You miss one hundred percent of the shots you don’t take. Baseops.net used to have a lot of job openings posted for both ANG and Reserve units. If I recall they were mostly for KC-135 and C-130 unite but may be worth a look. If you want to do it, let someone else tell no vs self eliminating. Good luck 👍
Edited: Just looked here is one... probably more. It may be a long short but who knows ...

I realize that my path is not the most traditional, but I am just wondering if it is too late or worth pursuing still. Age is not on my side but it sounds like waivers exist for those who are between 30-35 years old. I have heard of some who left a major airline after they got on the line and some who waited until after their probationary period to follow this path. Does anyone have any experience or advice doing this specifically? I would like to complete the AFOQT and TBAS prior to starting class in January if I choose to pursue this. Any meaningful insight would be greatly appreciated.
