Several days later they tried to assign a rotation and I called to tell them I didn't have 30 hours of rest. Of course they pushed back, but when I asked where I had been legally notified of such rest they couldn't provide an answer and eventually dropped it.
I’m thinking about bidding reserve next month for the first time in a while. I have a carryover trip and will likely have CQ early in the month and will be trying to force a 30/168 between the carryover and CQ. Am I correct in thinking that there is no required schedule check at the end of the C/O trip as I will still be a Reg until after release?1
