Very true. Thanks for clarifying. Also this is from one of the TWG documents:
-----------------------
A senior pilot may volunteer to be displaced (VD) in lieu of a junior pilot in his current category. A pilot who is being voluntarily displaced may:
a. Displace into a category to fill an existing vacancy that his seniority entitles him to hold,
b. Displace a pilot junior to him in the same position in a different base, or
c. Displace a pilot in any category who is junior to the pilot whose displacement he has volunteered to take.
