I have to say--I was initially ambivalent about the idea, but now the concept sounds strangely alluring! Put me on record as in favor of B00BS!

You think that was planned or did Gunfighter just fortuitously stumble across that acronym? Either way he would be a perfect fit for a Navy post command staff job.

What if before the AE closes we have an LOA that allows...

SIDE BOOBS

Supplementary Inflows Due to Excessive Base Only Outflows By Seniority

(Too hungover to think of an acronym for underboob)

In some cases a base transfer is allowed when a flow up pilot from from Compass, Endeavor, etc. has selected a seat in your category ahead of their class date. In that situation a pilot can bid to an unfilled vacancy from a previous AE as long as a flow up pilot has already selected the category being vacated in the transfer.

Upflows Necessary from Delta Regionals (UNDeR) for Base Only Outflow By Seniority (BOOBS)

Based on historical data, this is expected to be the most popular option after the college football season.

Now if only someone could give me a visual of what you're talking about, I might be all for this UNDeRBOOBS concept of which you speak!
