I went through the 91-94 drawdown in the AF. On the officer side they had to slash mostly O-3s and below. They first riffed all the reserve officers, which was about a third. Then they went after the prior enlisted with 20 years or more with the SERB. Then they reduced the promotion % to Major.

That was still not enough, they waived the service committal for Academy grads and others. They even had a limited 15 year retirement. Personnel has many management tools available to accomplish the downsizing, most are not pretty.
