Career progression after being passed over?
Yes. Commissioned service. What if you did like 14 years as an E, commissioned, then as a 2 year captain they could boot you out if it is not commissioned service.

Career progression after being passed over?
Yeah. Go out. Get a few awards. Try to be a yes man or be what your boss needs, get promoted and you will be able to go the distance no problem. Right now as a captain, according to your stats provided, you should be able to go to 28 years total service legally if continued.

Is that a thing in the reserves for a captain? Sounds awful.

Commissioned service according to you, you are only at shy of 12 years. Good for another 8 brah. Serve.

Airline job or return to mil
Then there are USEDRA exempt jobs in guard and reserve that you could do to make it to 20

I’ve heard but don’t know personally that training is USERRA exempt. So if you did 6 month requal in C17, for example, you could go 5.5 years back in.

Wow. Fingers strikes again. The lies that this propagates. Let’s destroy all the military airplanes on sticks or airplanes in museums because they were probably flown by someone who at one time might have said something that might possibly maybe might have been something that might maybe have been taken wrong by someone else and construed as offensive. Even though it wasn’t meant that way. Propagating this PC culture is sick. And disrespectful of those who have gone before.

Thanks for assuming intent again Homestar. I’m going to assume that you are going to make claims for my statements again without retraction or reflection. But I was asking an actual question. Where does the diversity stop. Skin color is as ambiguous of a physical trait as eye color causing a diverse life experience with which a line could be drawn. You state federally protected class as your answer. Should that be it? Should those even be in there? I love Morgan Freeman’s take on it. When are we just viewed as people with different life experiences and abilities. Why have a black history month? You are going to relegate a race’s history to a month? Why? Forced equality of outcome and perceived diversity outcome causes issues. That’s the bottom line.

I’m arguing for equality of opportunity within military standards and reason which is what we currently have. I’m arguing that the equality of outcome that we also have is damaging us. How many diversity groups do we have to make sure are represented? Sex and skin color are the big ones. But why do we stop there? Why not regional, state, hair color, eye color, dialect, accent, parents income, type of school attended. I mean the possibilities are endless and we are making it about individual traits instead of accomplishment and effectiveness. Then claiming that when it isn’t that way there is some sort of systematic racism or sexism or religious bias when there just isn’t. Everyone isn’t a victim.

Completely disagree. The equality of opportunity is to sacrifice some things the military seems appropriate that you are asking for in order to be apart of the standardized military organization. There is the equality of opportunity to join for those willing. Remember it’s still an all volunteer force.
