I thought this decommisioning talk sounded familiar. Would this move put the A-10's out in reserve units or in the boneyard?

What does Rummy have to say on the subject? I thought he was a voice of reason, at odds with typical pentagon-think.

OK, my opinion:

I suspect the AF Brass tossed this out there to see what happens. The Army & Marines may very well come forward with proposals to take the A-10 over. THEN we'll see what happens.

As I understand it the earlier proposal put many A-10's in the boneyard, but not scheduled for destruction. Other opinions on this? I'm not current or former AF.
