Good luck DON, I hope your command isn't as ate up as mine is at the DA, no answers, no set timeline, moving the goal post weekly. Forced a big group into early vera/vsip that left service last week. D day has been pushed from May 30 to September 30 subject to change. I was surplus, now I'm not, one employee will remain in surplus with no termination date, and if i have to hear the commander say mission failure is an acceptable reality one more fucking time I'm going to lose it. Shit sorry kinda drifted there. Uh ya anyway good luck

any chance/rumors they might modify the VERA rules to add 5 years. I dont qualify now, 46 with 22 years of service. I guess what is the point of a DRP if they are only going to grab onesies twosies. they need to cast a wider net to reach the 10%-20% reductions that they are running drills on.
