Yes. it will be a very similar experience to the Guard, especially if the KC-135 unit is Unit-equipped (Owns their airplanes separate from AD). People don't usually talk specifically about the Reserves because we usually get lumped-in with the "Guard" talk. At this point you should be casting your net to Guard AND Reserve units far and wide. A unit that shares airplanes with AD will look and act more like an AD unit, but still far better than going AD, where you will have very little control over where you end up in 10 years.
