I guess USA has $ to spend on illegal aliens, Green projects, etc. But not some special skills Airman. The Congress could fix this …

Seems a bit stupid but civil services are very good at a particular brand of stupid. I had a friend with key skills in a particular department whom the government body in question wouldn't pay more and would only contemplate promotion with a secondment under their belt, but because of their special status they couldn't take secondments. They transferred to another department. *Slow handclap*

Though I can see the reason to push retention of cybersecurity-trained people over other areas since that is a huge growth area everywhere.

Yes, but don't screw over, other troops. Especially these Spec Ops, etc. types. These troops are needed to go to war … all of them Cyber, CCTs, PJs, etc.

Another place to get $ that could keep out USAF, etc. strong & combat ready.

I believe the modernized quote is, "Pray for peace…pretend that war isn't a possibility"

Legion 417 Sep 2022 12:58 p.m. PST

Indeed … That is more realistic …

Sickening!

You can bet the politicos will NOT vote to cut their pay, nor will they cut benefits and spending on the MILLIONS of illegal aliens streaming across our border and staying here, which are crimes.

It appears those in charge have their priorities … and it is very skewed …

Legion 419 Sep 2022 7:30 a.m. PST

Again those in charge have their priorities, spending millions to change names and removing statues, going Green when the tech is not there yet, wasting money on woke, CRT, etc., indoctrination … And my favorite … spending millions on illegal aliens …

But US Troops are living in moldy substandard barracks, etc. –

It would appear that "market forces" are at work. Capitalism trumps everything.

Looks like the USAF will not cut pay for special troops. Someone must have come to their senses !

Albeit the POTUS recently said the US would send troops to defend Taiwan. The US is going to need all the troops they can get !
