More than 80 Airmen from the 15 Airlift Squadron returned to Joint Base Charleston, Jan. 6, 2013, after a successful two-month deployment in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. The Airmen conducted combat operations in support of OEF while deployed with the 816th Expeditionary Airlift Squadron. "To date, the 15th AS has flown more than 600 sorties, accumulating 1,500 flight hours delivering 20 million pounds of cargo to include: 400 vehicles, 2,000 pallets and 14,000 passengers into and out of 32 airfields in the Area of Operations," said 1st Lt. Jason Gossett, 15th Airlift Squadron C-17 Globemaster III pilot. In addition, the squadron conducted the first C-17 airdrop at a new drop zone in the AOR, delivering 34 bundles of supplies weighing 51,000 pounds. The unit also

logged more than 3,500 hours of alert for contingency response. "While we were deployed we also provided Secretary of Defense support during his recent visit to the AOR," said Gossett. Additionally, during a five-day period, two 15th AS crews flew 33 sorties; airlifting 532 passengers, 23 vehicles and 51 pallets totaling 855,100 pounds in support of Operation ECHO CASEMATE, supporting Africa Command by transporting Burundi peace-keeping forces and their equipment to the Central African Republic to help prevent the spread of sectarian violence and protect innocent civilians in the country. "It has been challenging for the squadron to be away during the holiday season, but the talents and professionalism of the members of the 15th AS greatly enhanced the mission of the 437th Airlift Wing and OEF," said Gossett.

Force management programs necessary despite budget deal Air Force Public Affairs Agency Operating Location P

INSIDE

WASHINGTON – Despite a congressional budget deal that lessens the impact of sequestration on the Air Force, it doesn't go far enough to halt actions to shrink the service, senior service officials said. Under Secretary of the Air Force Eric Fanning and Gen. Mark Welsh III, the Air Force chief of staff, said that even with some relief from sequestration, the service will still have to reduce its force structure and sacrifice modernization and readiness. How this occurs will affect what the service will look like in 2023, when sequestration ends, they said. The proposed budget deal making its way through Congress would mitigate some near-term readiness problems, Welsh said, and Air Force leaders will put any money Congress approves beyond sequestration into training and maintenance accounts. The budget agreement, which was months in the making, eases spending caps for the next two fiscal years while softening the impact of across-the-board spending cuts, known as the sequester, on defense and non-defense programs. Overall, the agreement calls for more than $20 billion in deficit reduction. Still, Welsh said, this doesn't change the long-term picture, noting that sequestration poses a dilemma for the Air Force. Does the service choose to keep near-term readiness high at the expense of force modernization, or vice versa? "That's the balance we're trying to walk," the general said. One example of this conundrum is the close air support mission. The Air Force is studying proposals on how best to carry out this core mission, the general said. One proposal would eliminate the A-10 Thunderbolt II close air support aircraft.

If money were no object, the A-10 would be a great platform to retain, the general said. But money is tight, he noted, and will be tighter. "To pay our $12 billion-a-year bill toward sequestration, we have got to find savings in big chunks," Welsh said. "That's the problem. And that's what all these discussions are based on. It's not about a specific platform. It's about balancing the mission sets." The general said other aircraft – F-16 Fighting Falcons, B1 Lancers and B-52 Stratofortresses – provide roughly 75 percent of the close air support in Afghanistan today. "We have a lot of airplanes that can perform that mission and perform it well," he said. "Those other aircraft do other things for us." The Air Force ultimately will replace the A-10 with the F35 Lightning II joint strike fighter, Welsh said. "That plan hasn't changed." “Saving money also is important. To do that, you have to start talking about fleet divestitures, because you have to get rid of the infrastructure behind the aircraft – the logistics tail, the supply systems, the facilities that do all the logistical support and depot maintenance, et cetera," he said. "That's where you create big savings." Changing force structure also will inevitably change the service, Welsh said. "We will have to draw down people – both the tooth and the tail that comes with that force structure," he said. Personnel policies will be used to shape the force, and the service is getting these policies out to Airmen now so they can make informed decisions, Welsh said. "We'd love to get all this done with voluntary force-shaping measures over a period of time," he said. "If we ... have to take involuntary measures, I would like everyone to have at least

six months of time to talk to their family (and) to think about the impact this could have on them." With only operations and maintenance and investment accounts remaining for quick assessment, a profound impact to readiness could ensue. "The Air Force was already in a 20-year readiness decline, something we were just starting to address when sequestration hit," said Fanning, adding that the service's size and structure doesn't lend itself to a tiered readiness model. "When the flag goes up, the Air Force is expected to get to the crisis rapidly," he said. "Speed is a key advantage of airpower." The number of Air Force squadrons equals the combatant commanders' requirements, Fanning said, but with little or no time built into plans to bring forces up to full readiness. "If it takes months to generate combat air power, the president loses deterrence, diplomatic influence and contingency options on which the nation has come to depend," he said. Fanning characterized budget compromises currently in debate on Capitol Hill as encouraging, though lower than service officials would like. The additional funds over the next two years will help cover readiness shortfalls, stability and planning, he said. "Even with this relief, we will need to resize the Air Force to one that is smaller than it is today in order to protect investments we need for the future and to shape an Air Force that we can keep ready; we can't do these cuts individually, ad hoc, or in isolation," Fanning said. "If something's restored to the budget we present to the Hill, something else will need to go." Still, Fanning pledged a continued commitment to helping Airmen get past the "distractions" of budget and political uncertainty. "We will make the decisions that we can, as quickly as we can, as transparently as we can ... to get the Air Force back to that 'new normal,'" he said.

