This is true it can be done in the AF. How do I know? I did it. Currently in the AF Reserves. That being said, I only know this to be done when retiring from AF active duty and going to AF Reserves. It is on a case by case basis and it depends on the AFSC. I believe going to a rated AFSC under this program will NOT work. I was rated on AD for 14 years then changed to a Foreign Affairs AFSC for the last 11. Then went into the AF Reserves as a Foreign Affairs Officer. You will have to speak to a knowlegable AF Reserve Recruiter. Recommend you speak to MSgt Damien Maddox at ARPC (303) 676 7057. He will hand you off to the RMG at Warner Robbins, I just don't have their contact info.
