The Air Force has decided to extend the deadline for officers to apply for Voluntary Separation Pay to May 31, just a couple of weeks after making the cutoff March 31. The service still plans to hold a Reduction in Force board in June, targeting officers in overage career fields in 1995, 1996, 2000, and 2001.
Air Force depots are not typically meant for quick repair jobs, but during Operation Epic Fury, the service moved some of its stateside heavy maintenance capability forward to fix battle-damaged aircraft closer to the fight.