COMMENTARY

Commentary by Col. Darren Hartford 437th Airlift Wing commander

"There is a Chinese curse which says, 'May he live in interesting times.' Like it or not, we live in interesting times ..." Robert Kennedy Happy New Year! I am not sure where 2013 went, but 2014 is fully upon us and there is no turning back. 2013 was a year of unique challenges and 2014 is shaping up to be more of the same. When I look back at 2013, I think of the challenges we faced locally with implementing the Budget Control Act (better known as sequestration), that impacted the funding available to support Airmen. It led to the implementation of civilian furloughs. We teamed together to determine how to mitigate the impact both professionally and personally as we worked through the options that took us from 22 days unpaid time off, to the final six days unpaid time off for a majority of the civilian workforce. Let's not forget topping it off with the government shutdown to start fiscal year 2014, which led to more unpaid time off for some of our civilian employees. I also remember that while we were dealing with the sequestration challenge, we also hosted multiple base-wide events to include visits by the Air Mobility Command commander, U.S. Transportation Command commander, and the Secretary of Defense.

done. As he observed his surroundings, he saw where improvements could be made and without hesitation, jumped at chance to make an impact. After spending a mere day at his work center, I observed firsthand as he assisted Airmen both personally and professionally. He made phone calls to clarify processes, offered advice and talked through situations with several Airmen, all before noon. He was no longer the intimidating figure I knew him as at BMT, he was an instructor in every sense of the word – a true leader. “If you don’t like it, change it,” – it was this message that I took with me. I now, like him, wake up with the deliberate intention of having a good day and making an impact. When something goes wrong or I get frustrated, his message echoes, and I change it.

FORT GEORGE G. MEADE, Md. – My experience at Air Force Basic Military Training is seared into my brain. Though the specifics are slowly fading, I will always remember feeling every emotion on the spectrum on a daily basis, thanks in large part to “the monster,” my military training instructor, Tech. Sgt. Matthew Zien. He was always lurking. He seemed to have an endless amount of energy; if we were awake, he was there. I remember seeing other MTIs and thinking, “Man, how bad is my luck that I drew Zien?” It seemed the "I" in MTI stood for intimidation, rather than instructor, but as my flight progressed through the eight-week training, blind fear gave way to a profound sense of respect. His lessons on resiliency still resonate with me today, and during a recent trip to Buckley Air Force Base, Colo., those lessons from BMT were reinforced beyond what I could imagine. It’s been more than two years since BMT, so I was surprised when I got a phone call from my old MTI. Zien had been working on a leadership newsletter to distribute to his wing, and called me to take cursory look before he sent it out. Along with the newsletter, he sent his autobiography. As I read through the chronicling of his past year, I knew I had to act. His story needed to be told. Due to medical issues, Zien nearly lost his life. During his recovery, he relapsed into post-traumatic stress syndrome and attempted suicide. Once he made the decision to get better, he shifted his focus from his own pain to mentoring. He mentors anyone, military and civilian alike, drawing on his near-death experience for inspiration. During my two days with him, he took a day to speak to elementary school students, told his story to the cameras at the Buckley AFB public affairs shop, and mentored the Airmen he works with in one-on-one sessions.

WASHINGTON – The Air Force will reduce the size of its civilian workforce by about 900 positions in addition to maintaining approximately 7,000 vacancies across the force to meet the demands of a constrained fiscal 2014 budget, officials announced. Specific reductions by location have not been determined. The Air Force will implement civilian workforce shaping initiatives, along with continued targeted hiring to comply with mandatory funding targets and to rebalance the civilian workforce to meet skill demands for fiscal 2014 and beyond. "The Defense Department used administrative furloughs to meet civilian pay budget demands in the compressed time frame between sequestration and the end of the FY13. We will meet a similar budgetary challenge in FY14 through a reduced workforce," said Brig. Gen. Gina Grosso, the director of force management policy for the Air Force. The general added that the Air Force's strategy to meet civilian pay budget targets does

not include a furlough. To reduce the number of employees assigned against previously and newly abolished positions, the Air Force plans to maximize the use of Voluntary Early Retirement Authority and Voluntary Separation Incentive Pay to entice employees who are eligible to leave federal service to do so voluntarily. These programs offer early retirement for employees who are considering life outside of federal service and up to $25,000 for employees whose voluntary separation would save another employee from being involuntarily separated. "Over the last couple of years the Air Force has gone through significant civilian pay budget challenges,"Grosso said. "By implementing voluntary programs now we hope to mitigate future involuntary losses to the civilian workforce."

FORCE MANAGEMENT

FY14 Military and Civilian Force Management Q&A

WASHINGTON – Air Force leadership announced force management programs designed to reduce the force by thousands of Airmen over the next five years as a result of sequestration. Fiscal year 2014 force management initiatives are in addition to the announcement made in July, stating the Air Force will implement several force management programs to meet budget reduction requirements. Below are commonly asked questions regarding FY14 force management.

Q. Who do I contact to determine what FY14 Force Management programs are applicable to me? A. Once specific details are available, AFPC will notify Airmen via official personnel messages and public news releases that will be posted on www.afpc.af.mil and www.af.mil. At that time, Airmen will be able to visit myPers at https://mypers.af.mil to read the personnel messages and guidance on eligibility and applications.

Q. How will I know if I'm affected by force management actions? A. Specific board information will be released on the myPers website at https://mypers.af.mil.

Q. Why is the Air Force announcing this now when details on specific career fields aren't available? A. The service has made a conscious decision to announce these force management programs now in order to give Airmen as much time as possible to plan for their futures. Specific career field details will be available in the coming weeks.

Q. What career fields are vulnerable for this round of force management measures? Can those selected for an force management-related separation volunteer for a different career field? A. Specific career fields will be determined based on overages and identified on the matrix on myPers website by career field and year group. Airmen who are selected for a force management-related separation may have an opportunity to continue their service in either the Air Force Reserve or the National Guard.

Q. Does this mean that a high quality officer or enlisted member in an overmanned field can get kicked out when a lower quality member in an undermanned field gets to stay? If so, why? If not, how will it work for the high-quality members to be retained? A. The AF will focus on retaining top performers across multiple AFSCs. Retention boards, for both officers and enlisted, will be charged to review records and select high performing Airmen for retention.

Q. Are rated and medical officers vulnerable to force management actions? A. Yes, some rated and health professions officers will be eligible for voluntary and involuntary force management programs.

Q. What grades and year groups will be vulnerable for Force Shaping Boards (FSB) and Reductions in Force (RIF)? A. RIFs impact regular officers with 6 or more years Total Active Commissioned Service and less than 18 years of Total Active Federal Military Service below the grade of Lieutenant Colonel who have served at least 1 year of active duty in the current grade; are not on a promotion list; and are not eligible for retirement or will not become eligible for retirement within 2 years. FSB will consider active duty officers with more than 3 but less than 6 years of commissioned service as of Dec. 31, 2014. Officers selected for separation under FSB are not entitled to any type of separation pay unless they have 6 or more years Total Active Federal Military Service.

