Seeing this on AF Retirement Facebook: "Just got an e-mail from FSS/CC, pasted below. New matrix should be posted on myPers at 1400 CST... Ladies/Gentlemen-- We received updates on Force Management programs late yesterday. Updated eligibility matrices will be posted on myPers <https://gum-crm.csd.disa.mil/app/landing> on today, 3 Apr 14 at approximately 1400 CST. As expected, eligibility for various programs, to include involuntary programs, has changed. As you'll see on the enlisted involuntary programs, many AFSCs/grades are closed and no longer eligible for the Enlisted Review Board. Please review this information closely and disseminate to your personnel once it’s available. The first significant update is that AFPC received expanded waiver authority from the Secretary of the Air Force. A PSDM providing more specific guidance is TBD; however, AFPC now has the authority to waive the following service commitments: - Full waiver for ADSC for Aviation Retention Pay - Undergraduate Flying Training (up to 72 months of an ADSC) - Up to 36 months of Advanced Flying Training (to include Pilot or Flying Instructor Training/Qualification) - AFIT (up to 36 months) - Medical Residency Training (up to 24 months) - Medical Special Pays and Bonuses (up to 48 months w/recoupment) There will be a formal announcement to make us all aware of these expanded opportunities. A coordinated media campaign will accompany the formal announcement and targeted messages will be sent to those officers who had their application returned because AFPC did not have the appropriate waiver authority. The individual messages will direct Airmen to updated matrices and revised PSDMs to determine their eligibility and application instructions. The second significant update involves involuntary and program eligibility for officers and enlisted. On the enlisted side, I have already requested information from AFPC regarding updated eligibility listings for the involuntary enlisted boards. The officer FSB matrix remains about the same and the officer voluntary sep eligibility shows a number of AFSC/Year Groups as no longer eligible. The MPS will continue to monitor the system for changes to officer eligibility." Finally, some news!!! Hope it holds up.

Very disappointing indeed. I just sat through the same speech. Sadly, it doesn't surprise me that the senior leaders screened/censored the questions. It definitely wasn't a "Town Hall" meeting. What a broken organization...reminds me of case studies I've read on Enron where employees were intimidated and never allowed to speak up. Sorry dude, I wish they would have let you ask your question.

Very interesting news. If you don't mind me asking, what is the source? Was this sent out via e-mail?
