The Air Force has openings in chronic undermanned career fields for enlisted airmen who have been told to retrain—or else—but first they needed to submit an application by Monday. Those who failed to meet that deadline can kiss their blue suit goodbye. And, airmen on the hit list who want to stay in the service have until Feb. 28 to apply for a specific new job. So far in Fiscal 2007, 1,073 airmen selected for involuntary retraining have had new jobs chosed for them by the Air Force Personnel Center.
The U.S. sent Air Force F-16s over central Syria in a show of force following the Dec. 13 killing of two U.S. Army Soldiers and one American civilian interpreter by a gunman linked to the Islamic State group.
