Not a GH guy, but two things:

1. The pilots who were at 5 years vs you and who were extended. Would this be because they're IPs and you aren't? i.e. You're young enough in your career that you are a more appropriate selection for the assignment? Not that it makes any difference; if you got hit with it you got it, but I am curious.

2. Look at the bright side: GH = Beale? Much better than Clovis (with a pred).
