I don't want to contradict or offend you, UpState, but the Services do have civilian support personnel. I've applied for several jobs in civilian roles nationwide, including on Air Force bases. I haven't had any interviews with them but they do exist. How well they pay is unknown to me beyond the ranges posted with the announcements but they look OK. The benefits look like the usual federal package. -Rocky

That's what I thought he meant.

Civilian employees actually work for the government and do not enjoy the same benefit package that the military personnel do. I assumed (yeah, I know) that his sister was in the Air Force.

Problem is were paying a substantial amount in benefits when we retire.

I'd gladly pay for benefits now when I'm working then when I'm retired and losing my pension to maintain health benefits.
