Chances for promotion among enlisted Reservists just doubled, thanks to a policy change approved by Lt. Gen. John Bradley, head of Air Force Reserve Command, that advanced the promotion cycle from an every other month process to a monthly process. An AFRC release states that the command’s policy now is in consonance with USAF’s Future Total Force concept.
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.
