Thinking about Air Force Reserve?
Active-duty Airmen considering a transition to the Air Force Reserve face requirements and options ahead of making the move.
Whether life circumstances change or active duty simply isn’t a good fit, the Air Force offers two programs that allow members to continue serving part time: Palace Chase and Palace Front. Both are offered to active-duty officers and enlisted members, giving them the opportunity to transfer from active duty to an Air Reserve Component.
For officers, a scroll is required before your date of separation and can take up to nine months to complete. Without it, a break in service will accrue.
For more information or a list of options, contact Master Sgt. Michelle Shutler, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base’s in-service recruiter, at 937-271-9707.
