Im currently 12 years NG and transferring to active under a new MOS. Thank you for all of this. It's truly sad that its 2022 and we gotta constantly watch out for ourselves. As a medic i say the same shit. KEEP TRACK OF YOUR RECORDS. It's sad but true. The Army will lose your shit and according to them "It never happened"

Im starting this process now. Hopefully it doesn't take too TOO long. Update: my paperwork is currently at Brigade level. Yes, you read that correctly. (January 2022): I have since been fully approved and I’m currently at Fort Lee for reclass. I’m just gonna post the rest of my army career (within OPSEC) in this comment section.

@@thatguyjy7704 there are ALOT OF variables to why someone would like to switch over from guard/reserves to active.

My question is: once my conditional release gets approved and everything, what is our living situation going to look like? Will there already be a place for us when we arrive to our duty station? Will I have to live in the barracks and make her stay back home until I find a place?

I just got enlisted in the Army National Guard. I leave for basic training on April 12th. But here’s the question I want to ask. It’s a simple yes or no question. How many college credits and hours do I have to have in order to be a commissioned officer in the active duty US Army, and can I become a officer in the active duty US Army with an associates degree?
@american-cody6608
@american-cody6608 3 жыл бұрын
To be a commissioned officer I believe it’s at least 90 credits or a bachelors degree for like OCS or direct commission. You could do green to gold to go from enlisted to officer if your on active duty

Sorry for being a year late. I just commissioned through federal OCS at Fort Benning two days ago. I have a bachelors degree, and so did everyone else that I was there with. A few even had advanced degrees. I would say you’re very unlikely to commission with just an associates degree. Just being honest with you.
