This happened in the 90's, only then it was the "do not promote me" avenue of separation. AF leadership always comes up with these policies (kick out the PT failures) but can't see two moves ahead. They won't realize the corner they have painted themselves into after a few hundred pilots have been separated
I would caution those who go down that road. I do not know the rules, but I would not be surprised if you were separated for something like that, then you might not be eligible for the Guard or Reserve... do your research!!
