D. A combat systems officer (CSO) with less than 18 years of aviation serviceExplanation

This means that the CSO can earn credit towards receiving additional pay for their continuous aviation service. The other options, such as the pilot with 18 years of aviation service, the flight surgeon with less than 12 years of aviation service, and the ABM with more than 18 years of aviation service, do not meet the criteria for accumulating OFDA credit towards ACIP entitlement.Rate this question:
