Air Force: Did you know you can Go Reserve Now and get up to $20k in bonuses?

The Air Force Reserve is opening its doors to thousands of airmen looking to leave their active-duty commitment — and offering large bonuses for those in high-demand career fields.

The push follows a trend started with the sequestration threat in 2013 when many airmen grew wary of long-term careers in active duty, but wanted to serve in uniform and have the benefits of a military service.

At bases across the country, reservists are picking up more of the slack and flying missions alongside active-duty airmen, and in some cases becoming even busier than their active counterparts. This is the case here at one of the busiest mobility bases in the continental United States, where reserve pilots and aircrews fly the same C-17s as their active duty counterparts in missions around the globe.

"The Air Force Reserve is looking for good, quality people," said Master Sgt. James Joyal, an in-service recruiter with the 446th Airlift Wing here. "Our mission is getting bumped up and we are looking for prior service individuals coming off active duty. We could utilize their skill set and we have an opportunity for them."
