Attention former Marine aviators

The Marine Corps wants you back on active duty. The service is sweetening the pot by making selectees immediately eligible for bonuses of up to $100,000. Captains or majors who flew or commanded six Marine aircraft are eligible to return to active service, according to a service-wide message announcing the new policy. Aircraft include the AV-8B Harrier; F-35B Joint Strike Fighter; F/A-18 Hornet; MV-22 Osprey; KC-130 Hercules; and CH-53K King Stallion. The Marines wants pilots to sign two-, three- or four-year contracts to return to active duty. Those selected will be automatically career-designated if they weren't prior to leaving the service, and those willing to stay in longer could be given preference. Return to Active Duty submissions are due by Nov. 6. (Source: Military.com 09/30/20) https://www.military.com/daily-news/2020/09/30/marines-offer-former-pilots-100k-come-back-active-duty.html
