Just a hypothetical. If my pattern were to be trapped in the transporter buffer for a couple of year would I still be considered on active duty and have my time count towards total time in service? I'm going on an away mission tomorrow and it's something my bunk mates were chatting about.

What’s the message between the lines for $1000, Alex.

CSAF and SECAF have both sent memos to the force saying they encourage the Air Force to let go of policies that slow us down and encourage innovative practices, even if it means breaking some eggs.

Meanwhile, Chief Bass and the other service SELs are getting their jollies off about the enlisted force not meeting “standards” and they want us...

Hello! Sailor here going on solo TDY to the Warrior Prep Center, staying on Ramstein. Any tips? Never been to Germany. I'm driving from Frankfurt with a rental (I have a EU driver's license).

About to graduate from the Marine Corps Advanced school (SNCOA). I’m happy to answer questions for those selected/interested in future courses.

We met just like any normal couple would at the gym, grocery store, my favorite bar, even just a block away from my house and she's also into the same hobbies! She rarely talks about her family and is very enthusiastic about seeing my work (I'm in Intel).

I use Desktop Anywhere a whole lot. Every time, and I mean EVERY TIME I try to use anything that requires certificate authentication or signature, I get hit with a smart card error, and have to physically remove the CAC from the reader, re-insert, log in again, and then do what I was doing.

*Edit: AMA terminated, appreciate all the responses and I wish everyone the best.

Hello everyone! I haven’t seen one of these done in a while, and I enjoy nothing more than trying to provide clarity to what it’s like to be an OSI agent in the Department of the Air Force. As agents, we constantly battle the stigmas placed upon the career, as well as simply a lack of understanding of what we really...

I’ve been really trying to figure out my life and im torn between getting out and staying in (literally everybody’s problem.) I’ve finally discovered something I have a passion for, Graphic Design, but I’ve already been in for 7 years. I’ll be at 10 once my contract is up, and I’m really interested in getting my bachelors in that realm.

If I stay in, my goal is to become an officer. If I pursue...

Hear me out, I’m currently sitting at 6 years time in service as a SSgt. If I froze myself for 14 years, would I be able to just retire and live off E-5 retirement pay for the rest of my life?
