What are the pros/cons of UAS vs FW/RW? I'm a mil FW guy with no drone time, will it be an issue getting a UAS spot? What are the best bases for UASs?
What do you mean by finish off your 5 years of service? If you are at 15 years of active duty time, doing 5 years in civil service will not magically give you a 20 year retirement.