Q. Are there any other enlisted programs scheduled for FY14? A. At this time, the Air Force plans to continue the Date of Separation (DOS) Rollback Program and implement Enlisted Retention Boards. Additionally, enlisted in over-manned career fields with more than 15 but less than 20 years of service will be eligible for Temporary Early Retirement Authority (TERA) Phase II. The Air Force also plans to offer Voluntary Separation Pay (VSP) to Airmen meeting an enlisted retention board with greater than 6 years but less than 15 years of service. Airmen meeting the quality force review board are not eligible for VSP.

Q. How will this affect specific bases and communities? A. We don't know yet how this overall force reduction will affect specific bases or communities.

Chief Master Sergeant Retention Board Q. How many chiefs will be considered by the board? A. It's contingent upon the number of chiefs who apply and are approved under the voluntary retirement phase of the program. We won't have the answer to that question until the end of the volunteer phase.

Q. Will all career fields be considered or only selective

fields? A. This board will review the records of chief master sergeants in overage AFSCs and those with negative quality indicators and identify chiefs recommended for retirement.

Q. How long after meeting an involuntary board will members have to prepare for separation or retirement? A. Approximately 4 months depending on board dates.

Q. Will there be an appeal process or is the board decision final? A. Airmen always have the right to appeal any records related issues, and routinely do so via the Air Force Board of Military Records Correction. Guidance on the process is available on myPers at https://mypers.af.mil.

Q. Will ADSCs be waived? Which ones and to what degree? A. The intent is to retain the highest quality Airmen. ADSCs will not be a factor in the process. Q. Will Chiefs selected by the board for retirement have to repay TEB (Transfer of Education Benefits) to family? A. If a chief meets the Department of VA Post-9/11 GI Bill eligibility requirements, failure to be selected for retention will not impact benefits.

Q. What is the benefit for a chief in volunteering for retirement vs meeting the board? A. A chief who volunteers for retirement will have more time to plan for retirement versus meeting the board and having 60 days less transition time. Enlisted Retention Boards Q. How long will members have to prepare to meet a retention board? A. Enlisted members will be given 6 months advanced notice of when retention boards will meet. Specific board details with milestones for each board will be released by AFPC.

Q. Will members be able to submit a letter or memo to the retention board? A. Specific board details will be announced in advance of each retention board. Q. Will commanders be able to make a recommendation? A. Yes, similar to officer retention boards, commanders will be required to make a retention recommendation.

Q. Will there be an appeal process for members selected for retirement/separation? A. Airmen always have the right to appeal any records related issues, and routinely do so via the Air Force Board of Military Records Correction. Guidance on the process is available on myPers at https://mypers.af.mil.

Q. Will this be an ongoing process, like promotion boards? A. Yes, under the new personnel management strategy, enlisted retention boards are an enduring performance-based management tool designed to retain a high performing leaner force.

Enhanced Selective Early Retirement Board Q. What is an Enhanced Selective Early Retirement Board (ESERB)? A. An ESERB allows the service to consider regular officers on the active duty list in the grades of Captain (with prior service) through Colonel for early retirement. Colonels with 2-4 years time in grade; lieutenant colonels who are retirement eligible and have been passed over once for promotion; and retirement eligible officers below the rank of Colonel on active duty. Eligible officers can be considered by competitive categories, grade, year group and AFSC. Colonels with at least 4 years time in grade and lieutenant colonels twice deferred to colonel are eligible for the regular SERB.

end strength target for the out-years and analyzing retention, gains and other force management factors. Q. Why is the Air Force using an ESERB to meet end strength? Who will be considered? Just lieutenant colonels and colonels or captains and majors as well?

A. Under the law, eSERB allows for more flexibility to selectively consider officers for retirement. ESERB will consider lieutenant colonels once deferred for promotion, colonels with 2-4 years TIG, and retirement eligible majors.

Q. How many officers will be selected for ESERB? A. By law, no more than 30% of the eligibles in each grade in each competitive category may be selected for early retirement by the ESERB. We continually assess manning in each competitive category with regard to projected end strength to determine respective ESERB selection rates.

Q. If the Air Force receives enough voluntary applications will it still conduct the ESERB? A. We will continue to assess manning in each competitive category with regard to projected end strength to determine ESERB use and selection rates. Voluntary Early Retirement Authority (VERA) and Voluntary Separation Incentive Pay (VSIP)

Q. What is VERA? A. The Voluntary Early Retirement Authority (VERA) is a management tool used to downsize or restructure the civilian workforce to meet mission objectives. It authorizes employees to retire before reaching normal retirement eligibility based on age and years of Federal service. Reasons for approving VERA include substantial reduction in force (RIF), reorganization or transfer of function (TOF). Eligibility for VERA may be based on occupational series or grade; skills, knowledge or other factors related to a position; organizational, geographical, non-personal and objective factors; or a combination of these factors.

Q. Who can authorize the use of VERA? A. Authority for VERA previously delegated to installation commanders, tenant commanders and agency heads was recently rescinded. The Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Manpower and Reserve Affairs retains the authority.

Q. Who can approve VSIP? A. The Secretary of the Air Force has delegated this authority to HQ AF/A1, who has further delegated it to local installation commanders, tenant commanders and heads of activities. This authority cannot be delegated to any lower level. HQ AF/A1 retains the authority for employees assigned to the Central Salary Account. To maximize the use of voluntary measures to rebalance the civilian workforce, we expect all MAJCOM, installation and tenant commanders and heads of activities to use VERA/VSIP to the maximum extent possible to reduce or preclude future involuntary actions for AF employees. The goal is to preclude involuntary separations. Q. What are the basic age and service requirements for VERA? A. To be eligible for VERA, an Air Force employee must be either age 50 with 20 years of creditable service or have 25 years of total creditable service at any age. It is important to note that if an Air Force employee covered by the Civil Service Retirement System takes a VERA, he or she will face a 2 percent reduction in annuity for each year he or she is under the age of 55. There is no reduction for Air Force employees covered by the Federal Employee Retirement system.

