So, this is making them press for people eligible for CPW. Has anyone heard about this or have more information about this? So does that mean those that are eligible for CPW will have to apply for it if they’re hired at a heavy squadron?

Apologize for the silly question but how would the Air National Guard be activated in this type of situation? I have heard of it in emergency response distributing food and water, etc. However when it is more of a dangerous threat would the pilots or others in the base be trained in this type of response? Thanks!

Thanks! Depending on the type of unit, the pilots will be involved in airlifting, logistics, etc. Probably not the boots on the ground though. Enlisted people and non-rated officers can be on the ground but more as a second string if the Army isn’t enough to handle it. Source: was part of the response to the civil unrest in June and was trained in riot control. 1

Scooter14 Posted January 16, 2021 Posted January 16, 2021 I’m willing to bet every CONUS ANG unit that has a mobility mission is working this weekend to deliver Army National Guard and Air National Guard forces to DC with at least one aircraft. My state sent 25 Army, 25 Air so far and has three jets against it.Those 50 are above and beyond the ones we have mobilized to vaccinate, augment security within the state and man call centers for unemployment support and vaccine information.I’ve honestly never seen anything quite like this in 18 years of being in the Guard.

They were super delayed due to covid, ops tempo, etc. and pretty sure they only reached out to those selected for zoom interviews, and that was 9 months post deadline
AW91 Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 Has anyone heard any updates regarding Rushing the ORANG in February?

Burger Posted January 22, 2021 Posted January 22, 2021 Anyone know of/know where to find the AFRC FY21 Pilot Boards schedule? No luck on google. Thanks!
AW91 Posted January 28, 2021 Posted January 28, 2021 Just received word that the ORANG will not be hosting visits before the interview notifications

S_E Posted January 31, 2021 Posted January 31, 2021 Just sent in my ORANG app. Good luck to everybody on here!
goodflightcowboy Posted February 3, 2021 Posted February 3, 2021 Anybody hear yes or no from CPW? I got a random email from an AFRES recruiter that said "congrats again on your selection" but did not refer to what I had been selected for. Thinking either mistaken identity or I missed an email from the CPW folks.
