So Big Army is gonna try again at telling unit commanders to bust critical people out of their structure for awhile because they came up for a school, slotted against a possible future appearance at the top of the list?

Sounds to me like another way of insuring that the professional REMFs get to continue polishing themselves while the ones living their lives between downrange, a brief nap, JRTC --> downrange, repeat ad nauseum end up 'terminal' or RIF'd. Sure has alot of fancy words & phrasing, though.
