This trip spills into the 1st, so my understanding is that reduces my on call days by 1, but does that mean that I would go right back onto LC 18 hours later as you indicate or is the 1st just completely wiped out?
You go on 18 hour long call at release from the trip.
Reserves are awarded X days and other preassigned activities. Any time that you don’t have something awarded (or where the pwa otherwise states you are not on call like before/after CQ) you are on call. A lineholder who has a transition trip into a reserve month immediately goes on call at release. If they subsequently trade/drop the trip the entire time in the subsequent month becomes on call time.
