Has the USAF reinstituted Stop Loss?

Just curious -- I haven't heard that they have, but there are a lot of Guardsmen and Reservists activated (including yours truly), so I was wondering if maybe I'd missed it.

I haven't heard anything about stop loss either, more part-timers are getting called to play for a year though.

Given that airline industry is going down the toilet rapidly, I don't think the USAF has anything to worry about.

When hostilities start in Iraq, I think we're going to see massive layoffs (perhaps as much as 10,000 pilots). With the airlines looking to break their unions, new work rules will probably mean that most of those guys will never go back.

I hope I'm wrong.
