Air Force Reserve seeks applicants for full-time duty

  • Published
WASHINGTON --  The Air Force Reserve is looking for officers and enlisted people to fill full-time Active Guard and Reserve positions.

In the past 15 years, the number of AGR slots has increased from 400 to more than 1,900 authorizations.

“We have opportunities in many specialties but a larger concentration in career fields such security forces, combat rescue, intelligence, maintenance, space, pilot and personnel,” said Maj. Dawn M. Suitor, deputy director of the AGR Management Office in the Pentagon’s Office of Air Force Reserve. “Currently, Air Force Reserve Command’s hard-to-fill positions are in security forces, intelligence and combat rescue. We are actively seeking volunteers for these programs.”

Reservists in the AGR program serve under the authority of Title 10 of the U.S. Code and receive most of the benefits afforded to the active force. They qualify for an active-duty retirement, provided they attain career status and can serve 20 years active federal military service.

The program offers tours of duty on the Air Staff; at Headquarters Air Force Reserve Command, Robins Air Force Base, Ga.; at Headquarters Air Reserve Personnel Center in Denver; in AFRC units; and with other major commands.

Information about vacancies and application procedures, as well as more details on the program is available on the AGR Management Office’s restricted Web site at http://www.re.hq.af.mil/agr/agrhome2.html.
