TSRAGR,
I punched with 12 yrs. It was scary having apps in for 6 months and no calls. I decided to try a job fair and got 3 interviews within 2 months (fractional, cargo, major). Once I got within two months of terminal the calls were coming, but I really feel the job fair made a difference (as much as I hated doing it). I also have an ANG job to fall back on. Everyone I know who has punched from AD has gotten cargo/major/legacy. Good luck with your decision!
