Show February 12,2004 Doors Continued From Page C graduates may be approved for the program. Air Force ROTC cadets may apply to be commissioned directly into Air Force Reserve jobs for commitments, instead of the typical four-yetour of active duty. "With individual mobilization augmentee sitting at 94.8 percent, this is a great opportunity to fill some of our current vacancies," said Lt. Col. Nancy Robinson, director of assignments at Air Reserve Personnel Center headquarters in Denver. "We're trying to pull out the stops and make the transition from the active duty to the Reserve as smooth as possible." Individual mobilization augmentees are reservists assigned part time to active- - duty units, backfilling or deploying when required. Being an IMA is a flexible way to be in the Air Force, serving a minimum of 12 days throughout the year and two weeks of annual tour each year. Just like traditional unit reservists, IMAs may be mobilized by the president during wartime or contingency operations; however, IMAs are assigned directly to active-dut- y units instead of Reserve squadrons. "We're trying to be proactive and take the Air Force's overages," Colonel Palmer said. "If we have a qualified person, we'll do everything we can to sign them up in the Air Force Reserve." Anyone interested in finding out more about the program should contact the recruiters located at their military personnel flight. Air Force Reserve recruiters are located at 65 bases worldwide. During from active duty, meeting with the recruiter is a required stop. The purpose of the appointment is to find out if joining the Air Force Reserve is a viable option for the separating airmen, enlisted or officer. Colonel Palmer said. "We have found that when our recruiters help an applicant get exactly what he or she wants, things work out best for both the applicant and the Air Force Reserve," Colonel Palmer said. "It's a win-wi- n situation for us and the individuals leaving active duty," Colonel Mungavin said. "They'll get a more flexible way to serve their country, and we'll retain their skills and experience to accomplish our Air Force mission."
