    I'm sure you're a good dude and the AF has hosed you for sure, but guess what, most of us have been hosed at some point. It doesn't give us carte blanche to ditch our standards. Imagine an AF in which all officers had your attitude. I despise a lot of what I have to go through in the AF, but the men and women I get to serve with make it tolerable.

    Maybe no one on here wants to say it, or maybe this board has turned into something where only a bunch of whiners come to complain, but your statement here makes me feel like the AF got this one right. I feel like anyone willing to take $69K under erroneous circumstances is someone that should never have been an officer in the first place. When you say "trick the AF to give you" that's what you're getting at, so twist it however else you want. When they don't pay our travel voucher is due to ineptitude, not malacious intentions.

    Again, sorry your career got cut short. Sorry you're one of the individuals paying for poor leadership at the top, but based on your reactions, you are not what will help fix the AF going forward.

    I hope you find a great job on the outside. I could be way off base here, and if so I apologise. If I'm not, I'm sure you and many others on here will reply with something incredibly mature proving me right. In that case, I still wish you the best, I just wish if for you outside of the guard/reserves because you don't need to be serving anymore.

    I am grateful for your service, however. You've done more than the overwhelming majority, so thank you!

     

    I'd say you are off base simply because you don't seem to know the backstory on duck.    He has wanted out of the AF and found a way to make it happen.  The AF didn't "get this right".  They didn't cut ducks career shorter than he wanted.    He's not jaded that they are dismissing him.   It's what he wanted.   It's his briar patch.  

  2. I do t think it matters.  Whether they had a a continuation board or not.... they aren't going to go be sep pay to anyone

     

      likely, they selectively continued everyone without the need of a board.   Blanket continuation for everyone.   If they did not do that, then they are dumber than we all thoUght.

    Ok I had to look back in my emails.  Your discharge benefits code is under “special benefits package.” When you go to Airman and Family Readiness, they will look up that code, which also authorizes you six months of healthcare under TAMP. 

     

    MPF has a master list of codes that qualify for the 20 days of permissive TDY under the special benefits package listed above. Give them the code that A&FRC gave you and they will validate the 20 days. 

     

    Edit: I had to go to MPF and get it added to DEERS, THEN Separations would validate/approve the 20 days. 

     

    Edit 2: it was the Separation code, which was JGB for us. That’s what I had to get added to DEERS before pressing on. 

    JGB stands for Just Got Booted

  4. Dick will most likely be continued to 20 years as a captain with the option to take it or get processed after 6 months.   

     

    No no way does the Air Force "force" him out with it not being his choice.   If they did that, it's just like being RIFd or VSPd and they would owe him approx $100k
