch to Traditional, state taxes make the airline 401K mo betta.
  10. For the airline guys (or anybody with a decent 401K option): How do you practically handle your TSP alongside your 401K? I'm thinking about not contributing anything to my 401K (no match at my airline) and putting my entire Guard paycheck into the TSP. TSP has lower expense ratios and I'll invest in broad market index funds in the TSP or the 401K. What am I overlooking in my plan? Any other techniques?
  11. There are higher jumbo limits if you're in the one of these counties: https://www.fhfa.gov/DataTools/Downloads/Documents/Conforming-Loan-Limits/Counties_with_increases_cy2015.pdf https://www.benefits.va.gov/homeloans/purchaseco_loan_limits.asp edit: If your NY location is accurate, looks like you're stuck with the $417K if you don't want to make a down payment. I'm surprised no NY counties made the 2015 list.
  12. As of January, AFFSA was saying it's a standoff between FAA and DOD. DOD expects waivers, FAA says not this time.
  13. E for Situational Awareness/Headwork.
  14. So what if it's a lesbian couple? They're both "military mothers," right?
  15. Don't be silly. Dads don't need to bond with their babies.
  16. Can you attach a zip file? (I can't tell on my iPad if you can.) If you can, zip it and attach that.
  17. DSG = Drill Status Guardsman = traditional part timer.
  18. Flew with one of our ANG 0-6 types last week. He said recent conferences appear to point towards a move like you describe. Fighters on the coasts with RPAs, airlift, and tankers scattered throughout.
  19. A NJANG pilot told me this weekend they have a hard time finding guys because nobody wants to live in Atlantic City. Convince them you'll move up there and maybe that'll help your chances.
  20. Nevermind - next answer is mo betta. Good luck at the interview.
  21. Anybody ever use this? https://smartdocs.dfas.mil/voucher/ Just saw it on myPay - maybe it'll do what you need.
  22. Can't do it quite that early.
  23. They can't make you extend your ADSC. No telling what they'll do with you in the meantime though. Might leave you in place, might PCS you sans a new ADSC.
