The AF stated their intent was voluntary recalls only, although the authorization was not limited to that.
After decades in the Navy I've seen only a couple retiree recalls, a couple seals, a couple nuke submariners, and a guy who was the only guy qualified to service a complex piece of medical gear. |

Likely? Not unless there is a general mobilization, but possible? Oh yes. Anyone intending to join the military - especially to accept a Regular commission, at least ought to be aware of the rules. Google this and it will send you to a PDF: DOD Directive 1352.1 - Management and Mobilization of Regular and Reserve Retired Military Members |
There are zero involuntary retired recalls. Throw the letter in the trash. Those guys all wanted to come back.

That’s funny and a great way to look at it....Place me in the same category.

To tag on, PDRit, I’ve been a SQ/DO and Group Commander and never refused an employer’s request for verification of duty. I’ve taken calls from employers and issued LOR for one dude who thought he could use his unit as a way out of working. I was the DO when another officer thought using sick leave from his airline was OK to be on man-days. When caught, he was fired from the airline and discharged sans retirement from the military. There were aggravating circumstances, but that’s the gist of it.
No, honor is required and expected, as are flight skills. I’ve also participated in three Flying Evaluation Boards for flying deficiencies. Off came the wings for two of them. Gf |

If you can't understand that the problem is you, not galaxy flyer living up to the standards required of an organization commander. |

So what would be your expectations that he do when one of the guys under his command tells his employer that he has guard/reserve duty to get out of work, when there actually was no duty, and that employer calls him to verify the duty? It *sounds* like you'd expect him to lie, and tell the employer that the guy did have duty, but I could be misunderstanding you, so thought I'd ask you and let you explain what you meant. |
