Reply to Active Duty to ANG? Prior to Wings
Except for extreme one-off situations, I’m unaware of a program that allows ANG units to pick up pilots going through UPT prior to finishing T-6’s.

These all sound good. Recent hire interviews really catches my eye but I’d love to listen in on all of these.

Not exactly the most exciting content but something about navigating Air Force documentation/regs could be handy. To someone unfamiliar there’s a lot of ambiguity in what’s current, where to look, etc. Could go a long way towards helping people help themselves.