Q. Are there any other restrictions that could prevent civilian employees from retiring under VERA? A. Yes. Air Force employees on time-limited appointments (i.e., temporary or term appointments), and those who have not been continuously employed by DoD for more than 30

Q. Does ESERB provide the same "once every five years" eligibility constraint as the regular SERB? A. No. Under the regular SERB, officers can only be considered by a board once every 5 years, which usually means each officer is considered once in a career. “Providing Effective However, officers can be considered by consecutive ESERB boards every year until they voluntarily retire or become eligible for SERB.

days before the date on which the determination to conduct a workforce reduction or restructuring action has been approved, are ineligible to receive a VERA. In addition, Air Force employees in receipt of a decision of involuntary separation for misconduct or unsatisfactory performance are not eligible for VERA.

Q. After the VERA window is opened, can management change the number of available VERAs, the targeted positions for which it is being offered, the deadline for applying or the date by which employees must retire if their applications are approved? A. Yes.

mitting to retirement through the normal application process.

Q. If an employee accepts VERA, when will the retirement be effective? A. It will depend on the effective date that AF decides upon for VERA/VSIP in FY14. At this time the proposed effective date is Feb. 28, 2014.

Q. What is VSIP? A. Voluntary Separation Incentive Pay (VSIP), commonly referred to as a buyout, is a payment of up to $25,000 to encourage eligible civilian employees to separate from service voluntarily (either by retirement or resignation) to avoid or minimize the need for involuntary separations due to reduction in force (RIF), base closure, reorganization, transfer of function or workforce restructuring. The buyout payment is equivalent to an employee's severance pay entitlement up to a maximum of $25,000 (before taxes). Buyouts are used at management's discretion and are not an employee entitlement.

Q. What are the basic eligibility requirements for VSIP? A. An employee must be a U.S. citizen, employed in an appointment without time limitation and must have been employed by the Department for a continuous period of at least 12 months. An employee is ineligible for a buyout if he or she: • Is a reemployed annuitant • Is or would be eligible for disability retirement under any Federal employee retirement system • Is on a Schedule C excepted appointment • Is a non-compensated employee • Has accepted a position with another Federal agency • Has received a specific notice of RIF separation • Has declined to relocate with his/her position or declined a transfer of function • Has received a decision notice of involuntary separation for misconduct or unacceptable performance or • Has previously received a buyout

Q. If an Air Force employee meets the basic eligibility requirements, are there any other restrictions that would prevent offering VSIP? A. Yes. Absent a waiver, an Air Force employee is ineligible for a buyout if he or she: • Is covered by a written service agreement resulting from a Permanent Change of Station (PCS) or training, or is in receipt of a recruitment or relocation bonus • Is receiving a retention allowance • Is occupying a position defined as hard to fill or • Is occupying a position for which special salary rates are approved

Q. Is VSIP paid in a lump sum or do employees have other payment options? A. In addition to lump sum payment, two installment options are available. The first option is bi-weekly payments in equal amounts. The employee selects the amount, but the payments must be completed within 1 year of the date of separation. Under the second installment option, one half of the buyout is paid 6 months after separation and the remaining half is paid 6 months later.

Q. What happens if the number of employees applying for VSIP exceeds the number of available buyouts? A. When the number of applicants exceeds the number of available buyouts, applications within the targeted group are processed in order of seniority based on the employees' leave service computation date (SCD-LV). The Air Force procedure is to place employees into three groups. The first is the group of employees who are eligible for retirement. The second is the group of employees who are eligible for early retirement. The third and final group is the group of employees that are interested in resigning (that is, the employees in this third group are not eligible for any type of retirement).The first group (those who are eligible to retire) is ranked in SCD-LV order with the one who has the most seniority at the top of the list. Matches of the buyout are then made. If all matches are completed from the first group, then the next group is reviewed and matches made. Finally, if the buyout matches have been made against both the first and second groups, and yet more employees are needed to take a buyout, then the matches are made against the third group.

Q. What should an employee do if he or she gets a survey to indicate interest in VERA/VSIP? A. First, employees should review all the available information on the programs at the myPers website at https://mypers.af.mil, and word search "VERA" and "VSIP". For annuity estimates, employees should go to the AFPC Benefits and Entitlements Service Team (BEST) automated web site (EBIS), and use the various tools, including the retirement calculator. With the information garnered at the myPers and BEST EBIS sites, employees should next contact their local CPS to discuss their individual situations and what steps to take in the event they are offered VERA and/or VSIP.

Federal Government after they separate with VSIP? A. Yes. VSIP is essentially a buyout, so employees who accept VSIP cannot come back to work for the federal government for a minimum of 5 years after their buyout separation date. If they do, they will be required to pay back the buyout funds.

FORCE MANAGEMENT

Air Force announces additional force management programs to reduce force size

WASHINGTON – Air Force leadership announced force management programs designed to reduce the force by thousands of Airmen over the next five years as a result of sequestration. Fiscal year 2014 force management initiatives are in addition to the announcement made in July, stating the Air Force will implement several force management programs to meet budget reduction requirements. - CMSgt Voluntary Retirement Phase. The voluntary retirement phase identifies targeted AFSCs and the number of CMSgts needed to retire. During this phase, CMSgts may apply for retirement in lieu of meeting the CMSgt Retention Board based on the eligibility criteria outlined in the CMSgt Retention Board Personnel Services Delivery Memorandum (PSDM). (Voluntary) - CMSgt Retention Board. This board will review the records of Chief Master Sergeants in overage AFSCs and those with negative quality indicators and identify CMSgts recommended for retirement. (Involuntary) - Quality Force Review Board (QFRB). The Quality Force Review Board will consider all Airmen (except those in the retirement sanctuary - greater than or equal to 18 years of service and less than 20 years of service as of 30 Sep 14) with specified negative Reporting Identifiers (RIs), Reenlistment Eligibility (RE) codes, Assignment Availability Codes (AACs), or Grade Status Reasons (GSRs). Voluntary separation pay will not be offered to Airmen meeting the Quality Force Review Board, however separation pay will be paid to Airmen with 6 or more and less than 15 years of service who are not retained. TERA will be offered to Airmen with at least 15 years of service who are not retained. Retirement eligible Airmen (20 or more years) who are not retained will have the opportunity to apply for normal retirement. (Involuntary) - Temporary Early Retirement Authority. TERA authorizes officer and enlisted Airmen, with more than 15, but less than 20 years of total active federal military service to apply for early retirement with a reduced amount of retirement pay. (Voluntary) - Date of Separation (DOS) Rollback. The Service Secretary may discharge enlisted members within 12 months of expiration of their term of service based on prescribed cri-

