This is STRANGE: Air Force halts voluntary separation pay, 15-year retirements [View all]

http://www.airforcetimes.com/article/20140305/CAREERS02/303050031/Air-Force-halts-voluntary-separation-pay-15-year-retirements

The Air Force Personnel Center has halted processing of early retirement and voluntary separation applications for both officers and enlisted.

In a message sent to major commands Tuesday that was obtained by Air Force Times, AFPC said it has delayed processing applications for Temporary Early Retirement Authority and voluntary separation pay “while sustainment requirements for projected force reductions are further reviewed by the Air Force.”

The message said AFPC expects to resume processing the applications “in the near future,” but has not yet set a firm date. AFPC said it will update commands once the review is finished and processing resumes.

AFPC would not comment when reached by Air Force Times, saying “any information on this topic would have to come in an official release.”


Keeping those options open?
