(By "normal" line holder, I mean someone who held a line without MIL leave, Vacation, etc.)

Having said all that - there were 72 normal lines and 40! reserve lines built for MSP 88B in September. That means you had to be in the top 64% to hold a regular line - I don't see that kind of ratio lasting long term (I hope!). I know the numbers for the category look really good going forward but it has been a frustrating few months as the base has been built up. Can you tell I'm ready to be done with reserve?
Why are your ready to done with resv. I can hold a line but bid resv here. I commute too. I never work. Are you getting used.
