Re the swapping of AFPS75 to 05 or vice versa, the OTT was purely based on a "snapshot" of your circumstances at the time, decisions were irreversible aside from as stated earlier those made redundant within a certain time frame or if you inconveniently died, your spouse could elect to change. The only exception I know of was if your terms of service were incorrect at the decision making time or you had every reason to believe you were under certain terms of service (for example, a signal from your own desk officer telling you that you are now IRC and have a job until your 50th birthday) but then it subsequently turns out that the AAC are not going to conform with the rest of the Army, the OTT board have been sympathetic. What galled me was not a single acknowledgement from anyone accepting the error and recognising the angst it had put so many of us through. It's all about people.