teria. The purpose of the DOS Rollback program is to accelerate the DOS by up to a year, for Airmen who have declined to obtain service retainability for assignments, training, retraining, or Professional Military Education. (Involuntary) - Enlisted Voluntary Separation Pay. Enlisted VSP applies to Airmen on the active duty list with 6 or more years but less than 20 years of Total Active Federal Military Service. Airmen may apply for VSP in lieu of meeting an enlisted retention board (this does not include the Quality Force Review Board or SNCO Retention Boards). Airmen may apply for VSP if they are in an overage AFSC and grade, which includes Airmen who are eligible to meet an enlisted retention board. (Voluntary) - Senior Noncommissioned Officer (SNCO) Retention Boards. The Service Secretary may discharge enlisted members before their term of service expires based on prescribed criteria. The SNCO retention boards will determine which retirement-eligible Airmen (at least 20 years as of 30 Nov 14) in an overage AFSC/grade are retained and which are selected to retire early. (Involuntary) - Enlisted Retention Boards. The Service Secretary may discharge enlisted members before their term of service expires based on prescribed criteria. The enlisted retention boards will determine which Airmen (SrA through TSgt) are selected for retention and which Airmen will separate or retire early. These boards will consider Airmen (except those in sanctuary - greater than or equal to 18 years of service and less than 20 years of service as of 31 Jan 15) in an overage AFSC/grade to determine who will be retained. Voluntary separation pay will be offered to those Airmen meeting a retention board with 6 or more years of service. Involuntary separation pay will be given to Airmen with 6 or more and less than 15 years of service who are not retained. TERA will be offered to Airmen with at least 15 years of service before the board and to similarly eligible Airmen who are not retained. (Involuntary) - Selective Early Retirement Board (SERB). This SERB applies to regular officers on the active duty list in grades of

Crisp and Owens

Lieutenant Colonel and Colonel. Eligibility is defined as Colonels with at least 4 years time in grade and Lieutenant Colonels who have been non-selected for promotion to the next higher grade at least twice and who, in either case, are not on a list of officers recommended for promotion. Officers can only be considered by the SERB once in any 5year period. Officers will be considered by the SERB within competitive categories (similar to a promotion board); total number of officers recommended for retirement cannot exceed 30 percent of the eligible population by grade. (Involuntary) - Enhanced Selective Early Retirement Board (ESERB). The ESERB is a new authority granted in the FY13 NDAA that Air Force has not previously used. It applies to regular officers on the active duty list in grades of Captain (with prior service) through Colonel. Eligibility is defined as Colonels with 2 but less than 4 years time in grade; Lieutenant Colonels who have been once non-selected for promotion to the next higher grade; and retirement-eligible officers below the rank of Colonel on active duty. Officers can be considered by the ESERB each year, provided they continue to meet eligibility criteria. The authority allows consideration by grade, year groups, specialties, or competitive categories; total number of officers recommended for retirement cannot exceed 30 percent of the eligible population within each grade. (Involuntary) - Officer Voluntary Separation Pay. Officer VSP applies to Airmen on the active duty list with 6 or more years Total Active Federal Military Service and less than 20 years of Total Active Federal Military Service. RIF and Force Shaping Board eligible officers (with 6 or more years Total Active

Federal Military Service) may apply for VSP in lieu of meeting the board. (Voluntary) - Reduction In Force (RIF). RIFs impact regular officers with 6 or more years Total Active Commissioned Service and less than 18 years of Total Active Federal Military Service below the grade of Lieutenant Colonel who have served at least 1 year of active duty in the current grade; are not on a promotion list; and are not eligible for retirement or will not become eligible for retirement within 2 years. (Involuntary) - Force Shaping Board (FSB). FSB will consider active duty officers with more than 3 but less than 6 years of commissioned service as of 31 Dec 14. Officers selected for separation under FSB are not entitled to any type of separation pay unless they have 6 or more years Total Active Federal Military Service. (Involuntary)

ADDITIONAL VOLUNTARY PROGRAMS - Limited Active Duty Service Commitment waiver program allows eligible personnel to request a waiver for certain previously incurred service commitments in order to separate or retire. - Expanded PALACE CHASE. AF Officer/Enlisted Expanded PALACE CHASE program facilitates transfer of personnel with active duty service commitments from active military service to an Air Reserve Component (ARC). Transfer to the ARC results in a 1-for1 (not less than 1 year or greater than 6 years) commitment. - 8 vs 10 Total Active Federal Commissioned Service Date Waivers. This waiver authorizes eligible officers to retire as an officer with reduced active commissioned service; 8 commissioned years of service instead of 10 years. - Time in Grade Waivers. Officers in overage grade/specialties may request to retire or separate in their current grade with no less than 2 years time in grade versus normal requirement of 3 years.

FORCE MANAGEMENT

DOS rollback included in FY14 force management By Chief Master Sgt. Robert Valenca 628th Air Base Wing acting command chief

On Dec. 13, the Air Force announced its current Date of Separation (DOS) roll back program to aid in the current reduction in forces we face. This program is designed to roll back the DOS for individuals throughout the Air Force who have turned down service retainability, because either they chose not to take an assignment, attend professional military education, go on a deployment or accept their promotion service requirements. Due to these limiting factors this program will only affect a very small scope of the Air Force population. Two of the key factors to this program are that Airmen must have less than 15 years of Total Active Federal Military Service (TAFMS) as of May 31, 2014 or 20 years or more of TAFMS on or before April 30, 2014. They must also have a current DOS of April 30, 2015 or projected retirement date of May 31, 2015. If you do not fall into these categories you are not eligible for the program. Those Airmen who are selected under the DOS roll back program will receive an email notification from the Air Force Personnel Center confirming their standing. It is vital you take action on this notification right away. If you are selected under the DOS roll back you still have the opportunity to attend the Transition Assistance Program to help you as you begin the new phase of your life. There are many more programs as well as waivered items that go along with the DOS roll back. It is vital if you know you are affected by this program that you immediately take action and seek out assistance from your supervisor, First Sergeants, Chief's, Commanders, and the Military Personnel Section. They are all there to help answer any questions you may have and help ensure a successful transition with all the benefits that you are authorized. You can also follow the link below to read the Personnel Service Delivery Memorandum on the DOS roll back to help with any questions you may have.

