Makes for a good headline.

They have a bit of leverage. The airlines want changes to mil leave rules and the generals can make that happen.

So what you are saying is that AF still hasn't realized that it needs to fix its own internal crap if they want to retain more people...?

I hope the Dept Of Labor isn't too concerned about just AF generals and airlines! USERA is for all employees, not just pilots.

Sailingfun, you often sound like a cubicle type. So keep in mind the DOD would have to ask the DOL for "special" rules.

I think that would be covered by an honorable discharge. So yes, just like probation!

Mil leave rules have nothing to do with Active Duty or anything the generals can change
