Earlier this summer, the Air Force offered transgender Airmen and Guardians with 15 to 18 years of service the chance to retire before the 20-year mark. Then it turned all of them down.
Airmen scheduled to retire or separate early next year may have to wait a little longer for their official orders to do so, as the Air Force is running low on cash to cover moving expenses.
