    I was wondering if you could share some of the discussion you had with LTC Dave Grossman with me.

    CRSC for UAV Pilots?

    TexasTACP, The key piece of info you are missing involves the HVIs. The US military has about 60k total 'drones' in its inventory and about .1% of those are engaged in actual over the horizon activity (aka flown from the states). The Air Force is pretty exclusive about this last category. Uncle...

    UAV count as combat ?

    Ok, as I said before, my orders WERE title 10... yet, somehow, the operation name of what we were doing was classified. http://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/foreign-policy/item/16164-the-pentagon-s-secret-wars-you-don-t-have-the-right-to-know What I am saying is that it should have been a set...

    UAV count as combat ?

    So, before anyone else saddles up on their high horse with accusations of drones and civilian carnage, please note that is VERRRY possible for the following to have occurred: A manned asset spots the suspected nefarious activity. A hand over to an evil drone occurs. A bigger manned asset is...

    UAV count as combat ?

    Ok, next up is the CRSC issue. I've included my AF Form 356 from my formal board (with PII masked, of course). I need information from anyone that has gone through the CRSC application process WITHOUT it being recognized as combat related by their service branch, please. I know the DoDI...

    UAV count as combat ?

    I didn't even know what CRSC is. Yeah, I googled it and that would be something to consider. Though, my question is for the 50% discharge versus 30% that the VA has me at. I didn't write the rule, I just want to know how it will be interpreted. We technically... scratch that... supposedly...

    Yet people do it,.. am I correct? Or because you, apparently, don't then that obviously means nobody else does either?

    Unemployment

    Military members transitioning for active title 10 federal orders only. Title 32 AGR won't qualify to change states, I don't think.

    UAV count as combat ?

    I have mild/major (I don't recall which) depressive disorder, PTSD, and OCD... according to my VA psychologist. I would like to comment that dropping and taking the responsibility for a bomb are two separate items on the scale that one could create to represent a continuum of weapons...

    Yes. Is there a third option?

    UAV count as combat ?

    I've never deployed. My job is safe from most of the horrors of combat, here, stateside. I have 11.5 years in the Air National Guard... and about 7 years of it activated (mostly title 10 federal orders). I work (yes, currently still involuntarily activated) in a psuedo aircrew position (kill...
