In my old line of work
Man how things seem to have changed. In my old line of work, any civilian, or military (Despite their perception of their need to know) who called up to one of our units requesting information about a specific pilot's currency, or general unit readiness (i.e. can you get by without one or two guys for a while?) would at least raise the question of fishing for OPSEC. While it would be taken for face value...the information would not be provided, but a report to Intel or the OSI would be appropriate.
You'd think a General would know that.

My wife is the Admiral of our house and has a PhD in telling me what to do. Maybe she should call crew scheduling and ask them if they really need me on reserve over the christmas holidays. Maybe they can move my R days to Jan so I can be around my family during Peak holiday time!

Pure and simple. The laws are the laws, regardless of what FedEx management thinks. There's just got to be something in the water down in Mecca-Red-Necka, which turns smart people into dummies.
