The planes will always need ejection seats. You could maybe cross train into something else that interests you in the air force. I would make them kick me out before I would get out in this economy.

I understand your complaint, but being twice your age and putting two kids through college and professional school, there is too much instability right now to think it's greener on the other side.

Thanks for risking your life for us, I hope your decision brings you happiness and prosperity. Be safe.

I can understand your frustration with the military these days, but you really need to think this decision about separating completely through. You need to give Stuart Adams' advise some thought. I retired after 21 years in the Air Force (1983 to 2004) and currently work in the Air Force Contact Center or as they call it today "The Total Force Service Center". I talk to guys in your situation all day, every day, and if you would be interested in talking to me and allowing me to hear what you are thinking concerning your situation, I might be able to give you some things to think about or alternatives to your current situation that might have you reconsider staying in. Maybe not until retirement, but possibly doing a CONUS tour after Korea so you might be in a better position to separate at that time.

My DSN is 665-5238 and I work 0630 to 1530 CST Monday - Friday, if you're interested. No pressure if you do or don't...just trying to help take care of our own.

Scott

I agree with Stuart Adams.

The grass may be greener on the other side but it's just as hard to mow!
