For the Beechjet type, you won't have a Form 8, but rather a graduation/training report from UPT that the FSDO local to the base knows how to interpret. If in doubt call ahead to the FSDO and make sure they know how/are willing to help you.
Had a similiar thing happen years ago as I was getting ready to retire from the military. Back then you had to get a permission slip to take the ATP written and flight exam. Went to the Atlanta FSDO with my Form 8 that showed over 6000 hours of KC-135 time. The young guy in the office asked me where my cross country time was!! Had to point out several flights in excess of 8 hours that crossed the Atlantic and the Pacific. Finally an older gentleman came over and explained what a KC-135 was and told the young guy to give me the forms. Sometimes the military to civilian doesn't translate very well.
