Guys, this is totally food for thought, and nothing to base any decisions on, but, look forward another year. The AF clams they will be shedding another 14k people in FY '09 (for an ultimate goal of 316k total active duty). That will equate to ~2800 officers lost during the FY '09 Force Shaping. If you are denied seperation in FY '08, I'll bet you have a very good chance of seperation in FY '09. There is hope beyond FY '08 if you are denied. That's what I keep telling myself.

Again, total theory on my part, but it makes sense at least on paper.
