Both beautiful. That's smart going TMS. I really don't see how a fleet squadron will get it done any other way at this point. I figured it would be a snap in the reserves where everyone already has their civilian career pretty well set, but we had half a dozen fall outs at the end and almost lost the whole deal. I was prepared to buy two or three to get it done, but I've heard of guys doing that before and being stuck for a very long time. In fact I know of a current squadron CO who acts like a used car salesman every time a new guy checks in; trying to get rid of his extra Breitlings, lol. I'm very happy we pulled it off and excited to get mine in a few months.
