Flyfish and bros- Well, I must admit I am more of a packrat than I thougt... I do have the actual hard copy 26 Jul 06 VSP message and the dated MPF letter about the program- I was on base the day it came out and pack ratted it w/ my VSP stuff- the one before any of the website FAQs at AFPC. That's the only direct good news.

I'll fax it to anyone interested or mail copies- but, I'll quote paragraph 20. first:
" Transitional Benefits: Pre-separation counseling; employment and transitional assitance; transportation and relocation assistance"

It doesn't say medical coverage. When I look up involuntary/RIF bennies at AFPC, it does call out directly the medical:
"18. TRANSITIONAL BENEFITS: OFFICERS SELECTED FOR SEPARATION BY THE RIF BOARD ARE ENTITLED TO THE FOLLOWING TRANSITIONAL BENEFITS: 1) PRE-SEPARATION COUNSELING; 2) GENERAL TRANSITION SERVICES (INCLUDING RELOCATION ASSISTANCE, JOB COUNSELING AND FINANCIAL COUNSELING); 3) VERIFICATION OF MILITARY EXPERIENCE AND TRAINING (DD FORM 2586); 4) UNEMPLOYMENT COMPENSATION (VARIES BY STATE IN WHICH FILED); 5) 180 DAYS OF EXTENDED MEDICAL CARE FOR FAMILY AND MEMBER; 6) 20 DAYS PERMISSIVE TDY FOR EMPLOYMENT AND RELOCATION ACTIVITIES (30 FOR OVERSEAS RETURNEES); 7) 2ND OPPORTUNITY TO ENROLL IN THE MONTGOMERY GI BILL; 8) NAF HIRING PREFERENCE FOR MEMBER OR SPOUSE; 9) PERMISSIVE TDY TO ATTEND DEPARTMENT OF LABOR TAP WORKSHOP IF NOT OFFERED LOCALLY"

Again- that last quote was from the Involuntary Sep Programs/RIFs. Sorry- I don't have it anywhere that we have any extended medical- again- My records at Tricare and my ID card on my DOS gave me bennies- actual mileage my vary- I was a Jan 07 DOS w/ the VSP.
