I forgot to add: look up the reg AF 36-3205 2.1. You are allowed a week of permissive TDY to "interview" with your Reserve commander. I tacked that onto my terminal leave to get out a little earlier.

I would start well in advance, and you're going to need a good letter from your Reserve commander if you PC, or a good reason to DEROS curtail (there is a DEROS office here that can help you with that). Then I would get your commander here to bite off on it, as well as the assignment guy at Randolph.
- any type of military "service" or "support" staff member is actually an agent of the devil who will try to suck the life out you and recruit you to their demonic ranks. Avoid the urge to strangle them-I am constantly reminded of this every move I do, especially this one.
