WHEREAS, the Department of Defense relies heavily on the Reserve forces (operators and aeromedical evacuation personnel) to fly peacetime and wartime operational and support missions;
WHEREAS, the active duty requirement for flying is a minimum of 4 hours a month to receive Hazardous Duty Incentive Pay (HDIP) and Aviation Career Incentive Pay (ACIP); and
WHEREAS, the Reserve forces HDIP/ACIP is prorated based on the number of man-days, annual tour days, drills per month; and
WHEREAS, the Reserve forces are required to have both active duty and inactive duty flying hours to receive HDIP/ACIP monthly; and
WHEREAS, Reserve forces are not allowed to bank active duty flying hours; and
WHEREAS, Reserve forces are being required to log more flying hours per month than active duty forces to receive HDIP/ACIP for duty performed in a month; and
WHEREAS, HDIP/ACIP is an incentive for hazardous duty performed;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Reserve Officers Association of the United States, chartered by Congress, urge the Department of Defense to correct the inequity in Hazardous Duty Incentive Pay and Aviation Career Incentive Pay for the Reserve forces regardless of crew members' pay status (active, inactive, or civilian).
