Comma
1. When the family came here from Russia, they were penniless.
2. When he was in the airforce he flew Tornado jets.
When you use "when," sometimes you use a comma (1) othertimes not (2).
What's the rule here?
Please explain this. Thanks.

Personally I do not know any rule here (or am unaware of it), but from the look of it the comma here serves as a break/short pause in long sentences.
