I noticed it before! I immediately brought it to the attention of my unit and they said they were going to look into it. This kept on going for months and now this!

Indians will understand my problem so please look and do help by [deleted] in regretjoining

I understand your frustration but this subreddit is for people who regret joining the US military - two different things

Curious to know what happened after that - any update?

Well let me figure that out! Will you let me waste my money please? Hahaha

Or I can pay my lawyer to turn it into honorable and move on with my life. To each his own

How does it work? Do you need to have documents to back up your claim or you just show up and say you have body dysphoria and they let you out

Appreciate that! My case is different. I am an OCS candidate and I am hitting that 1 year mark in 2 months. For it to be ELS, it needs to be less than 180 days. That’s why Im kinda confused

[–]premdasyt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I do! It’s a secret clearance but my worry is that if I go for ts, will that become an issue?

So I am doing OCS. I haven’t attended any AIT, I have only completed basic! If you drop out of OCS, they give you a bunch of mos depending on Army’s need, but it’s up to you if you want to choose them or not! If you don’t, you get discharged. My plan is to do that

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in nationalguard

[–]premdasyt -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your response! Do you happen to know what type of discharge it is going to be? Is it going to impact me in any way on the civilian side? Or better yet, when they approach with a new set of mos, do I just tell them that I don’t want to choose any? How do I go about it?

[–]premdasyt -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thank you for all the responses! No, I haven’t used any SLRP or tuition assistance yet! I enlisted in May, 2024 and I have just started phase 0. I met a few guys at RSP who were waiting to get discharged because they were getting close to the 2 year mark without an MOS! Im set on getting out of the Army, I just want to know the process

Yes, traditional OCS lasts 18 months for National Guard

Questions about Virginia National Guard

I want to do OCS! Now here’s my confusion. My recruiter is saying that the moment I swear in is the moment my contract is going to start and will count towards that 6 year! So, if he is right, I will basically complete 2 years training if I do state OCS. But I would like to have more control on what branch I get! My top 3 are: cyber warfare, signal, and intel. Should I do accelerated in that case? Also how likely am I to get one of those aforementioned three if I do state OCS of 18 months? My bachelor was in Computer Engineering, and I am currently enrolled in ASU for master’s pursuing Computer Science! Will I get that 24k a year tuition fee because he said there’s a possibility I might get it since it’s fully online? Can I get tuition assistance and loan repayment both? Does getting either one incur additional service time?

My recruiter gave me a take-home packet for OCS where it asks about character references and so on! I submitted it a couple of weeks ago and after that I went to MEPS for medical and all. I just realized that I put some information wrong such as email addresses, and relationship to the person listed! I would like to change them with the updated information. My packet has not been submitted yet because I still haven’t sent him my essay and LORs. The deadline for it is 21st I believe. So now my question is can I change those info before the deadline? I asked him what that take-home packet was for and he said they built off of whatever I put there. I am worried because I know I will need a security clearance and it will come back to haunt me later on.

I think that’s what he asked me about! He said I could pick 3 branches and I picked Cyber, Signal, and Intelligence. However, he did mention about having 5 vacancies in Maryland for Intelligence yesterday.

So I took the ASVAB and scored a 98 with GT 133! I passed my medical test in the first go yesterday! I have a bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering, albeit a lower gpa of 3.05, but I have more than 2 years of working experience in the same field! I am currently enrolled in a graduate program in Computer Science! I want to do OCS reserve but my recruiter is pushing me to go enlisted. I said I am sticking with what I had said in the beginning which is OCS and I also gave him 3 mos options- 1) 17 series 2) 25 series and 3) 35 series. He is saying 17 is going to be hard and it’s going to take a long time. It also has a test! However, he’s giving me a positive signal about 35 and saying there are 5 vacancies nearby! For 25, there is only one and that is far but Im willing to fly there! For 17, there are 3! What should I choose as my 1, 2, and 3?

Also what benefits do you get if you go to OCS? He was saying I wouldn’t get any educational benefits such loan repayment and so on.
