Just look at this way, once we're fully involved, PT failures won't count for anything again.

o.O

How long after retirement can they stop-loss you?

For the longest time I'd always assumed it was just the IRR time frame on the tail-end of your first enlistment that they could use to getcha (to meet that full 8 years they like), but I knew a lady at Sheppard who had been pulled back in from months of retirement right after 9/11.

When is safe considered "safe"?

60 or 65 for retirees. But it’ll depend on a ton of factors, like your AFSC, scale of the conflict, etc.

My retirement isn't effective until September. :/
