June 6Jun 6 Baseop’rs, We’ve got 2 positions on the west coast (NorCal and Hawaii) available for a Category E IMA position (non flying) with Civil Air Patrol -USAF. We provide congressionally mandated oversight of Civil Air Patrol and serve as liaisons between CAP and the Air Force. Unique job, must be self-motived. All the regular readiness items (CBTs and fitness test…). Great opportunity to make a difference with motivated CAP cadets. Pros Very flexible, low/no threat of deployment MPA is normally available if you want to be more involved. O-5 promotion possible (I’m proof of that) with PME and above average participation. Limited paid Category B IMA slots for flying or leaderships positions. Cons Can’t buy Tricare or transfer the post 9-11 GI bill. Low/no pay. Expect 10-15 days of MPA for travel outside your local area per year. More MPA is normally available if you want to do more. Rest of your points are for no pay. It’s an IMA job. You’ll have to be able to work independently and get stuff done. Takes about a year to get it figured out. Works better if you live close to a base. Must live in NorCal or Hawaii. Must have 3 years retainability. No UIFs. PM me if you want to talk about it. Thanks for reading this far. -Ed
