New Board Stood up?
- Thread starter breamo
- Start date
I heard that the AF was standing up a board and/or thinking about standing up another board. I asked by PEBLO about this earlier this week actually and she said that she hasn't heard about that. Where did you hear this from? I hope to god it's true! That would turn my frown upside-down!
You think there would be some type of memorandum or part of a paper trail we could use to confirm this development. I'm hoping that they did stand up another board, the PEB processing times for the AF has been among the slowest in the little over a year I've been here. Press releases or other announcements from the service-PDES personnel would not be a bad idea, especially for this type of news!
I heard it from a friend of mine who went thru NCO Academy with someone who works down there at Randolph....
I know its a ,my friends brothers cousin said kinda thing but I was hoping someone knew for sure

The guy I heard it from is a really reliable dude that doesnt blabber about stuff though, so that is good.

It's true (well, with some caveats)....
When I was a the Formal PEB, I asked one of the board members about this. I was told that the AF was looking to fund additional Informal Board members (specifically one doctor/medical officer and two Admin officer board positions). These were to be permanent hires. I suppose that, like anything, things are subject to funds and availability of personnel, but this seemed like a reliable report of what is likely to happen.
I can see this eventually speeding up AF cases processing, but I don't see how this would impact most folks here on the forum already past the MEB. Seems like it would take a bit of time to get the members up to speed and actually processing cases.
(BTW, in a pitch to have folks check out the twitter feed, I posted a "tweet" on this a few days ago; I am not sure if the twitter feed will be a useful feature or not, but I think that if it will be, people have to use it...so, I am trying to get people to use and interact with it to see if it takes off and is useful). I have some other comments about the backlog (yes, there is a large backlog at the moment) in AF cases. I will post on this later.
