Son's (records only) first time meeting the E8 board. Didn't make it. He would have sewed on with only 12 years. He knows he going to have to bend over and take a position on a NAF somewhere. Lol.

Sorry. Chain of Command layers:

Examples of a NAF are 8th Air Force, 3rd Air Force, etc... 8th being HQ'd at Barksdale AFB, La and the 3rd is HQ'd at Ramstein AB, Germany
