Some of the B's as well, as I flew with a Marine two star once. There are also just a few over 200 furloughees to come back as well.
I should have been more clear that my usage of "excuses" was meant to be more sarcastic than it came across.

It will be interesting how many furloughees do come back.

Like you said, there are a number of B's that are very senior military officers. Quite a few cycle on and off duty (tee hee) various times through the year.
