Plus they can't even manage to arrange Summer Camps anymore...... Partly because the imploding Air Force is too small, but no doubt also because some beancounter decided that they were too expensive.

Anyone who ever served as a UAS QFI back then knew that it was only during Summer Camp that the First Years started to work as a team rather than as a collection of individuals.

I gather that change of command and recruitment of UAS members under the new process was intended to commence in September 05. That's only a couple of weeks away now; has the absurd notion that 'access' to a mere 10 hours flying training per year will 'nurture recruitment' to the intended University Grunt Squadrons been challenged successfully?
