| Did he just enlist in the Air Force? If so, he will have to finish basic training first 6-weeks at Lackland AFB, San Antonio TX., then technical school 3-4 months. Finally, the Air Force doesn't usually send new folks overseas.
It does happen, but it's not the norm. Especially, if he only requests stateside bases on his "dream sheet." A "dream sheet" is a wish list one submits requesting certain bases. The Air Force tries to match ones request with openings based on rank and skill level. All Air Force personnel must submit a "dream sheet."
Concerning probation, I'm not an expert on this subject. However, don't expect to go overseas during his first 3-years. In addition, Germany and Italy are choice assignments and difficult to get anyway. |
