Officers and enlisteds who have been deployed at least 300 days during a 365-day-long tour in areas where hazardous duty pay is authorized can now qualify for advance assignments or in-place 24-month deferments, the Air Force Personnel Center announced Feb. 19. Those interested should submit their applications to their unit commanders in a form letter. For more information, see the center’s Web site at http://www.afpc.randolph.af.mil/.
