We understand how anxious you are to get additional information on the Force
Management programs that the Secretary and Chief announced in December. Due to
changes in the projected overages and corresponding eligibility criteria, there
has been a delay in publishing the information.
To give you an idea of your vulnerability, the updated Enlisted and Officer
matrices posted on the myPers Force Management page identify the AFSCs and
grade/year groups that are eligible for Involuntary Force Management Programs.
Further, updated Voluntary tables are also posted. To be clear, if you are
eligible for an involuntary program, then you are eligible for a voluntary
program. However, you may be eligible for a voluntary program, but not eligible
for an involuntary program. Please review the eligibility criteria contained in
each PSDM and the tables thoroughly.
For Enlisted, the table identifies the Control AFSCs (CAFSCs) and grades that
will meet the Fiscal Year (FY) 14 Enlisted Retention Boards (ERBs). Each CAFSC
and grade identified includes two cells-- Overage and Eligible. A number in the
Overage cell represents that year group’s overages, (regardless of program), we
anticipate based on projected AF requirements. If there is no overage number in
your respective grade/AFSC cell, you are not eligible and will not meet an FY14
ERB. However, you may still be eligible for a voluntary program.
A number in the Eligible cell represents the number of individuals eligible
for the Enlisted Retention Board (ERB). In some instances, the Overage number is
larger than the Eligible number. This does not mean that every Eligible member
will be selected for non-retention during the ERB. It means that these overage
losses are anticipated in that particular grade and CAFSC across all voluntary
and involuntary programs.
For Officers, there are tables for each Involuntary Force Management Program
(exception: Colonel ESERB, details are not yet finalized). These tables
identify, by program, which AFSCs and year groups are eligible. Like the
Enlisted matrices, each AFSC and year group includes two cells-- Estimated
Overage and Estimated Eligible. A number in the Estimated Overage cell
represents that year group’s overages, (regardless of program), we anticipate
based on projected AF requirements. The AF will use a combination of involuntary
and voluntary programs to reduce this overage.
Similar again to the Enlisted matrix, a number in the Estimated Eligible cell
represents the number of individuals eligible for that particular Force
Management Program. In a few instances, the overages exceed the eligible due to
limitations the AF has purposely imposed to address specific circumstances
requiring the officer to be retained (ex: sanctuary of an officer nearing
regular retirement). This does not mean that every Eligible member will be
selected for non-retention in that particular board. It means that these overage
losses are anticipated in that particular year group and AFSC across all the
voluntary and involuntary programs.
Each program’s table should be examined individually, to assess an
individual’s eligibility. For each program, if a cell does not include overage
or eligible numbers, officers in that particular AFSC and Year Group are
ineligible for that respective involuntary program, but may still be eligible
for a voluntary program if they meet those criteria.
Thank you for your patience. This message accompanies the data associated
with all the programs, with the exception of the Colonel ESERB. For all FM
programs, please check back frequently for updates. One of our objectives is to
be as transparent as possible, so you can make informed decisions about your
careers. So, as we start to execute the volunteer programs, the overage and
eligible involuntary program numbers will reduce accordingly. As a result, we
anticipate AFSCs and grades or year groups to drop out of consideration for
involuntary programs, as Airmen elect to leave our Air Force voluntarily.
