Has anyone here been affected by the Air Force Retention Boards? I just found out that one of my sharpest E-6s will be asked to retire early. I should find out in the morning how many Airmen will be involuntarily separated.
I know of one unit that will lose nearly all of its captains to voluntary and involuntary separations.

We pulled back a Lt Col Weapon Systems Officer (WSO) who has been out of the airplane for almost a decade because we are so short on WSOs...then we RIF'd 3 WSOs in a different year group, including one with six deployments, on evaluator orders.
So far the tally from this latest RIF in terms of people I know:
- 1 TSgt (my little brother) - involuntary separation at 16.5 years (right after the birth of his daughter)
- 1 Captain (my co-worker) - involuntary separation at 5 years.
- 3 Majors (one was CGO of the year before he PCS'd) - involuntary separation at 10+ years.

A lot of good guys got their pink slips... I was part of it, but my unit became exempt suddenly... not sure why, but upset at some of the guys on the list.