Temporary Early Retirement Authority to aid force reduction By Chief Master Sgt. Robert Valenca 628th Air Base Wing acting command chief

The Air Force has made public another program designed to help reduce the overall size of our force. This Temporary Early Retirement Authority (TERA) is phase II of a program that was utilized earlier this year. The program is designed to allow Airmen to retire from active duty before fulfilling a full 20 years of service commitment. This program is strictly voluntary and allows service members in specific career fields with between 15 and 19 years of Total Active Federal Military Service (TAFMS) as of July 31, 2014 to retire from the military. Additionally, if an Airman is between 19-20 years of service they can apply for the program no matter what career field they are serving in. Airmen can begin applying for the program between Jan. 14 and March 26 of next year, and will have an effective retirement date of Aug. 1, 2014. All applications will be approved by April 1, 2014. There are a few items to look for in this program. First, although a voluntary program it does not guarantee you will be selected. Airmen should be sure to make no commitments thinking they will be automatically selected. All of these programs are designed

to shape specific career fields in predetermined ranks and year groups. You must determine your eligibility with the Military Personnel Section and await approval from the Air Force Personnel Center before making any post military decisions. Second, it is vital you determine the impact this will have to your benefits. Although it is retirement it will be at a reduced rate and will vary whether you are currently enrolled in the High 3 retirement program or REDUX. It is essential you check with the finance office to see how this will affect your retirement pay. This program has several exclusions that may make Airmen ineligible as well as many other implications that must be considered including education benefits and Career Status Bonuses. It is important you research all of the information and sit-down with your leadership and the Military Personnel flight and see how volunteering for TERA will affect you individually. For specifics on the program log on from a Common Access Card enabled computer and follow the link below to read the Personnel Service Delivery Memorandum on the subject.

FORCE MANAGEMENT

Requirements for Voluntarily Separation Program By Chief Master Sgt. Robert Valenca 628th Air Base Wing acting command chief

The Air Force is continuing to release information on the upcoming force management changes that are designed to reduce our force by approximately 25,000 officers and enlisted Airmen over the next five years. The latest announcement provided insight into the requirements for the Voluntarily Separation Program and the monetary compensation that can be expected if you take it. This program is targeted to Airmen in specific overage career fields who are selected to meet the enlisted retention boards and will reach at least six years of service by Jan. 31, 2015. If Airmen already have six years of service by the time they meet the retention board, then – if chosen for separation – their separation date will be Sept. 29, 2014. If an Airmen is selected to meet the board, but does not reach six years until after Sept. 29 they may still accept the VSP and their separation date will be set between Sept. 30, 2014 to Jan. 31, 2015 to match the date when they will reach exactly six years of service. The primary advantage to the VSP program will be the amount of separation pay that an Airman will receive. If you go to the enlisted retention board and are selected for separation you will receive your monthly base pay multiplied by 12,

then multiplied by your years of total active federal military service with the addition of any whole months served over the total years. Then this is multiplied by 10 percent to provide the full separation pay someone who was not retained by the board will receive. An example below taken from the Personnel Service Delivery Memorandum on the subject shows how this will compute out for a 12-year staff sergeant that met the board and was not retained. Full Separation Pay Example: A Staff Sergeant wtih 12 years and 3 months and 13 days of total active federal military service [($3095.00 monthly base pay) x 12 years x 147 (total whole months served) x (10%)] divided by 12 = $45,496.50. (Please note in the example above the reason it is then divided out by 12 at the end is to account for additional months. If an Airman had been in for exactly 12 years, or 144 months, then the formula would simply be $3095 x 144 then divided by 10% giving the Staff Sergeant $44,568 in separation pay.) However, if the same Staff Sergeant were to take the VSP instead of selecting to meet the board then their pay would be computed slightly different. As a benefit for selecting to accept VSP instead of meeting the board they would receive an additional 1.25 multiplier added on to their separation pay. Using the exact same information above in this scenario the

Staff Sergeant would receive an additional $11,374.12 in separation pay. Again an example for the Air Force Personnel Center PSDM illustrating the separation pay break down is below.

Voluntary Separation Pay FAQs answered

WASHINGTON – Read below for frequently asked questions about the Voluntary Separation Pay program.

Q. Who is eligible for Voluntary Separation Pay (VSP)? A. Eligible Airmen who elect to voluntary separate in lieu of meeting the Retention Board will receive VSP. Airmen with six or more, but less than 18 years of Total Active Federal Military Service by 29 Sep 14, may apply for separation effective no later than 29 Sep 14, under the Voluntary Separation Pay (VSP) program IAW Title 10 U.S.C. Section 1175a. Airmen eligible for the Enlisted Retention Board who reach 6 years of service between 30 Sep 14 through 31 Jan 15 may request a separation date equal to the date they complete six years of service to qualify for VSP.

Q. Is there a Reserve Commitment with Voluntary Separation Pay (VSP)? A. Yes. Airmen who are approved for VSP will sign a written agreement to serve in the Individual Ready Reserve for three years. If the Airman has not completed their military service obligation (MSO) at the time of their separation from active duty, the 3-year period they agree to serve in the Ready Reserve will begin on the date after they complete their MSO. The IRR is a non-active component of the Reserve and does not require participation, except to notify the Reserve if your address changes. This is inactive duty and members will be subject to recall, as are all individuals serving in the IRR. Generally, IRR members are not required to perform duty or meet annual training requirements. There are no restrictions against receiving VSP and being accepted for employment in the civil service. Airmen with an existing military service

obligation at the time of their date of separation will fulfill this obligation in the IRR in order to receive VSP. Airmen must sign and submit a written agreement to serve in the IRR along with their VSP application. Q. Do I have to repay the Voluntary Separation Pay payment if I return to active duty at a later date? A. If an individual voluntarily returns to active duty for 180 consecutive days or more, they must repay their VSP. If they are involuntarily recalled from the Individual Ready Reserve, they will not be required to repay the VSP. USC Title 10, Section 1175(a) offers more specific information regarding repayment for members who return to active duty.

