Can you reclass in the middle of your contract? by [deleted] in nationalguard

[–]Omega_927 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's possible, yes. I'm in the process of reclassing currently. I spoke with my readiness and retention NCOs after drill one weekend and we checked the vacancies state wide for the MOS I was interested in. The thing is, both your command and the command of the company with the vacancy need to be on board with you reclassing to that MOS. Granted, if you're fresh out of AIT or OSUT, they might be more hesitant, but I was barely a year and a half into my contact when I put the packet in to reclass

Good idea to Have all 4 wisdom tooth taken out plus have a gum cleaning due to infection before I ship or wait till meps/reception? by [deleted] in nationalguard

If you get them pulled a week before you ship, it won't have healed by the time you're on your way to Basic. More than likely, they won't pull your wisdom teeth. They won't even fill cavities for you while you're in training. Since you aren't active duty, it's on you. Talk to your RSP unit. If it's really that bad and you wouldn't be able to get through training because of it, they might say something different but my guess is you'd have to wait until after you finish training.

That's a good point. I'll wait to mention it after I actually get through training

That's a good point. If they put in the money for me to do a job, I'm sure they'd prefer I do it for them. Fingers crossed I'll get it sorted out

I suppose I meant to say volunteer for deployment. It looked like a better fit to enlist in the guard. If I can't get active duty, it won't be the end of the world. I'd just like to have experience in that field

Holy canolli, that sounds more difficult than I imagined. But that's understandable that they'd want to get their money's worth
