Deploy or get out starts now: What you need to do to stay in the Air Force
By: Stephen Losey  
Airmen who haven’t been able to deploy for more than a year: Your time may be up.
The Air Force on Feb. 19 officially enacted a policy — directed last year by former Defense Secretary Jim Mattis — that could lead to the separation of airmen who have not been able to deploy for at least 12 consecutive months.
“We expect all airmen to exercise personal accountability for their deployability status and to take the necessary steps to maintain their readiness,†said Air Force Secretary Heather Wilson, Chief of Staff Gen. Dave Goldfein, and Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force Kaleth Wright in a memo dated Jan. 30. “Commanders will ensure airmen understand what is required and ensure the necessary resources are available to achieve our goal of a 95 percent or higher deployable rate within their units. The defense of our nation requires airmen and the Air Force to be ready to deploy at all times.â€
