I’m aware. Because I’m not living in a bunk bed in base I’d try and VDO during short time off stretches. If I get called great, if not I spend more time with my parents. Either way it works out. Not like I’m sitting on my ass in a crash pad with nothing to do bored out of my mind
Now the chance of me getting used on my VDO days? I don’t know. Probably not a lot but because they’re surrounded by reserve days maybe I have a higher chance. Not sure the priority and order of assigning trips to reservists and people VDOing
