Anybody else see the lack of common sense in transforming a "strategic" reserve force into an "operational" reserve force but with less money? Those are their terms, not mine...
We got the news today as well, and we are in the middle of an ASEV. I don't think they realize how much of the load is carried by troughers/bums and now we are essentially unemployed, but somehow we have to get all our beans and stupid cbt's done, then be willing to mobilize this fall.
I think is a temporary problem, but am worried that when we do get a budget, we might get IDT's back but that is it as we've already burnt the RPA money for the FY.
