fecav8r,

You've got a reputation for being a good guy, but ... I'm sure you're smart enough to realize that you can Extend your vacation during Reserve months and still use up all (and extra) of your vacation hours. I have done it MANY times.

Vacation during Reserve months is VERY CONFUSING. I recommend everyone call their futures scheduler and talk with them.

And ... I agree than we could lose big time if we EVER open the vacation section during negotiations.
