He already said he spent 15 years on Active Duty.

Sorry to hear about this brother. With a war on this sounds even more nutty. I hope it works out for you.

if im not mistaken i think his full time slot makes him civillian during the week and a guardsmen during the drill weekends.

thats how the reserves works im not 100% about the guard.

Now that I have cooled off some ...

Blackpony - I had about 8 years of 'active duty' with the regular AF. I have another 7 years of 'active duty' with the Guard (full time since 9-11)
If allowed to stay I would get a 20 year retirement just like an AF blue suiter.

04texas - They say I can't stay around ... I am taking up a slot and there are junior officers behind me that need to get promoted ... I am dumbfounded to say the least ...

We'll see what happens ... thanks for the suggestions and kind words.

I hope it all works out. The military can't manage personnel to save their azz. While on active duty in a Special Operations slot the stupid Army passed me over for promotion. Instead of going peacefully I requested a special promotion board and they promoted me. I figured it would be tough to make my next and last promotion so I decided to get a MS under my belt. It didn't happen because of deployments so with my file looking pretty much the same as when I was passed over twice ----- the next board promotes me BELOW the zone. I have stopped trying to figure them out.

When I had about 19 years in they send me to a dead end assignment (my only non-flying job) and hint that I should retire. I decide to do just that and find a great civilian job and they STOP LOSS me.

I finished with 24 years and enjoyed about 23 1/2. :THUMBSUP:

B3, what is your AFSC? If you are thinking of moving, the 927 ARS is setting up down here at MacDill and I know that they are hiring.


Just a thought

Try Warner Robins AFB also. You may find something in J-Stars since the GA ANG flys there in a blended unit.

Wilco. Thanks Bill.
