Default Guard/Reserve guys coming back to Major jobs

I figured I'd post this in the major section vs military since it's more along the lines of major flying...the jist is this...for many years, we have had quite a few heavy units, tankers, t-tails, and I think even a few fighter unit that have had pretty much unlimited MPA/RPA funding and it seems to have dried up almost overnight as we turned fiscal 2011. That being said, I know of quite a few people that have had to head back to their major airline gig that they have taken mil leave from for the past 2,4, or 8 years. Is it just a handful that I know or are some of you guys seeing a mass exodus from the govt gravy train back to the airlines? If every guy on mil leave goes back this year (and I know they ALL won't go back), it could very well affect hiring in the near future and those new hires that are going to training now/soon, may be stuck at the bottom of their seniority list a bit longer than they though. Feel free to discuss or discredit...
