You are right about AFPC and the process, it is all a bit nebulous. I am glad that there is a forum like this to discuss issues. I am in the app process, completed my medical and waiting for the endorsement letter process to flow through AFRC. I am interested in UAVs and AOC's, whichever will give me max time - I have exactly 14 years of active service and am hoping to get to the 18 year point and sanctuary. Anybody at UAV training at Beale or working at the AOC at Ramstein now? Those are at the top of my list right now.

I am on my way to the AOC (603d) at Ramstein right now. I just finished the AOC IQT at Hurlburt and arrive in Germany next week. It has been a challenging process, but hopefully some of the issues they had with getting me through the process will flow a little smoother for those to follow. The 603d Director of Staff told me that there were several other folks following me in the near future, so Ramstein is a popular choice. If you're going to get into the hunt, you'd better do it before all of the Ramstein slots are full.

Safe travel to you and your family. Right on the mark about blazen the path first. It took my MPF 2 weeks to get me back into the system along with several other little things. Same advice I give other folks who have shown some intrest in the program. Apply now to get into the system. We have all seen how long it takes for AFPC to get folks back on active duty. Good Luck and welcome back. For all others don't rely on the "60 day" goal by AFPC it took me 5 months from app to active duty and I didn't need to move or go to any formal training so hang in there guys and don't pull all your hair out.

Gents,
Can someone post a good phone number to verify that my application fax was received? I'm planning on sending off the package on Monday. Thanks for sparing me from searching through 49 pages!!
Congrats to all of you that made it through the process.

This has been a very helpful thread. I have a question. I have 5300 points, 23 years of service, and I'm a Lt Col. A four year contract will get me past the 18 year point for sanctuary. However, it will not get me 20 good years and I will reach mandatory retirement at the 28 year point before I reach 20 years of service. So what "should" happen in this case if I get a four year contract? Will I not be able to immediatley begin receiving retired pay after separation in my case?
Thanks in advance.
