    CAFTDTI Accomodation Interpretation

    Questions for the admin gurus. Some of my folks are getting denied what I consider fair entitlements and the Wing Comptroller is being stubborn to be polite. Domestic TD with overnight in a place where no quarters are available. Commercial accommodation is authorized but given the last minute...

    Transport within place of duty

    I have a question about travelling within your place of duty. Let’s say you are employed at location X in city A and are regularly required to travel and work from location Y still in city A (not on TD: as part of your regular employment, about 2-3 times a week).  There is paid parking at both...

    Who should own CAS & why it can't be trusted to an Air Force (from A-10 retirement thread)

CAS is only one of the missions...

    Aircrew coping as well or better than regular soldiers"

    What about the distance between a sniper and its target?  Pilots can kill considerably more people in 1 pass than an infantryman may kill in a career, but they don't seem to be affected by it to the same level that someone in a front line ground unit does.  I think that being detached from the...

    MPRR Update

    I am curious, when you complete a course, who is responsible to update your personal file with the completion of the course?  According to my MPRR, I haven't completed BOTC, Phase III, and Phase IV, but I have completed everything in between.  I remember, at least once, pointing out to an OR...

    I tried a search (DIN, internet and here), but nothing came up. I've been told by multiple sources at my unit of the existence of a Quality Of Life (QOL) Fund for each unit that aims at improving QOL withing the Unit Lines.  Despite the multiple sources, nobody can find any solid reference to...
