The A team/B team is very alive and well. B teamer boogers continue to get flicked around the base for "career broadening" assignments while the A teamers deploy, plan and do exercises, years at FTUs, etc leading to burnout and separation. B teamers are the only ones left to promote providing the rest of the AF with irreparably inane "leadership" decisions. Rinse and repeat.