Q. Will I be subject to recall while serving in the Individual Ready Reserve? A. Yes. This is inactive duty and members will be subject to recall, as are all individuals serving in the IRR. Generally, IRR members are not required to perform duty or meet annual training requirements.

Q. If approved to separate under VSP, am I eligible for an inter-service transfer? A. You may apply for inter-service transfer; however, Airmen volunteering to return to active duty, Guard, Reserve or another service will have to repay their VSP.

Q. Can I receive Voluntary Separation Pay and apply for a Palace Chase separation? A. No. Palace Chase is a program that allows separation from active duty before active-duty service commitments are

complete. In return, the member agrees to serve three times the number of years remaining on the Active Duty Service Commitment in a traditional selected Reserve or Guard position. If desired, Airmen may apply for Palace Front if approved to separate under VSP. Please contact an in-service recruiter for more information concerning Palace Front. If the officer later qualifies for retirement pay through Reserve or Guard service, the VSP payment would be repaid from their Reserve or Guard retirement pay.

Q. If approved to separate under Voluntary Separation Pay, how soon can I expect to receive my pay following separation? A. Airmen approved for VSP can expect to receive payment approximately 25 days following their date of separation from the Air Force. Personnel officials will inform the Defense Finance and Accounting Service of the separation and eligibility to process the lump sum payment, subject to applicable federal and state income tax rates. Airmen who have not received payment after approximately 25 days may inquire about payment by calling Total Force Service Center at (800) 525-0102. Q. If approved to separate under Voluntary Separation Pay, and I later become eligible for retired pay, do I have to repay my VSP? A. If you later become eligible for retired or retainer pay under Title 10 or Title 14, U.S.C., based on active duty service for which you received separation pay, you will have an amount deducted from each payment of that retired or retainer pay until the amount deducted equals the total amount of our VSP.

FORCE MANAGEMENT

9

FY14 force management to include senior NCO retention board WASHINGTON – Plans are underway to convene a June senior NCO retention board to consider eligible master sergeants and senior master sergeants for retirement, officials announced Dec. 12. The board is one of several fiscal 2014 force management measures that have been or will be implemented to transition toward a leaner, well-equipped, and trained force, said Brig. Gen. Gina Grosso, the Air Force force management policy director. "While early retirement and separation boards are not unprecedented, this will be a first for the enlisted corps," she said. Only master and senior master sergeants who are retirement eligible will be considered for retirement during this first enlisted retention board.

"We know the Air Force is going to get smaller, but we don't know how much smaller yet," Grosso said. "Force management programs will enable us to adjust the force size accordingly. 'Routine' voluntary programs have served us well, so far, but we expect to face much more stringent budget pressure and must now plan for and work toward a smaller force." Every service is working to reduce its footprint and vector members toward career fields with ongoing and increasing mission requirements, she added. Force management programs coupled with such force shaping programs as officer and enlisted retraining help the services retain high-performing members who will make up our leaner future force. "Enlisted retention boards, though new, are tools we can

use to modernize our personnel management policies," Grosso said. "Boards will be charged to identify for retention Airmen who are consistently strong performers." Specific information, including eligibility cutoff dates and retirement dates, will be provided once plans are complete, but senior NCOs should not wait until then to review and update their records. "If you are eligible for retirement within the next 18 months and want to continue serving, make the time to review your records to make updates or corrections," she said. To access the secure sites to review your personnel records, or for more information about retirement opportunities and other personnel issues, visit the myPers website at https://mypers.af.mil.

AF to convene chief master sergeant retention board in June

WASHINGTON – The Air Force will convene a chief master sergeant retention board in June to select chief master sergeants for retirement no later than Nov. 1, 2014, officials announced December 11, 2013. The fiscal 2014 Chief Master Sergeant Retention Program is one of several force management programs slated to be implemented during fiscal 2014 focused on transitioning to a leaner force, said Chief Master Sgt. Harold Hutchison, of the Air Force Chief Master Sergeant Management Office. The fiscal 2014 force management programs include multiple programs designed to shape the future force. Additional programs can be found on the myPers website at https://mypers.af.mil. "A chief's retention board is new for the Air Force, and

there are some understandable concerns," Hutchison said. "Our sister services have successfully executed similar programs for years, and we are working closely with experts throughout the Department of Defense to ensure we implement deliberate processes." The chief retention program will include two phases. During phase one, chiefs in specific career fields may apply for voluntary retirement in lieu of meeting a retention board. Applications will be accepted through March 15, 2014, and active-duty service commitment waivers will be considered on a case-by-case basis, according to Senior Master Sgt. Lisa Smith, of the Air Force Chief Master Sergeant Management Office. Chiefs with 20 years of total active federal military service

from identified overage career fields who do not apply for retirement before the phase one window closes March 15, 2014 will be considered by the board during the second phase, Smith said. Chiefs approved for retirement under phase one must retire no later than Jan. 1, 2015, while chiefs selected for retirement by the June retention board will be required to retire no later than Nov. 1, 2014. For more information about the Chief Master Sergeant Retention Program, including eligibility criteria and application instructions, go to the myPers website at https://mypers.af.mil. Enter "chief retention" in the search window.

Retirement Authority (TERA) in lieu of meeting the board, but must request a retirement date of 1 Aug 14.

Airmen with less than 6 years of TAFMS may also request to separate in lieu of meeting the Retention Board; however, they don't qualify for separation pay due to time in service.

Q. Why is the Air Force conducting Retention Boards for enlisted members? A. The Air Force had to make a difficult but necessary decision to reduce the force. The Air Force has felt the effects of high retention rates over the past 18 years which can be contributed to our current economic standing. Many additional factors such as job security and improved compensation have made the Air Force a very attractive career choice. However, due to widespread force structure cuts the Air Force must take measures to reduce and shape our force while making deliberate decisions to posture our force for the future.

Q. Are there any Air Force Specialties exempt from this Retention Board? A. The board will target Airmen in overage specialties using a performance based strategy to optimize the quality we retain in our Air Force.

