Nah, in the KC-46A the Boom Operator will be in the crew compartment sitting at a console. The best a loadmaster can do in civilian life is stuff suitcases in the belly of a 737.

Seriously, if the goal is a civilian job, then he’s better off working a flightline job and getting his A&P license, or any one of dozens of other career fields.

I did 4 & 3/4 years in the ANG, then 22+ years in the USAF, and 5 years in the FAA, all of it, sitting on my butt, looking our windows and running my mouth.
The FAA's 5 years was defiantly lucrative and the entry level salary was more than double my last year's pay in the USAF.
Loadmaster jobs are highly needed by ALL the airlines, and offer a great way to see the world, without getting shot at, or undermined by a Kenyan Turd.
