In the Air Force, many pilots are getting a tour in the mighty Predator/Global Hawk. This loss of hours/currency will put pressure on them to stay in for another tour. After that tour, they only have 7 or less years to go to get the pension so a lot less will leave. Its easy to leave with 10+ years to go before one gets the pension but it gets a lot harder the closer you get.
