All I know is what I read, set the facts straight.
So far I've heard from Pelican posters that Stop-loss is not in the Air Force. Is it the Army, National Guard and reserves only?
Also stated is that medical personal have been exempt.
Set the record straight, all I know is what I read.
Sample:
Stop-loss used to retain 50,000 US troops

A recent Pentagon report written for the Department of Defense by Andrew Krepinevich, a former military officer, said stop-loss was a "short-term fix" enabling the Army to meet deployment requirements, but that such policies "risk breaking the force as recruitment and retention problems mount."

Let me have it, and keep it here, not in that other thread.
