After not thinking twice about signing the ten year ADSC after UPT I am now 180 out approaching the ACCP. $1,200 or whatever it works out to a month is chump change compared to having options. But to each his own. For those committed to twenty, enjoy the money! From a friend of mine at Sheppard - he mentioned that everyone who signed it found themselves with a "good deal" 365 within the next 6-9 months. Coincidence?
Between seeing TAMI21 firsthand as a Lt in a fighter squadron, tons of dudes getting non-vol'd to non-flying gigs or worthless deployments (not talking about MC-12 or flying related stuff!) it seems signing is playing with fire.
EVERY 0-4 I personally know in my MWS punched to the guard at the end of their ADSC. I literally don't know one who's stayed.
It's really too bad too. I absolutely love my PRIMARY job as an 11F and I plan to stay as long as they'll let me fly fighters. Doesn't look like it'll be twenty years but I'll try.
