Not sure if that applies to nurses, but you might want to check.
Yeah that's what I'm afraid of. Do you know anything about the ANG? I know most units hire within, so I take it that I would have to enlist and hold some random job until I could get a UPT slot? Also, does anyone happen to know what the contract time is for AF Reserve or ANG pilots?

CGFlyer, I was under the impression that you couldn't fly for the CG Reserve? Thought you had to be AD for 11 years?
