10-4. 135 is probably my best option, if I can find the work around here.

No, I'm not a pilot in the guard. I'm a navigator. I have been fortunate enough to stay on active duty orders (AGR) for a few years now, but my orders end early next year. It is possible, however, that I may be able to extend them for another year after that. If given that chance, I will stay on orders and be pretty close to the 1500 by the end of 2015, so that's the best case scenario for me. If not, then I will do some time building while guard bumming to pay the bills.