Q. How will I know if my AFSC is being considered for retention? A. AFPC will publish a matrix on the Force Management page of the myPers website at the link below. This matrix will identify the overage AFSCs and grades being considered for retention under this program. https://myPers.af.mil/app/answers/detail/a _id/25484

Q. If my AFSC meets its intended numbers of losses, will my AFSC meet the Retention Board? A. No. Be sure to continuously monitor AFPCs website to see what AFSCs will meet the Enlisted Retention Board. At any time, an AFSC can be removed from consideration. Q. What volunteer programs are available

that will help my AFSC meet its intended number of losses? A. Voluntary programs include retirement under the Temporary Early Retirement Authority (TERA), Voluntary Separation Pay (VSP), and voluntary retirement or separation in lieu of meeting the retention boards. All volunteer programs implemented to reduce our end strength can be found on the Force Management page of the myPers website, found at the link below: https://myPers.af.mil/app/answers/detail/a _id/25484 Q. How many Airmen are the Air Force trying to separate by this board? A. Historical retention rates and force structure cuts has resulted in a vast majority of enlisted specialties being over manned which has forced the Air Force to take measures to reduce the enlisted force by approximately 25K Airmen.

Q. How will Airmen know if they are being considered by the board? A. Commanders will receive a list of their eligible Airman and eligible Airman will receive notification by AFPC via a personal e-mail through the virtual MPF. Q.

No; however, commanders will have an opportunity to complete a Retention Recommendation Form to convey the quality of each Airman.

Q. What will the board consider? A. The board will focus on duty performance, depth and breadth of experience utilizing evaluations, decorations, an Enlisted Retention Brief, and an enlisted Retention Recommendation Form to make their decisions. Additionally, the member is authorized to write a one-page letter to the board to address any matter of record an Airman believes warrants consideration.

Q. When will the results of the board be released and how will Airmen be notified if they have not been selected for retention? A.

Never say never – mom takes nursing to new heights By Maj. Wayne Capps 315th Airlift Wing Public Affairs

INCIRLIK AB, TURKEY – Imagine ... your child just graduated high school and is deciding between college and the Air Force. But at 47-years-old, you join instead. That is exactly what Capt. Karen Stewart did. Stewart is a newly qualified flight nurse with the 315th Aeromedical Evacuation Squadron at Joint Base Charleston, S.C. "After my son graduated from high school, he was trying to decide if he wanted to go to college or join the military. We started looking at different Air Force jobs and I saw flight nursing," said Stewart, who is a civilian nurse of 11 years. "I thought I was too old, then saw the age limit was 48 and I knew I had to try it." Her son decided to go on to college but Stewart contacted the Air Force Reserve recruiter. "The recruiter said I probably wouldn't make it at my age. I told him that he didn't know me and to send me the application," said Stewart. "It took 12 months to process my application but I was accepted and swore in 2 months before my 48th birthday."

Stewart said she was proud to prove the recruiter wrong. "I took my Air Force Physical Fitness test two days before my 48th birthday ... and scored an excellent on it." On her first overseas mission to Incirlik AB, Turkey, she was fully engaged in the training at hand. "She is jumping in and was doing what needs to be done. She is a real team player," said 1st Lt. Howard Crowley, medical crew director on the mission. "Her civilian nursing experience is very helpful. In nursing you never know what will happen next, you focus on critical thinking and that really helps here," he said. "I love flying, this has been great," she said. "I think every day how blessed I am to do this." "I don't want to see anyone get hurt but if that is the situation, I want to be able to help them," said Stewart as she reflected on the wartime nature of being a flight nurse. "If it were my child, I would want someone like me to bring them home." "I am excited about starting this new career," she said, as she was finishing up the last leg of her first overseas training mission. "I can't stay in long enough to retire because of my age. But, I can stay in until I am 61-years-old and I plan on doing that!"

Serve and learn – reservists juggle mission requirements and higher education By Maj. Wayne Capps 315th Airlift Wing Public Affairs

INCIRLIK AB, TURKEY – Managing a full-time college course load can be hectic, but add the mission requirements of a reserve flying schedule and it can be downright difficult. Tech. Sgts. Shayne Katirgis and Kyle Simpson, reserve loadmasters with the 701st Airlift Squadron at Joint Base Charleston, S.C., managed to fit in a C-17 mission to Incirlik, Turkey, and other flight duties while on Christmas break from school. "Not many college students can say their part time job is to fly around the world," said Sgt. Simpson, a full-time student studying Physical Education at Charleston Southern University. "This is the best part-time job a person could have." Simpson, who finds it somewhat easy to manage his reserve requirements and his school life, has been a reservist for the past three years and looks forward to graduating in May and becoming a teacher. "Sometimes you feel like you never get a break, but it is absolutely worth it," he said. Sgt. Katirgis, on the other hand, finds it harder to balance school and flying. "I have to be honest, it is hard. Balancing a school schedule and the reserve is stressful," he said. "I might have two tests back to back, then have to drive down to Charleston to fly. Sometimes flying gets in the way ... but it is worth it because I enjoy what I do." Katirgis has been a reservist since 2006 and is a student at South University's College of Pharmacy. "You just have to do it," he said when asked how he manages the busy life. "You have to just put your nose to the grindstone and do it. Getting a doctorate isn't easy anyways, but adding the military to the mix just adds to the stress," he said.

But, Katirgis credits the training he has received while in the military with helping him deal with the hectic schedule. "My military training really helps with the stress in dealing with an accelerated 3-year doctorate program," he said. "You just have to prioritize everything." "My Christmas break is a perfect example of some of the stress that can be added. I had to make up my October, November, and December UTAs (Unit Training Assemblies) while on break. Other students get to give their brains a rest but I have a check ride. But, there is a payoff," he said while reflecting on the benefits of being a reservist. "You get a chance to get away from school U.S. Air Force photos / Senior Airman Bobby Pilch and experience a different Master Sgt.

"I Master Sgt. Dennis Moore, evaluator loadmaster from the can basically choose when I want to fly.

"When I get back from a weekend trip and tell my class- summed up the pair's chaotic schedules. "We all have to balmates what I did, they can't believe it," said Simpson. "Like I ance home, life and being a reservist. It is what we do," said said, I think this is the best part-time job a student could Moore. "They don't do it for the money, they do it because they are patriots." have."
